"Leave it to tomorrow, but this ...... what to do with it?" Linda pointed to the box in her hand.
Violet pursed her red lips, "Just throw it away."
"Don't you want to see what's in there?" Linda asked.
Violet's face was as cold as ice, "No need, yesterday's delivery was that kind of thing, so what's in this box is obviously not good either, so forget it, lest you get shocked."
"You're right, but I'd still like to see it." Linda responded.
Violet raised an eyebrow, "You're not afraid?"
"It's okay, but human being are just so weird. Even if I am scared, I am curious and want to find it out." Linda said with a shrug of her shoulders.
Violet handed her the box, "Then open it, and when you're done, tell me what's inside."
Linda took the box and nodded repeatedly.
Seeing that she was about to open the box, Violet hurriedly stopped it, "Wait, the two kids are still here, you can open it after we leave."
"You're right." Linda stopped moving her hands.
Violet took the two children's hands, "Come out after you finish, we'll go wait for you in the car."
With that, she pulled her two children out of the lounge.
After waiting in the car for about half an hour, Linda arrived late with a grim face.
Violet's eyes narrowed and she asked in a deep voice, "What's wrong? Is something scary in there?"
"No, it's much better than that of yesterday." Linda said as she closed the car door.
Violet looked at her, "What's in there?"
Linda didn't answer, but looked at the two children.
Seeing this, Violet covered Arya's ears.
As for Calvin, she didn't mind.
Calvin knew about the cat corpse from yesterday, and it made no difference to hear about today's.
And through today, she had come to understand that Calvin was far more tolerant than she had thought.
So Calvin could listen if he wanted to.
Linda understood Violet's meaning, so seeing that Calvin didn't cover his ears, she said what she had seen "It was a box of cockroaches, alive ones, as soon as I opened it, they flew out and flew everywhere, some even crawled onto my face, slimy and made me sick."
With that, she rubbed her arms in disgust, her face covered in disgust.
Violet pictured the image she described in her mind and felt she was to throw out.
However, Violet looked towards Calvin to see if he was disgusted.
To her surprise, Calvin didn't react as strongly as they did, other than a tight frown.
It seemed that his mental capacity, too, was better than she had thought.
"And then what, what about those cockroaches?" Violet took a deep breath, suppressing the discomfort inside, and asked again.
Linda took out a bottle of ice water from the car fridge and opened it, drinking half of it in one gulp before calming that sick feeling in her heart back, "I screamed out when those cockroaches flew out, then a staff member came over to check it out, and when he saw the cockroaches in the lounge, his face went black, then he told me to catch all those cockroaches before letting me out."
"No wonder it took you so long to get out." Violet nodded.
