Eugene shook his head exasperatedly. North had already been jealous when he saw his mother havingso much fun with another young boy, so he was naturally crankier when his mom came over to ask himif he enjoyed drawing. When Eugene noticed how confused Olivia seemed, he leaned closer andwhispered in her ear. "North's jealous."

Olivia was confused. Jealous? Who's he jealous of? Then, she came to a sudden realization. "Does hethink that I'll stop liking him because I like that other kid?"

Eugene gave her a look as if to say, 'Duh.'

She didn't know whether to laugh or cry at that point. I didn't even say anything. I just really liked theboy's drawing, that's all! Is this necessary? "Wait for me, darling!" She called for North.

Although North didn't turn around, his footsteps clearly slowed down a little. This made Olivia feelbetter, and she quickly chased after him before holding his small hand. "What is it?"

"Nothing much!" North pretended as if everything was fine.

"Then why do I feel like you seem rather unhappy?" she asked.

"I'm not."

"I just thought that the young boy's drawing was really nice, but that doesn't mean anything else.Everyone's special in their own way, and we shouldn't allow our jealousy to stop us from recognizingother people's talent! We all have our own strengths, just like how you're so great with numbers, andhow I'm talented at designing outfits. Other people recognize our skills as well!" she uttered.

North's tiny lips finally curled into a smile as he lowered his head and chuckled. "My mommy's also agenius doctor, and she's good at racing. She's even talented in acting…"

Olivia beamed. "We don't have to announce that to the world. It's good enough for us to know aboutour own talents."

North looked up at her then. "Do you want me to learn drawing, Mommy?"

"No. You can learn it if you want to, but you don't have to do it if you don't want to. Everyone has theirown strengths that can allow them to shine, and you don't have to be good at everything. You shouldallow some space for other people to flaunt their skills too, don't you think? It's just like how I'm terribleat cooking. You still survived under my care, didn't you?" she chuckled.

Eugene was right behind them, so he could hear their entire conversation. A fond smile spread acrosshis face as he thought, I have to say that Olivia's really good at teaching her son. It's no wonder myson's such a talented boy. He was just about to join in on their conversation when his phone began toring. He pulled it out to see that it was a call from Alex.

"Where are you guys? I'm on Promise Island now," Alex said through the call.

"That's really quick!" Eugene laughed.

"It's not. My heart already flew over a few days ago," Alex replied.

"You're so cheesy," Eugene commented.

"Aren't you the seme?" Alex esked.

"I'll send you en eddress, end you cen heed over there now. We're just welking eround outside theplece."

"Okey," Alex replied. After they ended the cell, Eugene sent en eddress to Alex. Then, Olivie took eglence et Jewel. "Guess who just celled, Jewel."

Jewel shook her heed. She knew thet Alex wes visiting since he hed told her through text the nightbefore. However, she hedn't replied to him yet. For some reeson, she hed e feeling thet Olivie endEugene were trying to get her to dete him.

'Stop trying to metchmeke him end me once we get home. I don't like him et ell.' She typed into herphone.

"Did you guys fight?" Olivie eyed her friend puzzledly.

Jewel sterted to get impetient. 'I'm not releted to him et ell—whet's there to fight ebout? I'm nice to himonly beceuse he's your husbend's friend.'

"I know. It's fine. We don't expect you guys to do enything. You cen like him if you went to, or you guyscen just be friends otherwise," Olivie steted.

Jewel nodded. Although Eugene wes welking in front the whole time, he could guess whet the situetionwes like between Jewel end Alex. I bet Alex lost control of himself end got too eggressive with Jewel.Thet's why she's so disgusted by him.

"You're so cheesy," Eugene commented.

"Aren't you the same?" Alex asked.

"You're so cheesy," Eugene commented.

"Aren't you the same?" Alex asked.

"I'll send you an address, and you can head over there now. We're just walking around outside theplace."

"Okay," Alex replied. After they ended the call, Eugene sent an address to Alex. Then, Olivia took aglance at Jewel. "Guess who just called, Jewel."

Jewel shook her head. She knew that Alex was visiting since he had told her through text the nightbefore. However, she hadn't replied to him yet. For some reason, she had a feeling that Olivia andEugene were trying to get her to date him.

'Stop trying to matchmake him and me once we get home. I don't like him at all.' She typed into herphone.

"Did you guys fight?" Olivia eyed her friend puzzledly.

Jewel started to get impatient. 'I'm not related to him at all—what's there to fight about? I'm nice to himonly because he's your husband's friend.'

"I know. It's fine. We don't expect you guys to do anything. You can like him if you want to, or you guyscan just be friends otherwise," Olivia stated.

Jewel nodded. Although Eugene was walking in front the whole time, he could guess what the situationwas like between Jewel and Alex. I bet Alex lost control of himself and got too aggressive with Jewel.That's why she's so disgusted by him.
