Her words lingered in the air, devoid of any sign of guilt or unease. Despite the accusations being hurled at her, Lisa's demeanor remained composed, as if she were untouched by the mounting tension in the room.

Bryan's voice seethed with anger as he confronted her, his tone laden with frustration and certainty. "Isn't it obvious that you are the culprit?" he retorted, his words a sharp indictment. He powered through his accusation, refusing to accept any facade of innocence that Lisa attempted to maintain. The atmosphere crackled with unresolved tension as their exchange continued, each word laden with accusation and denial.

    Alora's eyes narrowed, her voice laced with skepticism. "So you're just saying that to tell me it's not good, it's not actually your first time, right?" she asked, her tone implying disbelief.Bryan's scoff was dismissive, his eyes rolling in exasperation. "I haven't smoked once. Even though I grew up around people who smoke, I never tried it. I don't hate smokers, but I correct them and advise them to quit if I can.
