Lilian and Maya looked at one another then looked back at Orva before leaving the kitchen. They didn't need to be told twice before making an exit. Xing was still Sinclair's father which also means he could send them out when he wants. Orva was still seated on the stool with her weird combination almost finished. She wonders what could have made Xing want to talk to her alone when he had been absent almost all the time he came here. Living with Xing was like having a ghost around, but what choice did she have?.
"I hope you do not mind if I join you in the kitchen?" Xing asked already making his way to her and sits on a stool in front of her.
'make yourself comfortable? When you have' Orva said in her head.
