Don't Go On

Bright early next morning, both Lucas and Cheyenne headed downstairs with conspicuous dark eye circles.

Smiling, Charlotte walked toward them with a carton of yogurt drink in hand and apologized insincerely, "Cheyenne, Lucas, you two didn't get a good night's sleep, huh? I'm really sorry I couldn't keep an eye on the little gooseberry and failed to stop her from going back to disturb you guys!"

Amelia asked with bewilderment, "We have gooseberries at home? Where are they? I want to see them!"

Charlotte burst into laughter, picked Amelia up in her arms, and gently tapped the tip of her little nose twice. "Hahaha, it's just some adorable gooseberry. I'll take you to see it some other day when we have the chance."

Amelia was confused, but she nevertheless nodded obediently, making the playfully evil Charlotte laugh even louder.

"Charlotte, are you itching for a beating?" Cheyenne chided, her face as red as a tomato.
