Homework

Jaden and Scarlet went home with their eyes shining, excited. Nate knew their good mood would disappear once they heard they were going to leave their mommy to him, but he was also curious for the reason of their excitement.

«What is going on?» he inquired while opening the car door. Lara had gone home earlier to study, so she was likely waiting for them in the apartment.

«Nothing,» the twins replied, in sync.

Holding one each hand, they walked into the building.

«Why are you so happy?» he tried again.

«For no reason,» said Jaden.

«We are not happy,» was Scarlet's reply.

«Something happened,» Nate said. «I'm just curious to hear what.»

«Nothing happened.»

When they opened the door of the apartment, the scent of food hit all of three. Nate gulped, taken by surprise. Lara was supposed to focus on studying, not cooking for them! But he was also glad he would have a delicious meal cooked by his mate.
