Myrcella
Her weekend was a mix of amazing and horrible. She had a shitty time at home Saturday morning with Joffery ranting and raging. Sansa had told Joffery that she wanted to be done, then she had taken him back and she had to suffer watching him strut around the house when she took him back. He gloated and boasted to his friends that he had come over to drink and play video games.
"So she took me back after catching me with my pants around my ankles with another girl up against a tree and she still takes me back. Am I a good lire or what? I told her that the girl was giving me some pot, she totally bought that." Myrcella had overheard Joffery telling his friends.
She had walked away from the media room at that point to get ready for her date with Aegon. He had been at her house to pick her up at four o'clock to get her. She had practically ran out to see him and jumped on his bike before he had time to shut off the engine.
"Eager to see me are you?" Aegon asked when he handed her a helmet.
"Eager to get away from this house." She said yanking on the helmet.
She wrapped her arms around his middle and off they flew. He wove his bike in and out of the traffic and down the freeway. Aegon took an exit to the beach and they continued onto their way to the beach. They drove along the coast and they rode the winding and curving road. Myrcella was enjoying the sensation of holding onto him and pressing her body to his. They drove through little tourist towns and small village like places. After driving for two hours they finally stopped at one of the little tourist towns.
"I was thinking that we could stop here for dinner. They have the best fish and chips in the world." Aegon told her as they untangled from each other.
"I can't feel my ass Aegon. Don't get me wrong I liked the ride, but did it have to be so long?" She wined as they started to walk to the little restaurant.
"Do you feel this?" He asked as he grabbed her ass.
"Yes. I do feel that." She giggled. "And I like it."
She slipped her hand into his back pocket and they continued to walk in to get the "best fish and chips in the world".
"Aegon! It has been far to long since you were here last." A plump woman all but shouted as she saw Aegon.
"Hey there Betty. Can we have a table on the covered patio? Cella likes the ocean." Aegon said as he hugged the lady.
"Anything for you dear. And I am so glad to see that you have a girlfriend now. Cella is it?" Betty extended her hand to Myrcella.
"It is nice to meet you Betty. How do you know Aegon?" She asked as Betty led them to a table.
"He has been working here during the summer since he was a small boy. He comes and lives in this small town of ours with his uncle every summer. He is our bus boys." Betty gave him a proud maternal smile.
"You make it sound so glamorous. This sure is impressing the girl here. Two fish and chips, with iced tea please." Aegon asked.
"Anything for you my dear. And it is on the house. We will just take it out of next summer's pay." Betty laughed as she walked into the kitchen.
"So they must really like you here." Myrcella said as they finally sat down and were alone. She reached across the table and grabbed his hand.
"What can I say I am a lovable guy." He ran his thumb across her knuckles.
They stayed looking into each other's eyes. She decided to that it was time to run her foot up his leg and tried to flirt with him without saying a word. She was not sure if it was working, but she hoped that it was.
"Here you go dears. The world's best fish and chips." Betty said startling the couple.
They thanked her and started to eat the food.
"These really are the best fish and chips in the world. I love them." Myrcella said as they ate. "It was well worth the numb ass."
"Good. After this we should go down to the beach and watch the sunset. There is a cove that I know about three miles from here. It will be a nice view." Aegon said.
They finished their meal and Aegon and Myrcella got hugs from Betty.
"It was so lovely to meet you dear. I can tell that you make this boy happy. Keep it up sweet heart." Betty whispered in Myrcellas ear as they hugged.
"I will. For as long as I can." Myrcella whispered back.
They got back on to the bike and drove to the cove. Aegon had been right, the view was spectacular and the sun was just kissing the horizon when they arrived. They got off the bike and walked hand in hand to the beach and sat down with their backs against a log.
"Cella there is something that I have wanted to do all day." He grabbed her and pulled her onto his lap and wrapped his arms around her.
His mouth found her neck, nit the place that she expected to have his lips touch her first, but they sent of heat all over her body and made her want to explode. She felt his hand slide up under her shirt and roam over her slight dancers body to her breasts. She could not stand it another moment. She pulled back and forced his lips to hers and devoured him with her mouth. She let their tongues dance within her mouth. Her arousal was growing by the moment, and from her position sitting on top of him she knew that he was getting more worked up the deeper they kissed and the more he molded his hand to her chest.
