Sara smiled warmly as she left Dayton’s house with Stephanie and Chloe in tow behind her. She could feel the marginal weight of Jordan on her shoulder as she walked down the sidewalk toward her car. She still felt angry, mad, and hurt that he had tried to run. He tried to play it off as he was trying to find her. He wanted to be with her. However, she knew otherwise. He was trying to run away.
She wanted to yell at him. She wanted to scream. She wanted to hear how he could justify the actions and choices that he made this afternoon. All of these were made without thinking about the late nights she had spent figuring out his tax situation for the year and then using her own money to pay off his remaining tax obligation. He didn’t think about the time she spent tracking down a number for his family as he didn’t want to bother them, but someone had to at least tell them what happened.
Nothing was more infuriating than the fact she had gone through all this training. All this expense in forms and fees while also spending a lot of money on clothes, accessories, on little items that he would need. She closed out his estate, which was no little task, and yet the moment things don’t go to his liking, the solution is to run away.
Sara had thought that it would be easier with an adult. However, they are just as messed up as the rest of us. They are just as hurtful and inconsiderate as anyone else. However, she also understood his plight to some degree. He had lost everything and was starting over. He had lost his independence and now was living in a world that often viewed him as less than others.
It was a hot-button issue at the moment. Even between her and Chloe, it had caused a few heated arguments when it comes to exactly where the line is drawn. As Sara can’t get past the science. Jordan is genetically different from her. He has different needs, and his species will develop separately as years and centuries go by. Nothing can change that. There is currently testing going on that is saying underbreds may be more durable proportionally than humans.
Chloe, however, believes that even though they are small despite what the science says. Despite the fact, they are classified differently. As littles would be homo-parvus instead of homo-sapiens. That they are the same. It wasn’t a dealbreaker obviously. However, they had to work to come to an understanding. It was made more difficult now by the fact that Sara actually owns an underbred now.
As Sara unlocked the car and slid into the driver’s seat she placed her hand next to her shoulder. She knew Jordan would step onto her hand as he did. He had learned that much where she didn’t need to ask him to walk onto her hand. He would just do it. As he stepped onto her hand her training immediately came in. She could glide her hand about with ease while keeping it level and even for him. It was similar to a rise and descent of a plane. Sara watched Stephanie sit down next to her, so she moved her hand towards Stephanie. As she knew Chloe would be reluctant.
Looking at Jordan in Stephanie’s hand Sara could see how tired he looked. She knew the day’s events must have taken a toll on him. She wondered if maybe he should stay home tomorrow and rest a bit. As it was important for him to go to school, and she needed him for that project with Maisey. She still was concerned about his health. She figured she would wait and see how he felt in the morning.

“I can’t believe he doesn’t appreciate all the work I’ve done to help him just because I’ve hidden it from him and chosen not to include him in any of it” is such a teenage thought process on Sara’s part.
Worst part is she’s only really achieving the bare minimum, and she wants him to grovel at her feet like she’s gone above and beyond for him.
She’s also upset that he didn’t consider details she deliberately tried to hide from him.
The line that pissed me off the most was “yet the moment things don’t go to his liking, the solution is to run away” fucking nothing had gone his way since he shrank, the amount of ego required to think so highly of herself even with how often she’s been shitty to him made me have to stop reading and calm down before finishing the chapter the first time I read it.
Sounds like a few girlfriends I’ve had over the years honestly.
