Mysterious happenings



'Ah, you're finally back.'

'Hi. Was everything okay while I was gone?'

'Oh, yes. No problems. How is Brianne now?'



'Yeah, she's doing better now.'

'Good.'



'Mum!'

'Hey, sweetie!'



'I missed you.'

'You too, honey.'



'I already bathed Julius. So you can put him to bed now.'

'Alright. Thanks.'




'...Thanks for doing actual parenting?'

'I'd rather stay on his good side for now, Carmella.'

'Ah... that's a good idea.'



'Mmm. Let's go in your room, it's safer.'




'So did you find a house?'

'Yep! It's got enough bedrooms for all of us, so no worries about sharing.'

'Brilliant!'



'It's a really nice place. You'll love it.'



'Aww Mum, that's awesome! When are we moving in?'

'Once I book some flights? There's no point hanging around here any longer.'

'Yay! I'm so excited to go!'



'Me too! Our new home in paradise... I'll tell the boys.'

'Okay. Tristan's at work, but he'll be back soon. Should be finishing now, in fact...'






'You want me to go over and confess to Ellis that I'm the reason Nix keeps saying "fuck"? Sure, fine. I guess it's a dick move of me to carry on letting Heath take the blame.'



'Can you promise he won't kick my ass? Okay, thanks. I bet if you all act like it's not happening, she'll get bored of saying it. Julius did, after all. One time when he was three he dropped an F bomb in front of Richard Fortescue and all the other toffs... Hey, what do you mean, that's rich coming from me?! Okay, okay, point taken. Anyway, now he doesn't say it all! And not because Father told him to stop either. You know how much of a shit Julius gives about anything Father says!'





'Huh, it's half past already. I think I'm going to go home. I'll talk to you tomorrow. See you, Charon.'
