After some cajoling from Noah, I didn't feel so guilty anymore. Like he told me, it's not like we're lying...Marie was pretty mean at first.
We sat at the table and waited for everyone else to gather. At the sound of the doorbell, Kyle jumped and made a beeline for the front door.
The rest of us got up and moved to the foyer to see, Zeke included.
Kyle opened the door to reveal two familiar faces and two new faces. Kaylee and Marie both stood in front of their parent, who they resembled.
"Hey. Hi. Um.." Kyle stuttered. "Uh, come on in please."
"Hello, welcome to our home." Mrs. Atkins stepped up to help Kyle out. "I'm Mary, this is my husband Wayne." She patted Kyle on the shoulder. "This is Kyle."
"Yes, hi, I'm Kyle." Kyle nodded.
I cringed to myself. So awkward.
Marie was the first to walk with her family following her in.
