James chuckles, not taking the bait of getting flustered by her. "You started it." He shrugs. "I think they got word that a rival gang was close by. They were so wrapped up in arguing whether they wanted to fight the other gang or run away, that they didn't see me escaping until I was across the street. They didn't pursue, with the other gang so close. Luckily, I never came across that other gang."
"Oh?" June smirked as she moved James' chin up with her index finger. "But do you have guts to prove it?" She said in a husky voice before grinning.
Then her face turned serious again as she let go of him. "Could you describe the men that attacked you?" She said somewhat offhandedly. Yet not offhandedly at all.
