Chapter 32 Interference

• Logan and Serena rushed into the living room, finding that Olivia and Oliver had been jumping on the c ouch. Their activity had knocked a few of the picture frames off a nearby shelf. The frames and glass were broken on the floor. Serena p ut her hands on her hips again. “Olivia, Oliver, get off the couch!” Serena said firmly. Oliver slid off the couch, cheeks red with embarrassment. Olivia wasn‘t jumping anymore, and she dropped down into a seated position on the couch. “Sorry, mommy,” Oliver said, still looking at the floor. He tried to pick up shards of glass.
• “No!” Serena said, reaching down and stopping Oliver from touching the glass. “I will pick it up, but the two of you have to apologize to Logan and be more careful.” “Serena, really, it is okay,” Lo gan said. Serena headed to the kitchen to get a broom and dustpan. It wasn‘t the first mess she‘d had to clean up of theirs. It was the biggest and the only one that consisted of things that didn‘t belong to them.
• “I‘m sorry, Logan,” Serena said, bringing the broom and dustpan back in. “Did you apologize yet?” she gave Olivia and Oliver a harsh look. “There‘s no need;” Logan said, shaking his head. Serena looked at him, raising an eyebrow.