She was moaning into him as he slid his hand into her bra and snagged her nipple with his fingers. He flipped his thumb across it. Myrcella started to writhe above him as he continued to work on her breast. With every swipe of his thumb she danced above him with small circular on his lap.
"You are going to have to stop moving if you don't want to end up having sex here in the sand." He panted.
"Well then stop playing with my boobs." She panted in reply.
"I can't." He said in a harsh voice.
"Then we are at an impasse."
"Trust you to use a big word when I am so worked up I can barely see straight." He growled.
She sat on his lap and giggled.
"It is getting late and the sun is almost down we should get going back to town. God I don't want to, but we have to go." Aegon said his voice full of regret.
"I don't want to go back. Life is shit back there." She pressed her head to his.
"Then come back to my house tonight." Aegon whispered.
Myrcella sat there in the lap of a man that she was greatly attracted to and knew that she really wanted to go home with him. She found herself saying something completely different.
"I have to go home. My mother would send the police after me. I really do not want to see my boyfriend arrested." She got off his lap and stood there waiting for him to get up too. She held out her hand and he took it and they walked to the bike.
Gendry
He woke up on Sunday with a nasty taste in his mouth and a head full of bees. He cracked opened his eyes and it felt like there was someone rubbing sand paper over them. He had a blurry idea of what had happened to him the night before. He knew that it involved a bottle of tequila and Sandor Clegane.
They had left the beach, went to his house, got the bottle and went to a parcel of land that Sandors family owned. They turned up some music and started to drink. If someone would have asked him how he thought he would be spending a Saturday night he never in a million years have said that he would have spent it drinking with Sandor Clegane. But that is indeed how he spent that night.
They had sat on the hoods of their cars and talked about Arya and Sansa. They were both hopelessly hooked on the Stark sisters and that there was nothing that they couldn't do to make them happen. He didn't really remember what had happened after they had drank half the bottle but he did remember talking about calling Arya. She knew that she was on a date but she was supposed to be his girl.
That was the last thing that he remembered. So when he woke up in the back seat of his car the next day he was not prepaid for the five text messages from Hot Pie.
Arya said that you called her last night. You having a good time? – Hot Pie
Who is this friend that you are with? –Hot Pie
So you want to ravage Arya. It is about time that you tell her that. –Hot Pie
Hey buddy are you dead? I do not want to go to a morgue and ID your body. Let me know if you need a DD. –Hot Pie
Okay heads up. Just heard from Arya and she is pissed. You and Sandor really? Watch your ass Monday and do not let her get you. –Hot Pie
What the hell. Had he called Arya? Had Sandor called someone too? Had he called Sansa? He sat up in his backseat and looked around. He was still parked in the woods. Sandors car was there still to. Gendry slowly crawled out from the back to the front. He opened the door and slid out of his car. He was bitching under his breath about cars being to low to the ground. He fell to the ground and he stayed there.
Sandor was sitting in his car with his phone to his ear. Gendry looked at the time and saw to was two thirty in the afternoon. He rubbed his eyes and decided that he should call Hot Pie.
"Gendry you are alive. I was going to come looking for you. Where are you? Do you need a ride buddy?" Hot Pies voice was loud and he felt like he was being screamed at.
"Can you not yell at me Hot Pie? My head feels like it is going to split in two." Gendry said closing his eyes against the sun and the sound of Hot Pies voice.
"So you did get drunk. Do you remember calling Arya?" Hot Pie laughed.
"No I do not remember doing that." Gendry sighed and rubbed his eyes. "What did I say?"
"That you wanted to do the dirty with her. You didn't use those words, but that is pretty much what it all boiled down to. Oh and you called her a cock tease and that she was stupid as well. Then Sandor apparently called Sansa and told her the same thing. What were you two doing together? Having a date or something?" Hot Pie said.
"We sort of ran into each other. Things went from there to sharing a bottle of tequila in the woods. I guess we got to talking and we ended up not thinking." Gendry said.
"As long as nothing happened between the two of you then it is cool that you found someone that understands what is happening with your love life." Hot Pie said in a cheery voice. "But him being your new best friend I do take offence to that, and I know that Aegon might as well if he heard that."
"He is not my new best friend. We just had a fling. God that sounds so gay. That is not what I meant to say. We had a good time. That isn't right either. We just got drunk and bitched about girls together. That is all." Gendry told Hot Pie.
