I stopped, turned around, and felt like giving him a piece of my mind.

But before I could react, Ernest sternly told him, "Leave."

"And who are you to tell me to leave?" Jimmy stood his ground with the fearlessness of youth, acting as if he was above everyone else. "I'm the one who's not allowing you to pursue her," Ernest stated clearly, every word sharp and decisive.

Looking at his face, with its sharp angles all exuding an intimidating sharpness, I saw him in a new light, feeling a tightness in my heart.
