"Uh… Um…," Jack never thought of bringing any gift.
"Bwahaha…! Look at your face! I got you good, didn't I?!" Thelgrun burst into laughter. His beard rocked back and forth as his body shook.
"Oh…? Oh! You are joking, hahaha… Good one, mister president! Haha," Jack joined the laughter.
The laughter slowly died down. As it ended, Thelgrun said, "Hah… that was a good laugh. Okay, seriously now, what did you bring for our first meeting?"
"Oh…?" 'Shit! He was not kidding about the gift,' Jack cursed within.
"You are… You didn't come here empty-handed, did you?" Thelgrun asked.
Jack paused for a beat before saying, "Of course not! I'm not that bad-mannered!"
Peniel, who was sitting on one of Jack's shoulders rolled her eyes. She knew Jack never thought about bringing any gift. He was indeed a bad-mannered person when it came to socializing.
