"But Nalia..."
"Let her go,"Joe said angrily. "We don't need her here."
"Joe! How could you say such a thing?"
Frownibng slightly, Joe sighed. "Fine. You can stay if you want."
Kara coughed into her hand.
Joe frowned even more. "Fine! You can call me Jay. Everyone else does. I don't know why Kara hasn't said it yet."
"It's impolite."
"Yeah, right."
