“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.

Matthew‘s request took Wayne by surprise and struck a church with him. He hesitantly looked at Anna, “Uhm, why don‘t you stay tonight? I will have them clean a room for you and Tam.”

Astonished, Anna said, “No. It‘s a little inappropriate.” “Don‘t get me wrong.” Wayne glanced at her and explained calmly, “»

“If you leave now, Matthew will refuse to eat tomorrow. His arm hasn‘t recovered yet. He can only stay at home and rarely see his friends.”

Wayne‘s words didn‘t leave much choice for Anna.
