Chapter 14

“Well, I see. You should get back to your things. I’m off* Thalassa waved to him and then walked to the other side of the road to wait for the bus.

Man, she almost thought David was slack in work, talk about a facepalm moment.

Thalassa got home, pushed the door open and a cozy family scene greeted her.

There was a young woman sitting on the sofa She was petite, with a round face and a pair of lively big eyes. Her dark hair was tied in a ponytail and she looked downright bubbly

This lady was Thalassa’s good friend. Hertha. Four kids were huddled around Hertha, hanging on every word of her story. Their eyes were filled with curiosity, fixated on her, listening to her tell the tale of the little bunny and the big bad wolf in her playful voice.

“The bunny thought its mom was back and opened the door. But surprise, the person outside removed the mask to reveal the fierce fangs of the big bad wolf and, Grrrr, it lunged at the bunny.” Hertha’s voice was sometimes high, sometimes low, and she spoke in an animated and interesting manner. She even opened her mouth wide, imitating the appearance of the big bad wolf

“Don’t eat me. Don’t eat me!” Elowen, who was closest to her, buried her head in her arms, her voice trembling with fear.

Their oldest, Atticus, said aloofly. “This is so childish and boring. That’s not how a wolf howls”

Their second son, Dorian, had teary eyes and clenched fists in front of his chest, looking helpless and pitiful. He pouted and said, “Poor little bunny”

Their little daughter, Sophia’s eyes sparkled with determination as she waved her tiny fists, “If the big bad wolf comes, I’ll beat it!”

Hearing the innocent words of the four kids, Hertha was laughing her head off.
