Carson Flores didn't refuse.
It wasn't that he wanted to hang out with Nathaniel Frost and Lillian Frost; sitting with a group of unfamiliar elders just felt awkward.
As they left the house, Carson Flores smiled and said, "You guys go ahead and have fun. I'll just take a walk by myself, and I'll get back later on my own."
Being twenty-five this year, Nathaniel Frost was two years younger than Carson Flores. He chuckled and said, "Come with us. We're all young. It'll be fun."
Nathaniel Frost gave his sister a wink, and twenty-one-year-old Lillian Frost persuaded with a laugh, "We younger ones couldn't join in the conversation with the elders talking earlier. Cousin, come with us. Let's get to know each other better. I've heard my parents talk about my second uncle before; they say he's really something!"
With the conversation turning to this point, Carson Flores naturally found it hard to refuse again and nodded, "Okay then, if it won't inconvenience you."
