She was glad that he was one of the people who understood when she was joking. Many took her seriously, escalating the conversation needlessly.
When Rodney began talking about his friend, a small smirk showed on Roux’s face. A part of it because she was right, and the other to lightly tease him. “Man, I was joking but you were actually looking for your crush?” She chuckled, continuing. “You want him to be your boyfriend and you just met? You’re bold, I like that. If you happen to need help with that, I could be your wingman… Wingwoman?”
