Why does she always turn up when I’m acting so out of character?
Letting out a sigh, she came to their side with a smile on her face. She had been about to scold them (although softly) for running off so suddenly, but seeing them so happy stopped her in her tracks.
“You look happy boys,” She crouched down beside them, looking at the two smiling faces with adoration. She then handed both of them £50 before standing back up.
