142Please respect copyright.PENANAULM6RahnrR
142Please respect copyright.PENANAAQLRVVX5l5
So I did and they listened with bated breath. They hung on my every word like I was really someone special. Ha, I guess I am. But I did leave out what happened with Anton and kept to the story I told Sever.
142Please respect copyright.PENANAOcC4pHZMj0
142Please respect copyright.PENANAVwsf8ibZPI
After I finished explaining there was a period of silence and contemplation. I starting to get nervous again, say something.
