'He's covered in them? Must be in a gang, right?'
'He'd been thinking the journey was getting dull.'
'He could chat up the pretty girl to pass the time.'
'But with a brother like that watching over her, he didn't dare.'

Cecilia Adler gazed at the bustling station. 'City life is so much better,' she thought. 'The transportation is so developed. It's easy and convenient to go anywhere you want.'
'Unlike back home, where getting around mostly means walking.'
"Cecilia, want to come to my place first? Ian is definitely there at this hour," Titus Shaw said.
