In all honesty, I thought something like this was going to happen.
Obviously, the thought was minor, and I genuinely never decided to even humor it, because what were the odds that we would actually hold our meeting in another realm?
Still, just because I wasn't completely prepared didn't mean I was helpless.
"You seem a little troubled. Is it because you don't want to attend the meeting?" Merilyn asked.
Letting out a chuckle, she added:
"If you don't want to, then that's fine. I'll let them know that one of the main catalysts won't be present. After all, you're already late, so it's fine."
"Haha. I'm curious. Did you think you were going to intimidate me with this?" I asked.
I took a step forward and then stopped just a few inches away from Merilyn.
"I'm going through."
A slightly surprised look appeared on her face.
