Even though Mike swore up and down he didn't need Aella's help, she was still slightly bent over the counter, mixing the sauce as she tried to keep her eyes open while Abby babbled away.

Mike was in his room, and Abby was propped up against the coffee table, on the floor coloring. She tried to stay awake long enough and see if Abby would get tired enough to take a nap, but she never is.

She never caused much trouble when Aella was working at her school, she just stayed to herself and drew.

Aella hears Mike coming from down the hall, now dressed in a hoodie instead of his security vest. They make eye contact as Aella stands up fully, trying to shake away her sleepy eyes.

"Hey Abs, what you working on?" He asks his younger sister as he sits on the couch. She remains silent, a contrast to how she was with Aella a few moments ago.

"Alright," Mike decides, knowing his sister was too stubborn to budge. "I guess you don't want this then." He holds out the security badge Vanessa gave him.

Aella was plating Abby's food quietly as they interacted, separating the pasta and the sauce like she asked.

Mike throws open the junk drawer next to the kitchen, causing Aella to look at him. The badge makes a clinking noise against all the other rubbish in there before he shuts it closed again.
