The kitchen was filled with laughter, while the man in the living room was restless.

His anxiety was interrupted by the sight of Nina bouncing down the stairs with a bag of chips.

He waved to the little girl in an uncharacteristic move, “Serenina Ziegler, come here.”

Nina, thinking she had been caught red–handed, quickly hid the chips behind her back, “I only had a little bit, don’t punish me.”

Bernard was too preoccupied to care about her snack intake, he just nodded at her, “Do me a favour and I won’t punish you.”

With that, Nina approached him and asked, “What do you need me to do?”

Bernard glanced at the kitchen and said, “Go smooth things over with Eleanor.”

Nina immediately understood, “Did you tick off Eleanor?”

Bernard shot her a look, “Don’t ask what you’re not supposed to.”

Nina pouted, “You’re asking me for a favour and you’re being mean. I won’t help you.”

Bernard’s indifferent eyes fixed on the snacks in her hand, “Your choice, want to be punished or do as I asked?”