"Don't worry; I know that you didn't mean anything like that buddy. But like I said I am glad that you found someone who knows what you feel like now." Hot Pie tried to reassure his friend.
"That is nice Hot Pie. Thank you for your confidence. I better go. I have to go home and wash my brain and get the tequila off me. If I stand to close to an open flame I would combust." He gave a small laugh then winced at how loud that it was to him.
"Get going then Gendry. And I was serious in that text about Monday. Watch out. Arya will be scratching out your eyes." Hot Pie hung up the phone and Gendry sat back against the side of his car.
He sat there and tried to think what he was going to do now. He knew that he had royally fucked up with Arya. Now he had to figure out what to do to fix it.
Sandor stumbled out of his car cussing at the sun. He looked down at Gendry sitting down on the ground and stumbles over to him and slid to sit beside him.
"I feel like shit. You look like shit." Sandor whispered.
"So do you. What happened last night? From what I can tell we drunk dialed the girls. I think that it was about two thirds of the way through the bottle."
"That is what I was can remember. I think that I called Joffery a douche bag when I was talking to Sansa." Sandor laughed.
"That is about time there pal. He is. I know that we went over this, but what the hell is she doing with that prick?" Gendry asked chuckling.
"I don't know man. I wish I could have taken a swing at him, like you got." Sandor leaned back his head against the car. "This is a little awkward."
"Yeah. It is. We lost our spark. I guess what we had last night was a one night stand without the sex." Gendry said.
The two guys sat there and laughed. Gendry wanted to keep Sandor as a friend he was a cool guy. They had a lot in common. More then just the Stark sisters. But that was not what was going to happen. They were in different worlds at school. They were in different social groups.
"I actually had fun last night." Gendry said.
"Me to. I had a good time as well. But I don't think that we will be doing it again. God it does sound like we did something more then get drunk and talk." Sandor said.
"We should be friends." Gendry said.
"We can't do that." Sandor looked at him.
"Yeah I know that. But come on we had a good time last night. Christ, I sound like a chick." Gendry rubbed his hands on his face.
"We both do. We should go. I need some food and a shower." Sandor stood and offered his hand to Gendry.
"Is this the part where we hug?" Gendry asked.
"After a bottle of tequila I think that would be to gay." Sandor called over his shoulder on the way to his car.
Gendry got in his and drove home. He wanted to call Arya, but needed to shower and eat first.
Sansa
She didn't think that getting back with Joffery would cause so many waves in her house. She was getting the cold shoulder from Bran and Arya was completely ignoring her. She had gotten an angry email from Jon. And she even got a call from Robb.
"Sansa what are you thinking? Arya and Jon have both called and told me what that Joffery guy is like." Robb demanded.
"How does Jon know anything? He has not met him." Sansa said defending herself.
"He has talked to Arya and Bran both. When have you ever known Bran to lie about something like this?" Robb shot back.
"They do not know Joffery. None of them do. Robb he is a good guy, most of the time." Sansa tried to defend her boyfriend, but even she knew that her voice lacked conviction.
"Is it true that he cheated on you? That Arya saw him in the act? Can you deny that?" Robb asked his voice rising in anger.
"He was drunk. The girl did sort of look like me. He could have been mistaken. He said that he was getting some pot from her that is all." She lied feeling horrible for lying to her brother.
"So he is a drunk and a drug addict? That is the guy that you want to date?" Robb yelled at her.
"He is not drunk or a drug addict. You experimented with alcohol in high school and don't try to tell me that you did not try pot." She snapped.
"What about him hitting people? Hitting his younger brother and sister like they are his personal punching bags, what about that?" Robb raged into the phone at her.
"That is hearsay. I do not believe that he would do that. He has never shown me anything except kindness and compassion Robb. I think that I am good for him and he is good to me. I really like him Robb. Why can no one seem to understand that?" She sobbed into the phone, she started crying as all the lies came out her mouth as she was talking to her beloved brother.
"Okay Sans don't cry. I am sorry. I didn't realize that this might not be easy for you. You are right it is your life. You can be with whoever you want." Robb tried to sooth her. Robb had never liked it when his sister cried.
"Robb, I just can't break it off with him. Everyone thinks he is a saint. Everyone thinks he is perfect. I just do not know what to do." She said into the phone, feeling guilty for telling him the truth.
