After Carl came out of the room, he saw Jessica on the sofa. She looked glum.
"What did you just say?" Carl looked down at her condescendingly.
Jessica rolled her eyes, turned the other way, and ignored him.
Carl said, "No way."
Jessica reclined on the sofa and muffled.
"I want to go out."
"No."
Carl's directly refused.
Jessica sat up straight in anger and then stood on the sofa. She put her hands on her waist and shouted, "I can neither use my mobile phone nor go out. Carl, what else can I do?"
Standing on the sofa, she could look down at Carl. Although she wasn't much taller than him, she still felt that as if she was stronger than him.
Carl exchanged glances with her for a few seconds, then suddenly smiled and picked her up, "Stop messing around."
He put Jessica back on the sofa and said, "I'll watch a film with you."
He was so annoying, she thought.
He did it again!
Finally, she yielded because of his gentleness.
Carl asked Jessica to pick a film.
She chose one from the disaster genre.
Actually, Carl didn't really like it. He preferred to watch a romance.
However, he was the one who asked Jessica to choose the film.
So he had to watch it with her.
