Augustus nodded as if the answer was to his expectation. "Please take good care of her." He said in a serious tone before going back to eating.

She nodded and smiled. "Cool. I look forward to meet them. I just, uh, are they as protective as Stella?"

He smiled at her. "You don't have to worry about them."

The week went by so fast with school and work. August also got queries about tutoring for minor subjects. She's got two freshman students asking help for Calculus and Statistics subjects. She will meet them twice during lunch for an hour starting next week.
