章節 72: Martha shudders by a smile

Chapter - 72

As the clock struck seven, the doorknob clicked open.

"I think Alex is not back yet. I didn't see his bike outside," Martha said, entering the house.

"He is working too hard. I told him to take it easy from the first day," George said, berating Alex.

"At least he is sincere towards his work, not like some lazy slob I know," Martha said, defending Alex and in turn made fun of her husband.

"Who are you calling a slob? And what did that good for nothing son of ours achieve? He is yet to bring a girl home. What's the use of working so hard. Don't you think so too, Alex?" George asked Alex, who was staring at them as they walked into the living room, but then it hit him, "Alex? What are you doing home?" George was surprised to find Alex chilling at home watching TV.

"Alex, you are home? And where is your bike?" Martha questioned.

"Will you guys take a chill pill?" Mrs Flores said as she also appeared in front of them.