"Sansa do you really like him? Or is there someone else. Jon mentioned that there might be someone that you might like." Robb asked.
"There is no one." She lied yet again.
She could not tell him that she felt revulsion when she was with Joffery. Or that she got butterflies whenever she was with Sandor. She didn't know what to do about his phone call.
"Robb what does it mean when a guy calls you when he is drunk?" She asked for clarity.
"Who called you drunk?" Robb was acting all big brother on her again.
"My friend Sandor. He is the person that has shown me around here and helped me catch up when I was behind. He is just a friend." She hoped that she sounded convincing.
"Well it can either mean that he wants a booty call or he just wanted to get something off his chest. What did he say?" Robb had a smirk on his face, she knew that much about her brother. He was a horrible gossip.
"He called me his "little vixen", and that he thinks that I am a fool." She laughed.
"He sounds like he likes you. Is there anything going on between you?" Robb the gossip was rearing his head. He was minoring in journalism; it was in his nature to find out a good story.
"He is my best friend Robb. But I think I might have broke it off with him." Sansa confessed.
"What do you mean you broke it off with him?" Robb asked clearly confused.
"He knew about what Joffery was up to the other night and didn't tell me. I sort of flipped out on him." Sansa felt her cheeks grow warm. She felt foolish saying things that way.
"That was stupid Sansa. He did nothing wrong. And you told him that you were not going to be friends with him anymore over something that was not in his control. He was doing the guy code thing. It is something that you won't understand. Give him another chance. He sounds like a good friend. And it sounds like you might need one." Robb advised.
"How do you know that I will need a friend?" Sansa asked confused.
"Arya is going to black list you for staying with "that filthy piece of shit" as she put it. You are not going to have a good time with her." Robb told her.
This was just what she needed. To have her sister mad at her. She knew what it was like to have Arya not liking her. They went a whole six months not talking when she was eight because Sansa had gotten to go to some stupid sports show that Arya had wanted to go to. Then only way that they had gotten back to talking terms was they were forced to go camping for a weekend with their father. He had forced them to talk to each other.
"You are right, I will need a friend. Thanks you Robb. I have to go. I have a paper to write." She lied again. If she didn't stop this soon every word out of her mouth would be a lie.
"Oh crap so do I. Okay I love you Sans." Robb said.
"I love you too Robb." They hung up the phone and she started to cry again. Her life was hopeless. She was in a pickle and there didn't seem to be away out of it yet. All she kept thinking was just a little longer; all she had to do was hold on just a little longer.
Sandor
Sandor walked into his chem class and saw Sansa sitting at their lab table waiting for him. He had ignored the calls that she had made him. He had not wanted to face her. He was embarrassed about what he had done. He had a fuzzy memory about what he has said and there was a nagging feeling that he had really stepped in it.
"Good morning Sandor. How are you feeling?" She kept her voice even and controlled.
"Fine thank you. How are you?" He tried to be equally polite and controlled.
"What did you do your paper on for lit class?" She was being very safe where their conversation was going.
"I have not done it yet." He lied. He had finished to last night.
" Oh." Sansa looked back to the front of the class.
"So what did you do this weekend?" He asked.
"Shopped and I went to the movies last night with Joffery. We saw some action movie. I really didn't enjoy it to much." Sansa said.
Sandor sat in his chair and started to flip into his notebook for the blank page to take notes in.
It was a very uncomfortable hour for Sandor. When the bell for the end of class rang they walked in silence side by side. He watched as Joffery swagger over to Sansa.
"Hello there beautiful. What are you doing with the Dog?" Joffery took Sansas from around the waist.
"Good morning Joffery." Sansa said.
"Hound we I have something that I must talk to you about. Will you come with me?" Joffery said.
He left with Joffery as the made their way to Jofferys class.
"Sansa still hasn't given it up to me. I am getting a little angry. I thought that those earrings would have done the trick. God this is a nightmare. And she wanted to know why I went to some stranger for sex." Joffery leaned up against the wall of the hallway. "You know her pretty well don't you Hound?"
"I guess. I do have a few classes with her. Why?" Sandor did not like where things were going with this conversation.
"Well how do I get her to have sex with me?" Joffery asked angrily.
"I do not know. Really." Sandor did not want to have this conversation with Joffery at all.
