'Put those back.'

With no third eye gazing from the glabella of Hildebrand Hankinson, he having had to renounce such things on joining his bridge club, and his lashes lid locked many microbe miles below his pupils, how could he have seen me?

'Never mind how, just put them back.'
'Mind reading too-'
'Yes, mind reading too, put them back.'
'I was taking them for your own good..

Wait.

Why hadn't he said yes, you were taking them for my own good, put them back.?

'I only hear peoples' thoughts when they're not lying to themselves. Actually, take them.'
