Ant Family Part 2

Chapter 54

"Why are you still awake Hailey?" I was stunned while stirring my coffee blend when I heard that voice of Mr Perelman's. I haven't been able to sleep for a few nights even though I drank some milk that Hailey's mother always brings. However, maybe it's because I'm more used to drinking coffee than drinking milk.

I smiled when the doctor approached me while slightly looking at the wall clock in the kitchen where it had already dropped at midnight.

"It's already midnight Hailey." I took a deep breath before he smiled.

"I can't sleep anymore." With my answer, he sighed.

"Didn't your Mommy serve you milk?"

"She did, but I still can't sleep, Dad." I reason because that is also true. He took a deep breath and went to the refrigerator to get some water. I watched him until he sat in the chair in front of me. Then Mr Perelman pointed out the chair next to me as if telling me to sit down as well so I sat down.

"How's school?" I sipped my coffee before answering.
