Chapter 142

• Shannon and her kids were all seated at the seat out of the building the next day when the sun was setting. She had returned from the hospital after a female friend of Haven showed up in the hospital and volunteered to take care of her.
• She filled the six bottles before her with the strawberry juice that Georgie had gotten when returning from work and then gave them to the kids. They grabbed it and shifted, pulling their legs towards their toys.
• Georgie cleared his throat and got seated beside Shannon, his eyes glued to his kids who were busy with their toys with their lips fixated on the bottle of strawberry like it was one thing they wouldn't forsake. “I talked to your manager. You will not get a leave this year after spending most of your time here. Agreed?”
