Barlow, having enjoyed the banter, finally took the glass, his gaze fixed on her lovely visage.“Alright, I'll drink it. You’re even tougher than my aunt.”

She quickly queried, “What are you up to?”Pulling on his pants, Barlow responded with a teasing grin, “Heading to the restroom. Care to accompany me?”Karina found herself speechless once more. She shot him an eye roll before turning to put away the glass.
