Everyone looked at her.


I think Chad has lost his speech impediment with woman, Stephanie said.


Why did you say that? Francis said.

Every one wowed Chad who was blushing.


You did not have to tell the whole world Stephanie, Chad whispered.

Now Im shy, Chad said.


Well then, I wont go riding with you on your Firrari, Stephanie said smiling.


Chad suddenly looked down; hurt.
