Ren Said Quote by Lia Habel

“Geez, woman, you're gonna dislocate my jaw." "Well, don't do that in public , you brute!" "Wow." Renfield adjusted his glasses. He was sitting across the table from them with a book. "I feel so privileged, being an audience to this-" "Shut up, Ren," the other two said simultaneously.” quote by Lia Habel
