“Why not?” Farley asked in confusion.
“Because, Farley, your first priority should be to focus on your studies. Get into a good college, then we can think about other things.”
“But, I’m doing well at school while developing mobile games. I can handle both, why not let me try?”
“I know the gaming market is huge, but it’s also very competitive.”
Before Hannah could finish, Farley’s eyes welled up with tears. “You just don’t believe in me.”
“That’s not true, Farley. I do have money to invest in your game. You don’t need to sign contracts with strangers. As long as you get into a good college, I can fund your project.”e2
“Hey, Hannah, investing isn’t a piece of cake. You don’t know…”
“I might not know, but I can pay someone who does, right? I can hire someone to manage it. What’s there to worry about?”
“Maybe I could be your manager, Hannah. No charges.
“No thanks, Steven. Listen, just because you’re trying to please my family doesn’t mean I’ll back down.”
Steven didn’t know how to respond. That was precisely what he was thinking. Hence, he had nothing to say.
After overhearing their conversation, Farley understood the power dynamics between his sister and Steven. “Okay, Hannah. I’ll do as you say.”
“Good. If you ever need help, you can always ask me. I can find someone to help if I can’t. But never involve outsiders.”
The word outsiders clearly meant someone at present.
Farley glanced at Steven, seemingly apologetic. “Sorry, bro. She’s the one wearing the pants now.”
Steven ruffled Farley’s hair in response. That kid was a sly one. Among the Abelson family, Farley was the shrewdest.
After spending a couple of days at the Abelson’s, Steven was chased out by Hannah with a broomstick on the second day of the Christmas. Once he left, he texted Hannah via WhatsApp, [Are you heading to Riverton in a couple of days?]
She didn’t reply, so he texted again, [I’m also heading that way. I can book the tickets for both of us.]
After a while, Hannah finally replied, [A few days ago was my ovulation period. If neither of us has any issues, I might be pregnant. Let’s not meet until I’m sure.]
Her reply was cold as ice. Steven felt a sharp pain in his heart. He thought she was just kidding, but now she had really decided to have a baby without him.
Steven texted again, [Hannah, if you’re really pregnant, you’ll need someone to take care of you. Can I stay by your side to look after you and the baby?]
No reply.
[Hannah, a child without a father might feel insecure and might be bullied.]
[Hannah, we don’t have to remarry. You don’t have to give me any status in your life. But you should think about the child.]
[Hannah.]
When he sent the fourth message, a red exclamation mark appeared on the chat page. Hannah had deleted him from her WhatsApp contacts again.
