Belinda said, "Did I mention you? I didn't say any specific name; why assume it's you?"
Byran, fuming, glared at Belinda and said, "You.."
Seeing the two about to start bickering, Ellinor quickly intervened, "Okay, enough, you two. Eat your food quietly and stop talking, or you'll choke."
Belinda obediently nodded, ignoring Byran, and started eating her breakfast quietly as Ellinor suggested.
Byran glanced at Ellinor, snorted arrogantly, and dug into his fried egg.
Haillie watched this scene, feeling quite disgruntled.
How had Ellinor snag Theo's attention, control the capricious Belinda, and now even Byran was willing to listen to her?
This was a mess.
Ellinor may look young, but she was way more experienced than anyone had anticipated!
...
The weather was great; the sun shone, and a cool breeze blew - perfect kite-flying weather.
Ellinor held up a kite while Belinda ran ahead with the reel. The kite soon soared high in the sky.
The kite flew high and far, and the two girls laughed and flew the kite together, having a great time.
Suddenly, Haillie came up with a butterfly kite, gently asking Belinda, "Belinda, can you help me fly this kite? It's a bit hard for me to manage alone."
