Robert didn't dodge, but the bullet didn't hit him.
It grazed past his ear, drawing blood.
But through that action, Robert figured out something. "You didn't tell her, did you? You're such a coward. If
Debra found out that your love for her isn't what she imagines, would she still love you?"
With every word Robert uttered, Marion's gaze grew colder.

When she went to find a first-aid kit, she noticed the lamp in the living room was
on.
Descending the steps, she found the living room bathed in a dim, warm light, but no one was there.
She wondered if she hadn't turned it off earlier, but she decided not to dwell on it.
She remembered Barton mentioning that the first-aid kit was kept in the living
room.
"What are you looking for?" A voice suddenly sounded behind her.

"What's wrong?" Andrew asked, amused by her astonishment.
He was dressed in his usual white shirt, looking like he hadn't gone to bed yet.
"It's just rare to see you walking around," she replied.
