"The second person we chose was Theodore Wilson."
Scarlet's smile faded so quickly it almost felt animated. Hesitant claps were heard throughout the people around her but she could only hear them as if she was miles away from the room.
She wished she was.
Her body then broke out in a cold sweat and her heart ached with an emotion she knew too well.

Yet I am the insufferable one?"
