He let a meaningful pause resonate between them before speaking again. And when he did, he did so with a soft smile on his face.[color=orange][b]"First question, Haley. Why did you let them treat you like a princess during the exams? You know just as well as I do that you didn't need any of that. It pissed me off watching my rival be defended like she's weak."[/b][/color][/indent]
