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.

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.
