Chapter 95: Dealing with idiots

Henry noticed how tired Journee was after checking the footage all day. First, she was checking to find the discrepancy in the officers' statements and then to find the mole. To help her he brought a cup of coffee. He also offered his help to check some of the videos, but she politely declined.

"Give your eyes some rest," said Henry.

"Hmm," smiled Journee and lifted the cup of coffee that Henry brought. "Thank you for this."

"Really!?" scolded Henry.

"Okay, no thank you, give it back," teased Journee.

"Yeah, this is the right reaction. When you say sorry or thank you, it seems as if something is off. But when you taunt and tease, it feels like the normal reaction, the right reaction, like the world is all right, everything has a meaning," Henry kept babbling.

Journee rolled her eyes and kicked his shin. He started jumping on one leg and cried, "ow!"

"Speaking of 'ow', don't forget to take your medicine that David prescribed you," smirked Journee.
