 Bernie & Isla! ^_^ ~ Mrs. Steve Harrington ~ It be like that sometimes.
Glad that the subject of Cole was behind her (though unlike Isla, she did not find him cute. He was regular looking like everyone else but not cute), Claudine pounced on the other topics at hand. And yes, she was more interested in forming a conversation with her Housemate now that she had it in her head that Bernie didn’t want to be her friend anymore, based on the girl’s demeanour. Furthermore, Claudine chose to ignore the huff, whatever it was about. “Fine. We’ll buy two each and then you’d never have to be my friend again.’’ Her reply to Bernie was condensed into those words, her tone cold. One could figuratively hear the walls she had let down for Bernie going back up again.
Sammy really was a trusting rat. Not that there was anything about Isla to be suspicious of, was there? “Right? I didn’t know I wanted a pet until I saw him.’’ Claudine was very happy with having him around, though a lot of the times he had been snoozing after she had adopted him. “Does this mean you find lessons boring?’’ Isla wouldn’t be judged on that because sometimes Claudine did too. She watched Sammy sniff at Isla’s ear.
