When she moved, however, her hair became entangled with one of the buttons again, rendering Bennett's earlier efforts futile.

"Ouch!"

Claudia exclaimed when she felt a sharp pain in her scalp.

“Hey, stop moving."

Bennett released his hold on her hair and gently repositioned her head. He rubbed his thumb on her scalp soothingly before saying, “Your hair is still stuck in one of the buttons."

“What should we do now?"

Claudia did not dare make any sudden movements again for fear of getting hurt once more.

Bennett gave her a quick glance and replied, "I'll try to get the hair out of the button, but I'm not sure if I'11 succeed."

A worried expression spread across Claudia's face. "What if we can't detangle it?"

He smiled helplessly. "If we can't detangle this, then I‘1l have to take my shirt off."

"No, you can't do that."

“What else are we supposed to do, then? Do you have any other better ideas, Mrs. Dreskin?"

Claudia pondered the problem for a while, but she could not come up with a solution. "I don't think it's impossible to detangle it."

“It's not impossible, no. I actually almost undid it earlier, but you moved. Now, we're back to square one."

Claudia let out a groan.

As it turned out, it was her fault that they were stuck right now.

She swore she would not move again.

And so Claudia went completely still.

She Lowered her head and studied the button of Bennett's shirt, praying silently that he would be able to detangle her hair out of it.

She did not want Bennett to take his shirt off.

Claudia snapped out of her thoughts when the man patted her head and said, "Don't move."

“What? I didn't move."

Suddenly, Claudia heard something snap. Then, she discovered that she could freely move her head again.

She beamed at Bennett.
