"Would you care to tell her or should I?" Her voice was stern when she spoke to him but the face she gave me was apologetic
Grozdan stood his ground, by that I mean he turned away refusing to look at either of us
Sandy huffed shaking her head in disappointment "Forgive the poor child, I've known him since we were little, it just took longer for me to realize that he never grew up" She said the last part through gritted teeth reminding me of the warning tone my mom used on me whenever we had company, terrifying, anyone with a mom like mine knew it wasn't just a warning, the way Grozdan body stiffened meant he knew it too
I should be insulted, but truly I was more impressed with the effect she had on him, he became a lot less confident, a lot more fidgety, and just flat-out bratty, was she his Nanny or something? Personal Tutor Maybe? "So I'm assuming you've known Grozdan for over 200 years?" I ask and her eyes go wide
