Yet, Samuel could not help himself from thinking about June, who was really well dressed that night.
Spencer too thought of Lulu and it seemed that he was not opposed to the idea.
"Stop what? Let's organize a family barbeque this weekend. Nicole, bring those two girls over. Sean and Steve? Invite your previous companions over as well."
At that moment, a surge of instant regret flooded Steve. 'Me and my big mouth.'
Sean began to feel awkward too, and in resignation, he said, "Mom, Nicole still has filming to do during the weekends."
Nicole, however, smiled. "I don't need to film this weekend. If it's for your future, I'll definitely return home for it."
The second she said that, all five of her elder brothers looked at her helplessly.
In an attempt to steer the conversation, Samuel looked at Stanley and said, "Mom, why are you worried about us and not Stanley?"
In reply, Stanley rolled his eyes at them. "My partner is already living here."
He had no need to invite anyone. Tia was like family, and because of that, he was totally unfazed.
Seeing that, both Samuel and Spencer felt a pang of jealousy for Stanley.
Tia was always at home taking care of Mrs. Wallace Sr., and was just like a younger sister to them, so it was natural for them to get along without any sort of awkwardness.
"Good, that settles things then. I want to see who is the least capable of you lot this weekend. At least one of you won't be able to bring a girlfriend back," Gloria said.
After provoking her sons in deliberate fashion, Gloria smiled as she went upstairs, with Nicole following right behind.
Behind her, the brothers began arguing with each other in the living room, cursing out and lamenting among one another because of Steve's big mouth.
Steve really wanted to give himself a proper slap or two, but it would not help things as it stood.
The next day, Lulu and June saw Nicole arriving at school, and in a tone of concern, they asked. "Nicole, why is it that there are always problems with your filming crew? I heard a paparazzi saying that Lloyd got injured as well?"
