Melody glanced at Beatrice and waved.
"Have fun," said Beatrice.
Thalia could not refuse when Beatrice had made things so clear. Each of them was absorbed in their own thoughts as they walked toward the car.
When they reached the car, Thalia promptly took the passenger seat to stop Melody from sitting there. She opened the car door and smiled at Melody. "I get motion sickness, so do you mind if I sit here? I've always sat here, so I've gotten super used to it already." She sported a slightly apologetic expression as if sitting anywhere else would be the end of her.
"Fine by me. It's the same anyway," Melody replied.
Lucas glanced at the rearview mirror and said, "Buckle up. We're going to check out some other places for Thalia."
Melody was taken aback. "Isn't she supposed to stay with us? Why are we going to view other houses?"
On the bright side, Melody would be spared the unease of having to see or interact with Thalia if the latter moved out, but doing so would require Lucas to meet Thalia alone. Work alone was taxing enough, and having to divide his time between taking care of another person at another place would be an even bigger burden on him.
Melody felt that it would be much easier to just let Thalia stay there, despite the awkwardness it would bring.
Melody's confusion was genuine, but Thalia seemed to be ungrateful. "Won't you be happy if I move out?"

The readers' comments on the novel: The Day I Kissed An Older Man
This book is a good book, but it’s too short. I hope it has a part two👍🏾...
This book is getting boring now. I loved Jeremy, Corinne, Sonny and Lucas. The story needs to end. or bring back more of Jeremy, etc....
I haven't skipped any chapter at all. Though the story is good, it keeps going back to base one. I think this has no ending at all and somehow after reading more than 2500 chapters it's kinda tiring already. They have drained all the thrills....
Great writing! I almost cried when Helen hit Melody! So sad! 😭 can’t wait to see how the relationship with her and Lucas develops though. So tired of the repetitive problems with different people....
Yikes my body tenses so much, my moods change as the scenes change. It leaves me wanting to continue reading....
my heart breaks for melody, so many ups and downs, i shed a few tears when lucas walked by melody carrying thalia, and melody stayed quiet while watching them leave. i find myself getting into character as if im one. i dont remember ever feeling like that in any other books. im thankful the 10 chapters/day. waiting for the next 10...
We have updated progress from 7 chapters/day to 10 chapters/day.<3...
i love grandma Beatrice, there needs to me more people like her in the world straight forward and to the point, no beating around the bush and worrying about offending anyone, why pretend to be someone your not....
looking forward to more chapters, The same thing is happening to Melody as what happened to Luna, if Luna was back maybe she would set Lucas straight, can't wait to see how Lucas handles the situations that will arrive. Poor Melody....
ya Lucas pay more attention to Melody lets see what happens waiting for more chapters thanks...
