Sabrina exhaled deeply as she looked up at Aiden, "Or what? You gonna string me up and torture me?"
Aiden rolled his eyes in irritation as he slammed the door shut
Sabrina knocked again
This time, Reg opened the door
"Ms. Sanchez." He smiled, "To what do I owe the pleasure? Did you come to teach Aiden another lesson?" Reg asked, grateful to see Sabrina in something other than her raggedy street clothes. He admired her femininity, wearing a simple brown cami dress with white polka dots on it
"No." Sabrina said, "The opposite. I'm here to apologize for my behavior the other day. I've done a lot of reflection and I realize the way I handed the situation was poor."
Reg smiled, "I think we owe you a thank you. For humbling my arrogant son."
Sabrina looked surprised
"Come, come inside." Reg smiled, opening the door for Sabrina
Sabrina stepped inside, watching as the community doctor examined Aiden's stitches

"He's fine. His ego is more damaged than anything else. Come. Come with me." Reg said, grabbing his notebook, leading Sabrina out of the home, to the patio
"This is beautiful." Sabrina said, sitting down on the bench
"I heard you have quite a background." Reg said, "You're handy with electrical things, mechanical, and you worked for the CDC, Ms. Sabrina."
"I did. I'm kinda the jack of all trades - master of none. I know a little bit about everything." Sabrina said
"Let me develop you." Reg said, "I'd like you to help me grow Alexandria."
"Me?" Sabrina asked, tilting her head to the side
"We need growth and advancement." Reg said, "I can't do it alone."
"Okay. Okay. Deal." Sabrina nodded, tucking her hair behind her ear
"Now, let's begin." Reg said, opening his notebook.
Sabrina turned her attention to the back door as it opened, revealing a blonde haired woman with glasses
"Denise!" Reg smiled, "Returning my book?"
"Great read. Really." Denise smiled, handing the book over to Reg, "I'm sorry, I didn't know you had company."
"This is Sabrina." Reg smiled
Sabrina stood up, smiling as she shook Denise's hand, "Hi, nice to meet you."
"Oh, man. What happened?" Denise asked, noting Sabrina's bruised knuckles
"You should see that the bruises on her knuckles match the ones on Aiden's face." Reg said
Sabrina inhaled softly, "Again, I am so deeply, deeply sorry."