"Well I want you to find out what it will take." Joffery demanded.
He could not for the life of him do what he was told. He could not do this to Sansa.
"I can't do that Joffery. You will just have to let her come to you in her own time." Sandor said.
"Her own time? I want things in the bag with her by the New Year." Joffery hissed. "Now find a way for that to happen or I will make things more miserable for you then they already are."
Joffery walked into his classroom leaving Sandor alone in the all but deserted hall. He could not do what Joffery wanted him to do this time. He was not going to find out a way to get her to sleep with that worm. So he had to lie to Joffery. He had to make sure that he did not destroy Sansa. That could not happen.
Sandor was late when he got to his next class and was chastised by the teacher. He took his seat next to Sansa and tried to pay attention to what the teacher was saying, but his mind kept swinging back to what Joffery wanted. He did not know what he was going to tell Joffery. He was going to have to find things that she did like and then tell Joffery the opposite of what it was that he found out.
He walked through school that day as if he was a zombie. He did not pay attention to what was happening all day. Sansa even commented on it when they were in the cafeteria. He tried to laugh it off, saying that he was thinking about what to do on his paper for Lit class.
His mind went to what he had to do for Joffery. He knew that Sansa liked honesty, that much he knew for sure. He also knew that Joffery had no way of being an honest with anyone. He knew that she liked music and dancing. If he was the one dating her he would have taken her dancing or to a concert. He was surely not going to tell Joffery this. Then there was the fact that she liked fresh organic food and not that processed crap that Joffery ate. He was not going to tell him that either.
By the end of the day he had compiled a list of what Sansa liked and didn't like. He was going to find out more things for that were not the things that she liked and start doing the things that she did like for her. This would be a great way to get Joffery and Sansa to split up. For the first time since Sansa and Joffery had started to date there was hope for Sandor yet.
Bran
Arya was not talking to Sansa, Sansa was still with a total dick and he was unable to think of a modern comedic piece for theater. And he guessed that he also was seeing things now. He still did not understand what was happening to him, but he knew that he was. Things at Blackwater proved it to him.
He was sitting at his computer looking up a scene to do for theater and he was not finding one that he liked. He had read about ten scenes and monologues and had not found one that he liked. He was looking up something that looked promising when a headache hit. He sat back in his chair and closed his eyes. He had been looking at the computer screen for to long. He leaned up and then felt the moisture splatter onto the back of his hand.
"Bran dear, it is time for the," Catelyn walked into the room and stopped midsentence. "Oh Bran. Your nose is bleeding. Lean your head back."
Catelyn rushed out to the hall and grabbed a tissue and hurried back to Brans room.
"Apply this to your nose. Oh Bran." She fussed over him like a hen would her chick.
"It is nothing mom. Just a nose bleed." Bran said with his head tipped back and the tissue on his nose.
"Are you feeling alright dear? Any headaches or anything like that?" Catelyn pressed her hands to his head.
"I have a headache, but I have been looking at the computer since I have got home. My eyes have been under a lot of strain." Bran sounded tired.
"I will make you an appointment to get your eyes checked. Let me check and see if you are still bleeding." She pulled the tissue away from his nose and it had stopped bleeding.
"Oh good it stopped. Family movie night is tonight. It is time to take a break from studying sweetheart."
"Alright I will be along in a moment. I just have to turn off everything here." Bran told his mother.
"Hurry up dear. Rickon cannot wait to start the movie and you know how he is when he picks the movie." Catelyn said as she left the room to get her other children.
Bran sat in his computer chair and let his head fall back completely. His head still pounded and he was worried that his nose would start bleeding again.
He was behind the wheel of a car and it was speeding down a very curvy road. There was rain spattering on the windshield. He looked down at his hands and they were not his hands. They were feminine and the nails were painted a deep purple. He was Arya. There was something that was not right. There was an urgency in Arya to get to where she was going.
"God damn it Sansa. What the hell were you thinking? I hope that you are okay. Hold on I am on my way."
Bran came snapping back to reality. His headache was worse then it had been before and he still felt an urgency to protect his sister. He bolted from his chair and into the hall. He was so focused on finding either one of his sisters that he was not aware that one was right in front of him.
"Bran! Watch it!" Arya shouted.
"Arya you are okay! Thank god." He grabbed her shoulders and hugged her to him.
