With the way his shoulders hung and the corners of his mouth drooped, what would be in his eyes?<br/><br/><span style="color: #4080FF">"Oh no, no trouble at all,"</span> she replied.

She tore herself hastily from Jill, a guilty expression on her face.<br/><br/><span style="color: #4080FF">"Hey, sweetie.
