“Granny, I was also going to…”

As Remington took off, Lizetta was getting ready to say her goodbyes and follow suit, but Fiona grabbed her arm.

Fiona glanced over to Tina standing by, who nodded and went off to do her bidding.

Lizetta was a bit puzzled, but soon enough she saw Tina dragging Shirley over, who was putting up quite the fight and looking as sick as a dog.

“Let go of me, Tina! I can walk by myself!”

Shirley was brought over; as soon as she spotted Lizetta sitting next to Fiona, her face soured even more, and she shot Lizetta a death glare.

It was all Lizetta’s fault.

She had come over to the old house to chill today, but Granny happened to overhear her poking fun at Lizetta with her girlfriends on the phone.
