"Okay then, it is decided. You guys will stay while the others leave. However, those who are staying will have a quick meeting with us," Norman informed, and the others started to walk out of the hall.
"Thank you for listening to my suggestion," I turned to Norman, whispering so only he could hear.
"Say that again? It's not every day that Helanie decides to be nice to me," Norman hunched down dramatically, bringing his ear close to me to hear me clearly.
"I said—thank you for not being a douchebag for a minute."
I knew I was crossing a line, but somehow, it made Norman laugh?
Even I regretted saying it the very next moment, but his laughter made me believe maybe he wasn't so offended after all.
We went back to our rooms and waited for the hostel to finally empty.
