Mackenzie was on his way back from the barn to pick Xchylar from his perch when he saw Catherine's visitor arrive. He'd seen her around before but never bothered as he was too busy napping away. He's just 3 and 3/4. Almost 4, actually. And so with Xchylar the eagle owl on his shoulder, and a bag of chicken nuggets that Noah brought home for him before speeding off to see his football gang, he quickened his pace towards the house. He was, he supposed, Noah's official burger-run buddy since he couldn't exactly ask Catherine to be his partner in crime. Although Mackenzie could talk, he sure can keep a secret about their adventure. He liked the thrill of getting out of the house and getting his favorite snack along the way, only today, Noah thought it'll be too risky to do it with him since he was going to go off with his friends after.
The little boy and youngest Mordaunt offspring followed the two girls quietly inside the house while also looking out for another company. He still wasn't sure about Cecelia as she was the total opposite of Catherine. Gifted with a heightened skill in observation (to make up for the almost mute trait), he felt that something wasn't right. How could she tolerate Cecelia, but not Scarlett? Or Noah?
When the curious boy reached the twins' bedroom, Mackenzie quietly took a peek first, only to see them...quietly painting. Things seem to be normal, but the energy coming from the girl next to his sister was all dark clouds and thunder. Another observation that clashed with Cecelia's clothing.
Mackenzie gently pushed the door open and allowed himself inside. In his baggy clothing and untied shoes, the little boy stood a good distance away from the two girls to closely observe them. Bright green eyes darted from Catherine, and then to Cecelia.
They were exceptionally quiet today, weren't they? Well, maybe except for the sound of the paper bag being opened as Mackenzie kept his gaze on the two of them while fishing out a piece of chicken nugget with his tiny hand.
So far, it was an interesting show to look at. Even Xchylar seemed curious.
