Let Me Stay The Night

After hanging up the phone, Christina walked up to them and asked, “Camila, Lucas, Mommy is going to take you two to a different place first, okay?”

She wanted to communicate with the kids beforehand so that they would not react strongly later on.

“What is that place?” Camila looked at Christina curiously with her eyes wide.

“Is it fun?” Lucas asked.

“Yeah. We’re going to meet a lady and have a little chat with her,” Christina said.

Camila tilted her head and gave it some thought before turning toward Lucas.

The two kids exchanged glances before arriving at a consensus.

“Okay,” Lucas said on behalf of them both.

“Head on in with the kids, Nathaniel,” Christina said.

“All right.”

Christina made her way to an empty corner and took a deep breath before answering the call. “Hey, Grandma.”
