Tempest smiled and said, "Didn't you dislike me for not having smart robots? And it’s the 99 dollar kind."
Jenson's expression was defeated. "How long before I can go home?"
Tempest was a little at a loss.
"Well, it depends on the school’s vacation time."
Jenson looked at him suspiciously. "What are you being nervous about?"
Tempest quibbled, "I'm not!"
Jenson said, "You obviously were."
Tempest retorted, "Whatever you say."
Jenson was speechless.

"Jens, it’s okay to cry if you miss Daddy and Mommy. Uncle won't laugh at you." Tempest felt his heart sour.
Jenson turned around and glared at the man. "Who said I'm going to cry? After you send me to the school, you'll immediately go back to Imperial Capital."
Tempest was about to cry. "Jenson, do you dislike me?"
"I don't despise you."
"But you do?"
"Daddy needs you more than I do."

"Jens, do you know something?" Tempest probed carefully.
Jenson nodded. "He chased Mommy away and then sent me away. It should be Baby Robbie next. The girl Baby Zetty is stupid, so she must be the last to leave him."
Tempest,"..."
