Hank was silent, imagining the scenario, and quickly recomposed himself. He carefully put the medication away in the private locker.

Caden then sent a message to Alice: “Who taught you to say thank you like that?”

Alice replied: "Isn't that necessary?"

This left Caden both amused and frustrated.

Shortly after, Alice asked, “Did I fall short?” She added, “They're pretty expensive: $180 each. You only bandaged my arm. Isn’t that enough?”

Caden scoffed. “Thanks for giving me over a thousand.”
