He didn’t get a chance to finish before my nephew cut in.
“You lost! Pay me now!”
I gave my nephew a stern look.
“This is my boyfriend and a guest in our home. Didn’t your parents teach you any manners or respect?”
My nephew, startled by my tone, started crying.
“I don’t care! He lost! Pay up!”
“Norah, why are you going after Jack like that? He’s just a kid,” Luna said, coming out of the bedroom.
As she got closer, she was practically jabbing her finger at me.
Zachary quickly moved in front of me, holding my hand.
“Norah, you’re in your thirties. You shouldn’t be acting this way.”
My brother chimed in, backing her up.
With his reinforcements, my nephew’s voice got even louder.
“You owe me 80 dollars! Pay up!”
“My dad does this with other people and on the computer all the time. He’s got tons of money.”
