Spoiled by Eight Uncles

Lilly and Josh tugged Lisa along to the guest room on the third floor.

Aunt Lisa was back now, but she was not living in the same room as Uncle Anthony.

“Aunt Lisa, we’re going back to face the wall and think about what we’ve done!” Lilly petted Lisa’s head. “Be good and stay here, and don’t go running around!”

Lisa sat on the bed obediently, staring straight ahead as usual. Her head turned around to stare at Lilly sometimes, or Josh.

She seemed the exact same, aside from looking paler.

Josh lay by the bed, his chin on his palms. “Lilly, can my Mom ever go back to normal?”

Lilly shook her head. “I’m not sure, Master said that it’s not confirmed.

Josh let out a small sigh.

Oh, well.

As long as his mother was here, things seemed good enough. He’d take good care of her.

“Let’s go face the wall and think about what we’ve done.” Josh took Lilly’s hand, sticking out his head and peeking out. He saw that Bettany was nowhere to be seen, and lowered his voice at once. “We’ll just close the door when we’re back, and pretend to be asleep. Alright?”

Lilly had not slept at all last night, and had to be beyond tired.

He was tired, too.

Lilly could not help but grow nervous, feeling like she was doing something bad. “What if Grandma finds out?”

Josh shook his head. “She won’t. Trust me!”

Lilly: Alright!

The two children mumbled among themselves, running back to their rooms.

Lisa pricked up her ears, watching Josh and Lilly chatter as they left the room, waving at her before closing the door.

It was then that Lisa lowered her head, staring at her hands.
