Kapitel 785: V3 ch20

Jeremy and Rose stayed for dinner Monday night. Dad and Mom talked to them about the details and worked on the planning of flights and hotel stay. 

"I've got the hotel covered." Jeremy told them when we got to that point. 

Mom frowned. "No, it's okay. We don't need you to pay for everything."

"I want to." Jeremy answered a little stiffly. "This is my invitation for everyone. Not just Jake. You all deserve a short vacation. I know Jake would want to celebrate his birthday with all of you there. You don't have to worry about a thing."

Mom gave Dad a meaningful look. 

Dad looked towards me, Noah and the twins. "Why don't you boys go take your showers and get started on your homework?"

The twins got up and made a move first, not willing to get involved. I hesitated and Noah stuck with me.
