Chapter 45 She’s Here With Me

“Tina.” Courtney’s voice deepened as she stared at the little girl.

“Do you think this is appropriate?”

Tina pursed her lips as she felt guilty.

When Mommy talks to me like this, it usually means that she’s really angry.

“Mommy,” Tina tugged on her sleeve. “I just want to play with Jordan for a little while longer.”

 

Courtney looked at her with a serious face. “Do you know what time it is now? Haven’t I told you this before? You can play at someone’s house, but when it’s time to go back, you can’t insist on staying at someone’s house—that’s basic manners.”

As she was reprimanding Tina, Jordan suddenly crawled over and hugged one of her legs while his other hand was holding the drawing board.

 

Courtney felt a tight grasp on her leg and looked down. Jordan raised his drawing board, and she read the words written on it, ‘I want Tina to stay.’

“Jordan,” Courtney frowned. She didn’t know what to say because she was always unable to refuse Jordan’s request.

“I have to go, Jordan. It’s too late today, so I’ll bring Tina over to play with you the next time I have a chance, okay?”

Jordan got nervous when he realized Courtney insisted on going back. He quickly wrote on his drawing board and tugged on Alexander’s pants as he tried to show it to the latter. ‘If you don’t let Tina and Miss Hunter stay, then I will stop eating.’

Alexander was stunned as a strange wave rippled through his heart. He looked at Courtney and asked hesitantly, “Why don’t you stay here tonight? There’s a spare room for you and Tina here.”

Courtney froze. “No, that’s not good.”

“Don’t take this the wrong way,” Alexander glanced at her and explained calmly. “If you leave now, Jordan will stop eating again. Besides, his hand injury is not healed yet and he’s stuck at home, so it’s hard for him to see his friends.”
