"You are alive!"
The joy in Norbert's voice was so genuine, so vivid, it simply couldn't be faked. And despite the massive bomb that the woman just dropped on everyone, even she failed to stop herself from smiling a little when showered with this kind of emotional reception.
"Norbert..." the policewoman muttered. She then pressed her stump even harder against her chest, causing her expression to sour. She then averted her face to the side. "How many times have I told you not to call me like that?"
'Dang,' Mathew froze for the second time. Even though the woman averted her eyes and turned her face away, he stood in a different place than Norbert. And as such, he could easily see the blush that the woman attempted to hide from her colleague.
'Could the two of them be a thing?' he then asked himself, gritting his teeth as he realized what that could possibly mean.
For today and the next 3 days, there will only be a single chapter a day. Real life events and I kinda need to acclimatise myself at my parents place :_:
