"That was awesome"! Caleb exclaimed to Mrs Parker.
She laughed softly before saying, "You are not the only one who is expert at lying".
"What do you mean"? Caleb scrunched his eyebrows.
"What I mean is everyone lies every now and then. Don't feel too guilty to lie if you believe it's for the greater good or if it's a simple harmless lie" She patted him and served him a few bacon. "I hope it's not too many calories".
"Mrs Pa- I mean, Sue, it wasn't necessary". He stuttered, a bit shy.
"You saved my son, it's the least I could do". She smiled at him. After the dinner Caleb insisted he would help Mrs Parker to clean up but she dismissed him. He sat there the entire time near Ashton and chatted with the twins.
"Will he leave us"? Ariel, still quite upset, asked him.
