Selene POV
"What?" I scrambled to my feet "Is that supposed to be a thing? How can my presence or absence impact everyone?"
"Mummy please just hurry, I'm starving," Vina cried.
I rushed into the closet and picked the first clothes my eyes fell on before rushing out again. When I returned it was just Noah in the room.
"Where are the girls?" I asked searching for them.
"I asked them to go ahead. Are you done?" he asked me quietly.
"Yeah, I think so," I nodded unable to meet his eyes. I didn't expect he'd be talking to me in the first place.
"Then let's go," he reached for my hand and together we started towards the door.
I could feel the guilt gnawing inside of me as we moved. Last night had been so terrible and more than anything, I knew he was looking forward to it. It was my fault that everything had gone haywire.
He deserved an apology at least.
