“Why in the world did your mother ask you to send watermelons here? I could've just bought them myself if I wanted to have one. Besides, they're quite heavy. Did she forget that you're still just a child?”

“A child?” scoffed Jaena after she finally managed to catch her breath.

She was about to tell Sasha how much she appreciated someone remembering that she was still a child when Nina suddenly appeared from the stairs.

“Who's this?” Jaena had always been easily distracted by new things, including fresh faces.

“Oh, she's Kurt's little sister. She just got here. Hey, do you want to play with her, Jaena? I think she could really use a friend.”

Sasha was suddenly hopeful again because she thought that Jaena could keep Nina company.

However, upon hearing that, Jaena immediately jumped to her feet.

“No, thank you. I have enough to deal with as it is. Just having Jeffrey around was enough to give me headaches, and now you want to torment me with another? If you don't mind, I'd prefer not to worsen my already terrible headaches. The watermelons are delivered, so I did what I came here to do. Bye, Aunt Sasha. I have to go to school now.”

Then, the girl hurried to the door and made herself scarce, leaving Sasha alone with Nina once again.
