Circe was not only the prettiest in her class, but also the belle of Hexad's. She was the center of attention wherever she went.
She walked toward Darryl. Everyone's eyes were on Darryl as she walked toward him. Extending her arm, she demanded, "Darryl, return my phone."
That morning, Evelyn dialed the Newmans to inform Circe that Darryl had her phone.
What? Darryl took Circe’s phone?
Everyone was partly confused and partly shocked.
Darryl awkwardly handed the phone back to Circe. " I'm so sorry," he chuckled. "I wanted to return it to you last night, but you had already left."

The entire class roared with laughter. A few were almost in tears. This idiot was amusing, locked up in prison for theft!
