Chapter 308- Shame On You!
Alex and Ariel were again arguing about something while Abi was busy telling Georgie about her class fellows.
"Some of the girls in my class are so rude," she told the boy who Marissa realized was an excellent listener. Nina was just enjoying the noise around her.
The smile on her face told it all.
"Someone his age rarely shows so much maturity," Marissa said, her eyes lingering on the boy for a few moments. He might be Delinda’s son but was way ahead of his age.
"Staying quiet doesn’t mean he has gotten mature," Nina picked up a cucumber stick and started nibbling on it, "He is just like the other kids of his age," Marissa didn’t know how to bring up the subject with Nina.
Was it even worth it?
"He only listens to Abigail," Nina remarked taking a spoonful of yogurt, "He keeps her safe from bullying. Helps her with her homework. And for some odd reason, he and Alex don’t see eye to eye."
This was something new for Marissa. She always thought Georgie was a peaceful, calming soul. But she wasn’t expecting that he and Alex had differences.
After dinner, Emily took the kids to bed and Marissa asked a maid to serve them tea before retiring to bed.
"Aren’t you spending the night outside?" Marissa asked Nina, as she made herself comfortable in the living room seat. Nina sat opposite to her and shook her head.
"Not tonight! You just spill what you want to talk about," Marissa was taken aback by her bluntness.
