Her ears pinken "Ia baby is weird"

"Nope Don’t think that’s weird either You’re young--and super fertile, apparently--and I can’t keep my hands off of you" I lean down and plant a hard kiss on her surprisedText me when you knohen the next appointment is I’ll see you later"

And then I take off before she has the opportunity to argue withand awesoet ho Ifthe beans, and I’ve got to respect Sabrina’s wishes We’re a team nohether she likes it or not She’s scared out of herto happen next I figure at this point all I can do is be there for her
