Axel yawned as he wake up late in the afternoon, Brent had already left that morning and he had expected the house to be empty as he walked around in just his boxers, heading to the kitchen to make a cup of tea and feed the birds.
“Hi!!!” Hailey jumped off the couch, dropping her magazine to the floor, and skipped after Axel into the kitchen. “I made pancakes!!”
Hailey smiled then shook her head at him. She eyed the sink, where he’d drained her tea, and pondered for a moment before looking back at him. “Y’know, if you and Brent keep this up, I just might start to think you’re a murderous couple, and Brent moved out so Dad and I don’t get in trouble with the cops,” she said, her tone half-ironic. “But really, what are you guys keeping from me? I wanna know. I won’t tell the police, I promise.”
.”Its nothing that you could go to the cops on, but we have secrets just like everyone else.” HE told her as he sipped his tea and had a mouthful of pancake. “Brent like to keep to himself and so do I so it is perfect that we live together.” He smiled before looking at her. “And if I told you my secret you would think I am insane.”
