" Grandma?" Samuel thought she was only saying it because they were close and not blood-related, but seeing the look on her face, it seemed he was wrong. The old woman who had been cooking their meals was her grandmother? How come they never told him! It would be bad if she got a bad impression of him.
" Why are you here this late?" Kayla and Mayra separated from Samuel, but Elise was still in her own world, trying to play with Samuel.
" Why shouldn't I be? This is my house; I can come and go as I please! But before that, what were you two doing just now?" The old lady asked the most important question. Her eyes were squinted, watching their every reaction.
"aha, nothing...we were just playing?" Mayra blurted out nervously.
" Right, right. We were playing with Elise?" Kayla lifted Elise in her arms but still wanted to go to Samuel.
