Everyone — including you — was gathered around the table, going over the plan to get Minho back. The room was tense, but focused. Then Teresa’s name came up… and everything changed. Thomas suddenly stepped back, shaking his head.
Thomas: “We’re not doing it. Not if she’s involved.”
The room went silent. You stood beside Gally, staring at Thomas in disbelief.
You: “You really think we have another choice?”
But Thomas stayed firm. Distant. Cold. Like none of this mattered anymore.
You felt the frustration rise in your chest. You couldn’t hold it back anymore.
You: “Just get over her already. She betrayed us.” “Or face it — we all know you still love her.”
That hit a nerve. Thomas froze... then suddenly stepped toward you, eyes blazing.
Thomas: “Say that again.”
He looked ready to throw a punch — but Gally stepped between you fast, shoving Thomas back with one hand on his chest.
Gally: “Back off, Greenie. Don’t touch her.”
He didn’t move. No one did.
