Odie took her time getting out of the car.
She had to make sure that her facial expressions were impeccable and that her eyes weren't red and puffy.
The very last thing she wanted was for her little incident just now to result in another family sit-down. It would only make K'ael hate her more and increase the tensions around the house.
Sighing, Odessa slapped herself on the cheeks twice for good luck before she entered the house.
Coming in through the garage door, Odessa arrived within the east wing.
The layout of the estate was a bit similar to the last home they had in Tehom.
The West Wing was for children, the Central for Abaddon, Ayaana, and Zahara, and the East was for extended family. However, different amenities were spread throughout.
Sometimes, Odie had friends over, but it was rare.
She felt weird bringing people over when her house was so... atypical.
