"How about tomorrow, after kindergarten?" little Sansa said but soon regretted it, worrying that Ellen would reject her as she may have had some prior arrangements.
"Great, I will ask my mom to bring my pet with her when she comes to pick me up at kindergarten so we can directly go to your house," Ellen readily agreed to little Sansa's invitation.
"Nice, your going to love the playroom," Sansa was excited hearing Ellen accept her invitation immediately.
From afar, seeing his daughter successful in her first quest to make a friend Sansa's father wanted to cheer but held himself back not wanting to embarra.s.s his daughter, and felt that this was not enough to make up for the damage he had caused with his absence when she needed him.
"A playroom, is it like the one in the mall? Can I come too?" A little girl who happened to be playing nearby asked after hearing Ellen and Sansa make plans for tomorrow evening.
"..." Sansa who was delighted over making a friend had not thought this far ahead and could only turn to her father seeking an answer only to find him vigorously nodding his head. So she instinctively blurted, "Yes"
Hearing Sansa's awkward reply, Ellen immediately said, "Great, it is decided then tomorrow we all will meet at Sansa's house."
"Okay," the little girl nodded enthusiastically, attracting other kids who began to invite themselves to meet at Sansa's house tomorrow after kindergarten.
It did not take long for the Baylor family boy to learn of the playdate at Sansa's house, so he headed toward Ellen and gaining her attention, said, "Ellen, you agreed to come to my house tomorrow to meet the pet that I will be adopting tonight."
Hearing the boy, the group of kids who were babbling about meeting at Sansa's house went silent, as some remembered that they had agreed to meet at the boy's house tomorrow after kindergarten hours.
As for little Sansa, she held her breath forgetting to breathe. Feeling that this will inevitably end up badly for her.
"I am sorry, I forgot," Ellen said with an apologetic smile and then added, "But you can bring your pet to Sansa's house, you can introduce it to all of us there. I bet it will enjoy itself in Sansa's pet playroom."
"Yes, yes," the other kids nodded hearing Ellen's solution as they were more optimistic and curious about Sansa's pet playroom than another pet.
Feeling the peer pressure the Baylor family kid had no choice but to agree to their arrangements by coldly answering, "Fine," not bothering to hide his dissatisfaction with the arrangement and especially with Sansa, using a chilling stare aimed at her.
Before Sansa could feel happy about the fact that Ellen and the other kids choose to spend their evening at her house rather than at the house of the most popular kid in their kindergarten, her little crush's soul-chilling stare rendered her without any thoughts but one, 'He hates me.'
Seeing this Sansa's father wanted to rush and teach the Baylor family boy a lesson instead sighed and then decided to take his daughter home before she suffers any more damage. Right at that moment, as if she had timed it, the irresponsible mother of little Ellen entered the hall with her husband, and seeing Sansa's father still present, she said, "You are still here?"
Throwing a cold glare at her, Sansa's dad walked to his daughter, and picking her up in his arms he announced, "Kids, something urgent came up so I will be leaving with Sansa but I am looking forward to meeting you guys at our house tomorrow. Kids, bye."
"Bye, Sansa." "Sansa, bye" "See you in kindergarten."
"Since you have waited so long, why not wait a little longer to hear the good news?" Ellen's mother said as Sansa's father carried Sansa out of the hall.
"What good news? I think it can wait," Sansa's father said tightening his hug around his little angel, who stared into the air with blank eyes.
"Oh, I see. Was it the Baylor kid again?" Ellen's mother said seeing Sansa's blank eyes.
"I take it that it happened before and you did not bother to inform me about it?" Sansa's father's voice grew colder learning that this was not the first time his daughter went through a mental meltdown. What enraged him more was the fact that his daughter had to go through this all alone.
"I tried to cheer her but it had no effect and besides I did not think it was my place," Ellen's mother replied truthfully. Though she was not right, it was understandable because there was no easy way for a person to inform a father that his five-year-old was having boy troubles.
"..." Sansa's father stared at Ellen's mother before turning to leave while shaking his head in self blame. It was his fault for not showing more interest in his daughter's life, and that fact would not change by blaming it on others.
"My husband has agreed to work with you, so talk to other partners and prepare partners.h.i.+p agreement papers," Ellen's mother said from behind.
Hearing her talk about partners.h.i.+p Sansa's father stopped in his tracks and turning to look at his comrade, he asked, "What is she talking about?"
"I have decided to come work with you commander, I have the Duskborn family's blessing for this, they are the ones lending me the money to come up with the buy-in money to become a partner," Ellen's father explained enthusiastically.
"Nope, not happening," Saying that Sansa's father turned to leave which was completely out of Ellen's parent's expectations.
"What the?" Ellen's mother almost cussed but controlling herself she asked, "Why?"
Hearing Ellen's mother Sansa's father once again stops in his tracks to face Ellen's parents. Then he aggressively said, " I will tell you why, I invited your husband, not the Duskborns. I don't want those greedy b.a.s.t.a.r.ds anywhere near me and the things I hold dear."
