"Well?" Tori glanced at her.
"Nope it wasn't me neither" Marah pretended.
"Great now I don't know who it's from" Dustin raise his hands then back down.
"Maybe it's from Sensei" Blake suggested.
"No it's not from my father" Cam spoke up.
"How would you know?" Hunter standing next to Blake.
"For one if it's from my father then it would have his name on it" Cam explains.
"Cam does have a point there" Kapri agreeing with her cousin.
"Let me see the card" Cam ask Dustin.
Dustin gave Cam the card which he took and read it with Tori and Kapri surrounding him.

"But why did you deny it before when we ask you" Shane wondered.
"Well I want to see how smart Dustin was and also I want to drive him nuts figuring who it's from sort of like a game" Marah explained.
All them started to laugh.
"None of less I just got four words to say to you Marah" Dustin looks at her.