"Bran you are crushing me. I really can't breathe Bran." Arya wheezed.
Bran was so shaken by the feelings that last vision had given him that he almost blurted out that he had seen Arya going to Sansas rescue.
"Sorry Arya. I am just so happy to see you." He said.
"I just saw you, like three hours ago." Arya scoffed.
"You are right. Hey have you seen Sansa?"
"No." Arya walked away to go down the stairs to watch the family movie.
Bran back tracked to his room and grabbed his phone off his desk and punched in a text for Jojen
Happened again. Saw something. Have to go do family movie night. Will tell you more about what is going on later.-Bran
Arya
She had planned on being angry with Gendry all day, all week, all month, for the rest of her life, but he had been in the shop with the sander working on her car. She just stood there and watched him work her car and she was surprised. She knew that he hated sanding. She walked to her cubby and saw that there was a box of chocolates and a rose in it, as well as a new set of socket wrenches. There was a note with the wrenches from Gendry.
-Arya I am so sorry that I was such a jackass this weekend. I was drunk and not thinking. I am so very sorry that I made such a fool of myself. Please forgive me. I will do anything to get you to forgive me. I am here to be your slave.
Gendry
Arya had walked over to him and tapped him on the shoulder. He had yelped and dropped the sander on his foot. He had spun around and looked her in the eye.
"Arya I am so sorry! I had had way to much to drink and I was jealous that you were on a date and I acted like a fool. I have no claim on you and I know that you are confused and that me being a jerk like that doesn't make things easy for you. I am so sorry. Can you forgive me?" Gendry babbled and apologized at the same time.
Arya thought that it was cute and endearing. He was so cute, trying to get her to understand that he was sorry. She felt her steely determination falter and turn to dust.
"It is okay you big stupid head. I forgive you. Just don't do it again." She said as she walked over and picked up the sander.
Then things had gone back to the way that they always had been. They joked and worked and flirted. She kept looking over at him and looking at him. She had never really taken the time to look at him. She had seen his body and his eyes, but she never really looked at him. He was so much more then what she had first seen. Se was so much more then just a good body and nice hair and amazing eyes. He was more then that. He was kind and sweet and tender. That was what she saw now when she looked at him. She knew him and the more that she knew the more she could see herself being with him.
But that morning in her art class Jaqen had been good looking and sweet and funny as well. Things were getting complicated and more then she had expected. She was going to take Jons advise and let him and her other two older brothers meet them and let them give her their input. They were her brothers and would never steer her wrong in the past. She was so happy that Christmas break was two weeks away.
She walked into the lunch room and she saw Jaqen. She waved to him and he walked over to her.
"Lovely girl I have come to eat lunch with you today. Do you want to accept my invitation? Your friends can come too." He quickly added as he noticed Myrcella and Aegon walk her way.
"That would be great but we have four others that we usually eat lunch with. Why don't you eat with us?" She asked looking over her shoulder at their table.
"I can come with you to your table." Jaqen fallowed Arya to her table and she noticed right away that he and Gendry were not happy to be eating with each other. She just realized that this probably was not the right thing to do.
They sat there and did not say much to each other. No one spoke much. It was a very uncomfortable lunch for everyone at the table. Arya tried her best to keep things running smoothly. But she could not seem to stop Gendry and Jaqen from glairing daggers at each other when they did not think that she was looking.
When the bell rang for the end of lunch she stood and walked to her class Jaqen and Gendry both tried to walk her to class. She was saved by Myrcella.
"Sorry guys but I need Arya. We have some girl stuff to talk about real fast." Myrcella slipped her arm in Aryas.
"Thank you so very much. They looked like they were going to rip each other apart." Arya said.
"Well I do have things to talk to you about. But that can wait. You have not told me about either of your dates this weekend. So spill. We have a biology paper to research and we will be in the library and we will be able to talk then." Myrcella led her to the library.
"They were both great. I had a great time with both of them. I just don't know how to choose. So my brothers are going to meet them both and they are going to tell me what they think." Arya said simply.
"So you give your brothers the power over your love life? That is very foolish. You know that I vote for Gendry. I know that Jaqen is great, but Gendry is perfect for you." Myrcella said.
"They both are really. You really don't know Jaqen. If you got to know him you would see that too. I just do not know. I need more time."
