River's eyes turned huge, anger flashing through her, causing her scrawny figure to appear larger. "Ya'know, Ms. Whatever, you remind me of my blood mother. Anyway, get out of my house. Now, woman. Isabelle can stay here, with me and my father. I suppose you should be going, then. Unpacking will take you a good while alone."
“Oh well this must be him” Aclana passed the kitten to him, “I really found him wondering and so I kept him so here you go”
Isabelle smiles meekly, “nobody has ever stuck up for me before like that, thank you”
Aclana looked pale and if it was even possible she paled more, “never mind I should be going”
River smiled cruelly at the door, where the woman had vanished through. "Don't mention it, I hardly did anything." And I would have liked to have done more, you don't just throw your daughter out for being a little snippy. Her eyes turned on Isabelle, her look softening. "You okay?"
“Yeah, I have had this happen before, I was 8 and I had to spend the night at a neighbors house because she wouldn’t let me back in, my father would never stand for this” she looked at River “thanks, if I’m imposing please let me know and I’ll go”
River's face didn't react, but she had to fight down a low snarl. What kind of disgusting mother? Seems we both got the short end on mothers. "Imposing? Dude, you didn't ask to stay here, I told you to. I doubt Dad will mind you staying here for awhile." She paused. "Uh, you want anything? There's some extra spicy buffalo chicken wings in there..."
“I’m fine thank you” Isabelle said smiling “she always favoured my older brother and then he got killed in a car accident and now she hates everyone”
