"Big Brother, do I have my own identification card?" Shea asked.
"Why are you asking about this out of the blue?" Elliot responded.
"Because everyone has their own identification cards and I want it, too."
"You do, but it's at home."
"Oh... Can you give it to me when we go home later?" Shea smiled.
"Why do you need it?" Elliot helped her find an empty seat.
"It's my identification card, so of course I should keep it." Shea opened her purse and took out a brand-new phone. "Big Brother, I bought a new phone. I can make calls from now on."
"???" Elliot looked up at the bodyguard.
The bodyguard immediately explained," Miss Shea bought it when she went shopping yesterday. She even registered a sim card with Mrs. Scarlet's identification card."
Shea had changed drastically and Elliot was slightly taken by surprise. Feeling proud of her progress, he said, "Shea, you can go ahead and get a sim card with your own identification card."
"Okay! When will we go home, Big Brother?"
She couldn't wait to go home.
"We need to at least wait until lunch time to head home. Don’t worry. Shea, your identification card is safe with me."
Shea nodded and switched on her phone. " Big Brother, can you teach me how to use my phone?" "Sure," Elliot responded with patience.
"Stop staring already, Avery! Your eyes look like they are about to pop out of your sockets." Mike waved his hand in front of
Avery.
Avery looked away awkwardly.
Elliot was teaching Shea how to use her phone and he seemed very sincere and patient at it. It had been very long since Avery last saw him behaving in such a gentle manner, so she couldn't help but stare.
She took a sip of water from her glass to try and conceal the panic on her face.
"Why hasn't Eric arrived?” Mike looked at the time. "He should be sitting next to you, right?"
"I talked to Chad last night," Mike lowered his voice as he leaned towards Avery, "I said that I've never seen you going on a diet before ?a)
