He turned to Isabelle, struggling for words, and finally said in a negotiating tone, “There’s really not much to see here. Next time, let’s bet on something else.”

Isabelle, pretending not to understand, asked, “Not much to see in what way?”

George was blunt. “Their physique in every aspect.”

Dylan thought to himself, Wow, he’s jealous. With his upbringing and education, Mr. George would never criticise someone’s appearance. Now he’s actually commenting on their bodies.

Isabelle agreed, “Yeah, they were pretty bad.”

Dylan chimed in boldly, “Ms. Jenkins, these guys have no abs, no chest muscles, and they’re as skinny as sticks. Their other parts aren’t worth mentioning, either. They’re nowhere near as fit as Mr. George.” He gave her a thumbs up, looking proud and enthusiastic about promoting George.

George shot Dylan a cold look.

Dylan realised his mistake–he had overstepped. Not only were George and Isabelle not that close yet, but it was inappropriate to make such comments in front of two other men and a young woman.

It was greatly inappropriate.

Dylan felt a wave of shame wash over him, compounded by the fact that Isabelle’s demeanour often made him forget she was just a teenager.

Embarrassed, Dylan quickly tried to apologise.

Isabelle interjected, “Have you seen them?”

She directed the question at Dylan, but her eyes were on George.
