    Just as Skr was about to unscrew the pen to take a look inside, Joe said abruptly, "This isn''t my pen."


    Skr turned back to look at hint and asked, “What do you mean it''s not yours?"


    "I''ve never used it before." Confusion shimmered in Joe''s eyes.

    In the end, she found out what was wrong. There was a tiny, nearly indiscernible bone nestled into the top of its

    "Have you got anything lined up for today? Let''s y together!" Rowan invited.


    Joe nced at Skr and replied, "Alright, I''ll head over in a bit."


    After hanging up, he said to Skr, "Rowan invited me to go out with him. Would you like toe?"


    Skr''s interest was piqued. She asked, "What are you guys going to do?"


    "Badminton."


    "Alright. Give me ten more minutes."
