"It is generous. He's like that. If you refuse, he might get offended." Well, I don't want to do that." Great! Let's go!" Vonda grabbed Pyx by the han... and dragged her out the door.I went back to work on bills and invoices that constantly plagued my existence.The stores on my block were mostly clothing stores.
