Andrew running a fever.

Anna didn’t know what to say as she watched Ethan brush past her and enter the house. The shock hadn’t faded off yet.

“Where are the children?” He asked, seeing the empty living room.

“Oh, they’re asleep,” Anna replied in an awkward manner, feeling odd. This wasn’t what she expected to deal with this evening. Today had been a doozy - in fact the entire weekend had.

Meanwhile, Ethan could tell the scent of his brother in the house and it irked him. So William had been here. Hmm…

He didn’t like it. One bit.

“Do you want some… tea?” She offered, stepping into the open plan kitchen right beside the living room.

Ethan smirked at her, saying, “I doubt you’ll have anything to my tastes. It’s okay, though. I actually came to check in on you.”

Water, then, she thought, as she nodded in response. That would do.

“Take a seat.” She stated before then turning to grab a glass cup, hearing a ping on her phone.

A quick glance at it told her it was a message from Dylan.

‘It’s done,’ the message said.
