“I can take care of myself. I can wash up, brush my teeth, and even get into my pajamas. If you’rereally late, I‘1l just head to bed.”

Sabrina didn’t know what to say now.

Noticing her hesitation, Jennie’s lips formed into a pout, giving Sabrina a pitiful look. “Aunt Sabrina,have you stopped Liking me? Do you think I’m annoying?”

Gazing into those large, pleading eyes, a wave of tenderness washed over Sabrina and she promptlyresponded, “Never. I could never stop liking you.”

“You’re not being honest. You’ve stopped liking me, haven’t you? Oh… please, Aunt Sabrina, don’t beupset with me! I promise I’ll behave better!” Jennie hid her face, tears flowing.

A pang of sympathy struck Sabrina. She wrapped Jennie in a comforting embrace, whispering, “Jennie,believe me, I’m not upset with you. Don’t cry. Didn’t I say yes?”

“Is that the truth? It feels like you’re not being honest.” Jennie’s voice wavered between sobs.

“It’s true!” Sabrina nodded and put her forehead to Jennie’s. “I won’t lie to you. You’re going to stay atmy place now. While I’m away, Bettie will be there for you. Can you promise to listen to her?”

“Of course! You’re simply the best!”

Jennie spun around, threw herself into Sabrina’s arms, and gazed up at her with a mischievous smile.Her smile was sly and there were no tears on her face.

A mix of surprise and realization dawned on Sabrina’s face.

She playfully began tickling Jennie, teasing, “Oh, you little trickster! Pretending to cry, were you?”

Jennie, wriggling away from Sabrina’s playful assault, giggled and pleaded, “Please, Aunt Sabrina, notickling! I’m so sorry. I won’t pull that trick again!”

Nearby, Tyrone lounged effortlessly, a hint of a smile on his lips, his gaze radiating warmth as heobserved the two of them.

Jennie burst into laughter, nearly shedding tears. She couldn’t resist moving closer to Tyrone andclimbing onto his lap. “Uncle! Save me!”

Tyrone cradled Jennie with one arm and grasped Sabrina’s hand with the other. “Alright, let’s take abreather now.”

He spoke in a gentle and helpless tone, as if Sabrina were also a child.

His hand, large and fair, had clearly visible blue veins that tightened around hers. The skin on his handwas slightly rough, creating an itchiness.

Sabrina withdrew her hand and said, “I’LL let you go this time.”

She let out a deep breath.

She hadn’t managed to distance herself this time.

Alright, she thought, this would be the Last time.
