• "Crap!" Amidst the resounding murmurs of the crowd, Gerard's frustration burst forth in a volley of curses. Disregarding the doubts about the person's claim, he promptly dropped to his knees with a resounding thud and pleaded, "I'm sorry! I was wrong. I'm so sorry!"

It was as if they had entered a world of illusions, unable to fathom this unexpected turn of events.
