“Tammy Gabriel.” Anna said in a deep voice, staring at the little girl. “Do you think it is OK to stay here?”

Tammy set her mouth in a line with a guilty look on her face. Usually, Anna was really angry when she talked to Tammy in this way.

“Mommy.” Tammy pulled Anna‘s sleeves, “I just want to play with Matthew a little longer.”

Anna looked at her with great seriousness, “Do you know what time it is now? Haven‘t | told you that you can play but you can‘t wear out your welcome? It‘s common courtesy.”

While Anna was snapping at Tammy, Matthew suddenly crawled to her and held one of her legs with one hand, with the sketch board in the other hand.
