Suppressing his darker thoughts, Jonathan instructed, “Call me the moment you sense danger; nothing is more important than your safety!”
“Okay!”

answered.
Kason sounded relieved. “You finally picked up! If you hadn’t answered, I was about to come and find you. Sierra, let’s meet up.
“Sure, let’s meet at the institute; I was about to head over anyway.”
When Sierra arrived at the institute, Kason was already there, dressed to the nines, holding a bouquet of roses waiting

Saying this, Sierra lightly tapped Kason’s chest, “Step up your game!”

How could I
Kason didn’t take Shane’s words to heart: looking at the dewy rose left aside, he said nonchalantly, “If it has thorns, just pluck them out. Besides, it’s the thorns that make it exciting!
Shane said no more and hung up.
After a while, he made another call asked a couple of questions, then hung up again.
