Aaron arrived at his mother's home for lunch. His brothers Kenan and Joel were sitting in the parlor playing chess while Saul sat on the balcony. Malachi was in the backyard, allowing himself to listen to Zoila's nonsense about what she knew of gardening.
Going to the sofa he allowed himself to sit down and rest while watching his brothers play. They were playing to decide who would get to seduce a certain a woman. Ridiculous.
"Who is she?" Aaron asked.
"Kara."
"Is she hard to get?"
"She plays hard to get," Joel said overconfident again.
"And you both want her?"
Sometimes the brothers had the same taste.
"We at least want someone," Joel teased, then turned to him. "How long have you abstained or did you slip?"
"I didn't slip nor have I abstained. I just don't eat whatever is served."
"Oh, look who got a smart mouth. I guess spending time with the princess is doing something to you." Joel drawled.
