Chapter 138: The clash

  Imela's POV

  A few faces here tonight were familiar, and I tried to get acquainted with them. Marcel and Ocean were gone for longer than I expected, but I figured this was their way of catching up with each other. Soon, Carol led Ocean back to us. I thanked her, and the older woman smiled and took her leave.

  "What do you and Marcel do?"

  "He showed me the collection of his Legos. He built a city with them. It was big and beautiful." He replied.

  "That's nice to know."

  "Can I go with Carol?" They are in the kitchen.

  I displayed a little reluctance. I wanted him to be close so I could keep an eye on him, but he probably missed Carol and wanted to be around them. The party was kid-friendly, but the boy wanted what he wanted.

  "Fine, but remember to stay with her until she brings you again."

  Ocean beamed back and nodded before leaving with Carol.
