Chapter 49: A lot of Conversation

It ended up being most of Samuel's friends who were interested in getting to know Lena more than his Uncle and family had been. His cousin, Fran had been polite and asked a few questions and talked with her at first after everyone else had arrived, but didn't stick around long before she went back to be near where her family was positioned in the living room.

With the addition of so many people being there, the living room had been shifted around to accommodate the numbers by moving the furniture further back in the room and leaving the middle floor open for people to stand and chat. Samuel's parents were setting it up so eventually they would be moving out towards the back yard area where tables, and grill had been setup. Lena didn't know much about what a barbeque entailed, but it didn't sound bad from the way that Roger and Sam had explained it to her, plus being outside meant that there would be more space away from people.
