"Did you guys at least enjoy it?" Aurora's mother asked before placing a juice glass in front of them.
"It was super fun! Until the train… Nevermind." Aurora was still sulky about his switching.
"I said sorry." Sean whispered.
Her mother went over on the phone to make a call.
"Why does the Palanquin Lady hate our kisses?" Aurora asked herself before sipping on the juice.
"I bet she doesn't hate it."
"Try listening to her lectures next time."
It appeared, the train ride wasn't as fun as the festival.
"I called the Andersons. You're staying over tonight." Her mother said to Sean after putting the receiver down.
"Excuse me?" Sean asked, flustered.
"Yes. Do you think I'll let you go out at this time of the night?" Her mother asked. "I'll go clean up the guest room, okay? You're staying here."
Sean slowly nodded, still flustered.
"Hey! You wanna..?" Aurora asked excitedly.
"I wanna what? Sleep? Yes." Sean muttered in an instant.
