Levina darted her eyes between I and Raul, wondering if it was a good choice to leave the drama that was about to unfold.
When she stood up, I was sure that she had made the choice to hear a drama she wanted to happen, from me; for if she chose to stay, it might not happen. It amused me.
I watched, keeping the amusement away from my face, as she sauntered away from me, to the door. She was about to leave when Raul suddenly called her back, drawing my attention to him for the first time since he had come into the store room.
"What's my mother delivery doing here?"
It was then I realized that I was still squatting by the carton. Oh god. I mentally palmed my head, since doing that physically would only toughen the uncertain situation we were already in. How do I convince Raul that I had not touched the carton?
"I don't know. We had been offloading the cartons when we had seen it." Levina's confidence was something to be envied.
