“I can do it myself,” Emmeline refused.

“Can your eyes handle it?” Adam said patiently. “You can’t even see the bowl and utensils.”

Emmeline hesitated.

“Let me do it,” Adam said. “Just think of me as a friend.”

“If you want to be my friend, then you should take me home,” Emmeline said coldly. “Not leave me here like this!”

Adam nodded. “You can trust me.”
