slack since I was young and stupid”
Jason was ice cold saying. “As long as you don’t bring it up, we’ve let it gonovelbin

A few more words were exchanged, but Jason was still frosty Carmella was on pins and needles and
Albert decided it was high time to split.

in the winter. At that moment, a girl stood under one of the trees.

seemed familiar

half an hour, Estelle finally hung up and returned to the living room.
Old Mr Quintin and Jason were still playing chess in the living room. Seeing two cups of tea on the
table, Estelle knew they’d had visitors, but she didn’t pry

Estelle sat next to Old Mr. Quintin, watching them play chess. The room was cozy and quiet, and soon,
she was fighting off sleep.
It wasn’t until Old Mr Quintin turned his head that he noticed Estelle had dozed off. He couldn’t help the
fond smile that crept onto his face, saying. “She’s still a sleepyhead”

Jason glanced at her, smiling, “Is it your boyfriend who’s taking you?”
Estelle nodded.
Jason didn’t press further, only saying, “I’ve already mailed the gift I got to Old Mr Jarvis. This way, you
won’t have to lug it around”
“Okay.” Estelle said, nodding in agreement.
