Didn't the Government have regulations on the number of days students were meant to be in school? He couldn't fathom the girls having an extra week of holiday. Surely this would mean a later summer, something he couldn't imagine anyone appreciating. Not that they paid much attention to such things. From what he'd gathered they took holidays in strides; celebrated when they got them and whined about waiting for them during terms.
This wouldn't necessarily have been a problem if not for the....relocation of the Ministry Departments. The Daycare was a considerable distance from the condemned building and while he didn't necessarily want his nieces that far away, a decrepit building that threatened to collapse even if you looked at it too hard, was no place for children.
Whoa....
The 9 year old took in everything with avid curiosity. This wasn't the place her uncle worked, they didn't even go the same way. She noticed. This place was...new....and interesting and she bet Avery wouldn't like it but it didn't bother her; not the dark corners, not the old rooms they passed and not the fact that her uncle said this place used to be for mad people. Did they still have them? Could she talk to them? This place was WAY cooler than that baby place she had to stay in before with all those bright colours and children.
She didn't want to play with them and they wouldn't let her play with the toys. Ashley took in the white room. It really WAS a nut house! "Uncle Gavin." She whispered loudly, tugging at the hand she was holding. "Do you think we can play with the patients?"
She was NOT staying. Non! Non! Non! Non! This place wasn't for her. Clearly her uncle was dropping off Ashley then they could go to his nice office. She'd seen it before allllll the way at the top floor of the pretty building. Ashley said mad people lived in A-syyy-lums, she wasn't mad! And mad people hurt children! And and and just non!
The 7 year old clung tightly to her uncle's other hand, hoping he would get the hint. She didn't care that she didn't see any mad people on the way to the kid room. They were probably hiding. Avery let out a little squeak at Ashley's question. She didn't want to play with them.
Gavin glanced down at the tugging. He'd already expected Ashley to have questions after telling her about this place. Didn't he mention this place hadn't been used in Merlin knew how long? Poor thing, she'd be disappointed. "Eh...no. There aren't any." Ignoring, he was ignoring Avery's clinging. "Bet you'll still find something to do." Whether that was fortunate or not, he didn't know.
