Karl's fingers froze as he prepared to press the button.
Yes, what was he thinking? He was single, but she was married. That was the bottom line for him.
It was only appropriate if they were both unmarried.
"And…" Juanita winked, paused and blurted out, "And we even kissed. It felt pretty good, so why don't we try dating and see."
"Ahem." Karl choked again as he thought about the last time he was at the police station, when he and Juanita both accidentally fell down and pressed their lips together, the soft feeling still lingering in his memory.
His cheeks burned up and he reprimanded slightly, "Don't talk nonsense. I didn't mean it."
Just as the elevator came, he hurriedly entered the elevator.
At the moment the elevator door closed, Juanita's bright and warm smile was clearly reflected in the gap.
"Officer Karl, think about it, I'll wait for your news."
After seeing Karl off, Juanita returned to the box.
Joyce made a gesture to push her, "You really want to pursue him? Don't you confess in front of me, I'm so nervous my heart is going to stop. How embarrassing."
Juanita sat down and continued to nibble on the prawns, "It's my confession, not yours. Why are you nervous?"
"Of course we have to pursue love! It's so hard to meet someone I like, I can't let go." Her mouth was stuffed to the brim.
"They say that a woman pursuing a man is the easiest. I think you will finally get him." Joyce sincerely encouraged, "Karl is great and worth your love."
Juanita's eyes dimmed and there was a momentary dip, but it was quickly concealed.
"Don't worry, I'm the undefeatable Juanita! I'll get him!" Her mouth was stuffed full and she laughed brightly.
After eating, the two of them chatted for a while.
Until, Joyce got a call from Luther.
