Perception

Phina had left Mrs. Betty and Patrick in the dark while she and Mrs. Alice discussed fashion. Their conversations on styles and fashion trends appear to be their main emphasis. Patrick got up and rushed to his mother's side when he saw that she had picked up her iPad to pass the time since she wasn't interested in Phina and his grandmother's chats.

When he reached her side, he said, "Mom, can we talk?"

With scowled eyebrows, she raised her gaze from the gadget she held and nodded. "Alone?"

"Yes, mum."

She said to him, "Of course. Let's go to my room." They turned to look at Mrs. Alice and Phina. They weren't the center of attention. They had their eyes on something that was in a fashion magazine.

When his gaze strayed from them, he answered, "Okay, mom." They then left the living room and proceeded to her chamber.
