“Ohhhh, excuse me, you’re so very old. I do apologize.” She bit her lip and muttered to Isaac, “He’s only two years older than me.”
Folding her arms, she cocked a brow at Martin. “I guess you’re going to punish me for that, huh. I better start running.”
”Oy, don’t get cocky with me,
that’s my thing.”
He spoke with a tone that was somehow mature sounding despite the childish words that seemed to leave his lips. He then turned to Isaac, making no effort to speak so that Summer would be unable to hear.
It was clear he liked her sarcasm.
”I like this one,
she can stay.”At that, Isaac let out another laugh, then, after Summer’s quiet comment, he replied a little louder, but still not quite at regular volume. His eyes were on Martin with another laugh threatening to sound.
”I know.”
She looked Martin up and down, very pointedly. “Compensating for something?” Summer said sweetly. “Is that why people think you’re older than your age?”
“Is all your family like this?”
