We got stranded because you didn’t have an extra tire for the van.”
Ahhhhh omg my baby
“I think you need a hardass on the outside, too,” he informed. “You like this girl, so fucking tell her. Let the chips fall where they may and move on.”
I need a hardass like Hen
“Come on. I’ll pretend to be her.” Henrik gestured for me to talk. “You should probably practice groveling. You do know how to grovel, right?”
