Anthony texted: Are you there?

Thalia replied: Yeah, I am.

Anthony sent another text: I need your help with something.

Thalia replied with a sneering emoji: You need to work on that attitude if you’re going to ask someone for help, kiddo.

Anthony frowned as he texted reluctantly: My dear Thalia who’s the prettiest woman on Earth, could you please help me out with something?

Thalia nearly spat out her drink when she saw his message. She couldn’t help but wonder if Anthony had written that with a flirtatious smile or with clenched teeth.

Regardless, she enjoyed receiving compliments even if it wasn’t sincere.

Thalia: Good boy. At least you’ve got the attitude part right.

Anthony: Pretty girls like you should protect kids like me!

Thalia: You’d have to be an ordinary kid for that to happen.

Anthony: So, are you going to help me out or not?

Thalia: I’ll think about it.

Anthony sent the following message with a smiling emoji: Okay, in that case, I won’t hold back anymore. If I recall, the person you offended previously is still hunting for you all over the internet. I don’t mind sending him your picture, you know?

Thalia’s eyes instantly went wide with shock as she replied: What the f*ck, Anthony? Have some boundaries, will you?

Anthony: That depends on the situation.

Thalia tightened her grip on her phone as she replied: I really hate being threatened.

Anthony: So?

Thalia: Keep in mind that I’m not doing this because I’m afraid of you. I’m just choosing to let you win this time. Now, tell me, what is it that you need help with?

Anthony chuckled when he saw her submit to him in the most defiant way possible.
