Dinner (Chpt. 9)

"Mum we've water the plants already." Lucien says out loud as he enters. At the living room

couch is Lorely, Sherry and Everett. Your mother heads over from the kitchen. "Great, oh um,

your father is in a meeting and has to work overtime." Everyone is pleased with the news except

Eadgyth. "Why can't he come home and have dinner with us?" She frowns. "Oh and Chris will

come by a little more later since who knows when your father will arrive." "'Kay" Lucien nods.

"Can you help me set up the table?" Your mother says while heading back into the kitchen.

"Sure!" Min, Lucien, Ray, Everett, and Maya respond along with you. Your siblings and you start

to set up the table while your mother finishes preparing dinner. Then everyone sits down at the

table. Once settled everyone starts to eat.
