"You''re such a..."


    Frank was well aware of the weird rivalry between Helen and Vicky.


    He reached out, smacking Vicky''s rear even as she clung to him like an octopus.


    He wanted to punish her for using him to mess with Helen without his consent, but the bounciness almost left his resistance crumbling.


    Still, he quickly said, "Vicky, Helen must have something important to tell you. You''d best go talk to her."


    "Hmph."


    Vicky released him grumpily but winked at him as she opened the door. "Harder next time, daddy."


    "Ahem..."


    Frank gulped even as he stared at Vicky''s butt and started coughing violently.


    Naturally, it was not over just then.


    Just as Helen was about to leave the hallway, Vicky opened the door and poked her head out, beckoning, "Wait, Helen. Don''t run off so soon! Why don''t you join us?"


    "Ahem!!!"


    Frank coughed so violently he almost hacked out his lungs.


    On the other hand, Helen wheeled on Vicky, flushing in embarrassment amid the five minute silence.


    "Y-You''re shameless!" she snapped through gritted teeth.


    "Hey, what''s that look for? And you call me shameless when you actually hesitated for a moment? Perhaps you want it, but you''re just too shy?"


    Even as Vicky kept teasing Helen, Helen did not argue and fled instead.


    Vicky looked on,ughing so hard her shoulders were shaking.


    "That''s enough," Frank said exasperatedly. "Quit teasing her."


    Vicky was really mean and naturally had the upper hand with someone serious like Helen.


    "What,


    Vicky s it hurt you so much?"


    to sh a sly smile.


    maybe you''ve been cheating.


    while I was away?" Content t


    "No way."


    Frank threw his hands up. "We''ve been sorting one mess out after another. We don''t have time—"


    Vicky raised a brow. "Really? Are you saying that you''d cheat if you have the time?"


    "What is that logic?" Frank smiled in wry amusement.


    Vicky closed the door, staring fixedly

    and smiling as she


    d him like a stalkingel


    "Then show me."


    "Show you what?" Frank backed away even as she kept approaching.


    "Show me if you''ve been cheating on me! Now,e on!"


    "No!" Frank kept backing away and resisting.


    "Let me see!"


    "No..." Frank ran out of space to withdraw and had to run past Vicky right then.


    "Oh, you!" Vicky stood akimbo and pouted grumpily.


    Still, she had an idea... they had all


    the time they


    in the world, so


    y not just bring Helen a Could''


    time?


    Helen was always shy anyway and fickle anyway, so if Vicky pressured her a little, she would definitely cave.
