IAN

           "I didn't see anything," said Janet in a panic, when she saw ⨊ looking at her as the guys left. "I didn't say anything," answered ⨊. "Seems like Emma needs to be taught where she stands in the real world," said Janet getting annoyed as she thought about her. ⨊ just smiled not saying anything. "Can I ask you something?" "Didn't I tell you never start you questions like that? Just ask," "About Ian, how is he? I mean did he pass the test?... Not that I am prying or anything I'm just curious. Sorry, I was way out of line," added Janet when she saw ⨊ glaring at her. "Why are you two here? Why didn't you leave with him?" "He wanted us to look after you," "The truth is?" "He wanted us to keep an eye on Ian to make sure he doesn't hurt you and if he did anything to make you sad...we were to let him know," she finished in a small voice. "What is it? Say what you want," said ⨊ seeing that Janet wanted to say something else. "We also wanted to see Ian and check him out. Not that we have an opinion. We were just curious when you told him about Ian," "And now that

you have seen him," "He is very interesting and his atmosphere is very dark. That's why I was surprised when he was acting all friendly with everyone,"

"I question his sanity," said ⨊ sighing. "Why?" "Didn't you see how he was with me? That's not normal. We don't even know each other," "It just means that he likes you a lot. And is very protective of you and cares about you... Not that I'm on his side or trying to defend him," said Janet in a panic. "Like I said he's just a passerby. Nothing more. He feels trapped and he sees me as a way to escape his life. That's why he is behaving like that. Once he is free he will pass me by without noticing me. So don't get attached to him," said ⨊.

"But don't let him get hurt,"
