"Remember to wait for Aunt Gianna under that shade after school dismissal…"
Athena pointed to the shade she was referring to, as she and her children came out of the principal's office.
The twins nodded, smiling adorably at her. They jumped excitedly, holding her hands, as she walked them to their classroom.
"And please don't make any trouble in class…"
Kathleen pouted at her mother's implied reprimand. "Mom, we are not trouble makers!"
Athena nodded solemnly, causing Nathaniel to chuckle. His mother knew them well enough.
"We will try, mom—if no one looks for either of our troubles. But we will keep our troubles safe, and out of reach."
Athena hoped, for the sake of other children, that they hid their troubles properly. Her children could be problematic when they chose to be.
