Natasha was quite tense. She paced back and forth, looking at the clock every now and then while Howard sat on a chair.
"Will you relax?" he sighed. "Lillian said she's coming home for the night! That's good, right?"
"I know but something isn't right!" Natasha exclaimed. "Lillian is hiding something. I know it."
She was not sure what was going on. Lillian had called her that morning and said that she was going to stay over at their house that night. For the past few days, Lillian was in a strangely jovial mood which should make Natasha happy but the nagging feeling would not let her stay in peace. She could tell that Lillian was hiding something from them. Natasha asked her daughter many times and even offered to go to her house but Lillian told her that she was outside or away on a trip.
