That night, Alexa waited for Serena to come over like she said she would. She made sure to put Rachael to sleep early and sat on the couch, waiting.
Serena walked in, only to see Alexa sitting with a cold air around her.
"We need to talk." Alexa said and though Serena expected it, she immediately got exhausted by the thought of it.
"What's there to talk about?" Serena asked as she made her way to sit. "You want to hear about how I told your daughter not to do things that would be a burden to you or you want to hear me make some sort of excuse as to why I did it?" Her gaze, glazed on Alexa made Alexa feel even more angry.
She gripped her arm and gritted her teeth.
"Is that all you have to say?" She asked but Serena looked uninterested.
"What's left to say?"
"Serena, you knew that those kids called Rachael a bastard, didn't you?" She asked and Serena paused.
'So that little brat went ahead and ran her mouth.'
