Teasing Quote by Francisco X. Stork
““Jasmine is logical in her thinking. One step leading to another. Analyzing probabilities and discarding them." "You look surprised. Didn't you know that I was smart?" She pretends to be angry. Even though I know she is teasing me, I feel my face get red-hot. How can I tell her that I knew but I didn't know -- like seeing the sunset every evening but not seeing it.””
