Okay, creepy.

And finally, he got nigh to me, looking into my eyes, and reminding me how tall he was. This was actually a perfect opportunity to kneel his balls, or maybe grab his throat and choke him.

He chuckled. “Why do you have to ask silly questions all the time?”

“How is this silly?” I frowned.

“Look, I didn’t walk up to you to waste my time, talking about nonsense.”

“Oh really?” I raised an eyebrow, looking at him. “Why did you come here then?”

“I only came to tell you not to mess with me. Don’t you dare raise your voice at

me next time.”
