Owen fixed his captive with a dead-eye sort of stare. “Global finance is a course on terrorism.” He said with utter seriousness. If this line had been delivered by perhaps anyone else it would have been a joke. But he clearly was not kidding around.
Julianna kept seeming to move away from him, getting smaller and more crushed against the arm of the couch. Apparently, his closeness was making her uncomfortable. He scooted over some to give her a little more space, but he did so in the guise of closing up the ice cream and pushing it away on his coffee table. He hadn’t asked her if she was finished, but apparently according to him she was.
Owen narrowed his eyes in a look of skepticism as she described her reasons for quitting the sorority. “Is that really why you quit?” He pursed his lips and seemed to weigh her closely in his mind. “I feel like...you’re not telling the whole truth. I feel like it was a money issue.”
He was grasping at straws in that estimation but he had taken the chance to review some of Julianna’s bills when they were at her apartment. A sorority girl from Yale who had graduated with student loans. Finances were a problem for her. Sorority girls at Ivy League schools didn’t typically need to borrow to attend school. It felt like an accurate conclusion.
At some point, the conversation came to a lull and they settled to watching a few episodes of Dexter in relative silence. During this Owen finished off three more beers giving himself a decent buzz. He nodded off somewhere in the middle of the third episode having somehow neglected the presence of his captive. Or perhaps he expected her to behave herself. Perhaps she seemed docile enough.
