caleb was nothing shy of delighted to hear a young child take interest in cricket facts.Β βthatβs very true.β he looked at yuxi.Β βoh, sheβs probably younger than gen z. iβm not saying that gen z doesnβt have its share of passionate, curious youth, but some of them are in that stage where they think theyβre too cool for books.β okay, maybe in this instance he was specifically referring to his sister nova and her friends making fun of him for being a nerd, but that was neither here nor there. he chuckled good-naturedly at the caretakerβs words.Β βiβm pretty good at handling younger people, unless i suppose itβs a bunch of rowdy college kids in a band.β
there was a twitch of her lips as nora watched yuxi give a smile and a shy nod at the manβs reply. she was always concerned about the childβs responses, especially after the talk about childrenβs grief with a professional, and most days she wished she could do better.Β βhmm?β nora sucked in a breath as she thought about the day yuxi would no longer be interested in the things she is now.Β βoh. I hope Iβll have some time before that. I donβt know if Iβm ready for her to think sheβs too cool for books ...or start a band, for that matter. Iβll have to think of some way to apologize to the neighbours for all the noise.β more so than she already does with the noise they currently make.
