The Family Of Three

Listening to his words, she frowned and looked at the food on her plate reluctantly, the sky had already turned dark, so he must have wanted to go home, even then she did not want to leave so early.

Still she nodded as she tried to stand up but aunt Martha patted her shoulders and shook her head.

"Finish your food first, it would not be a big thing if you take a few more minutes to have your fill." she assured but instead of nodding, Evan turned to look at Leo for acceptance.

Looking at her obedience, aunt Martha sighed and stared at Leo with a stern gaze,

"Let her eat for a while, young man. I have something important to discuss with you. So come with me!" her voice was authoritative and there was no sign of denial.

Though he felt strange, looking at how much Evan had respected the old lady, he nodded and followed her.
