Chapter 7 - Clone interlude

 

Liv tries to tell her mom that she should go to her boss and beg to get her job back. But her mom do not seem to listen. Instead she is intently focused on her food. Liv does not mind though. After that heated phonecall some days ago her mom got everything had become much less stressfull around the house. Hermom had tried to explain to her when she asked, but she had not trully understood. Something about a grant running out and no research anymore. As she had time for that now anyway now when she was a mom. Still worried though she had asked:

-Does that mean we have to move, mom?

-No honey, we will not have to move. We just have to make our money on our own thats all. The house is ours to rent for as long as we want.

I have begun to love to start developing and investigating the character of the children in this story. To start with I had a pretty solid idea. But theír actions clearly tol me otherwise.

 

When it comes to what happened to the institute I realised I had to change the story down the road due to my own incompetence. I had before had this vague idea of actually making Rose manage both a large family and gardening, and science AND nectar. Which as you have noticed was pretty darn impossible. So I had to creat a plan -B into why they kept on staying in that house.
