Sterling giggled. "Yessss. Let's get Nox." Liam was a party poopper. She didn't say as much but she thought it. How could you not like playing outside? But Hide and Seek did sound fun. Though Sterling hadn't played it in a long time. Here and Rasha used to all the time, but now, they barely saw each other.
Sterling helped all the little girls get their coats, and hats and gloves up it was like herding cats. "Come on Ara, it's not that hard." But the little girl squirmed and squealed. She didn't really want to go home. Home meant more rules. Not that there weren't more rules here, just different and for different reasons -- and they weren't ALL Nox's rules. Most of them were club rules. Ara hated Nox's rules most. She was 4 -- she hated most rules in general.
Liam was cute as he pulled on his puffy jacket and packed his bag. Sterling had to steal her eyes away from them to make sure the kids all got ready to go back to Nox's place.
