He recalled the previous things he had done while his older sister was occupied with work. He was sure that he was on his best behavior, painting most of the time.
His breath hitched as he concluded the excessive amount of time that he spent on his canvases was more than he was reading. He squirmed under the intense stare of Cailina as the latter let the silence pierced her younger brother's ears.
