"I'm sorry, Cherline baby, mommy suddenly felt sleepy at that time, so I asked your two aunties to bring you back,"
Ella Lacey explained in detail, with an apologetic tone, "However, later, your daddy called and said he would go to school to pick you up..."
"Silly mommy."
The little one wasn't blaming her for not picking her up, just worried that something might have happened to her.
Instinctively.
The little one had a hunch, that for a while now, things might not be so peaceful...
Nine o'clock in the evening.
The gathering was over.
Obby Stuart was the first to leave the Harpers because he had already fallen asleep in Tercy Mason's arms.
And Edbert Walker kept pestering Cherline Lindsey, which somewhat disrupted the Lindsey Family's departure.
Watching Ella Lacey get into the car, Yolanda Bardot breathed a huge sigh of relief.
Thankfully, she hadn't had an episode tonight.
Otherwise, the consequences would have been unimaginable.
