Oione bit back a groan of almost physical pain as Seth brilliantly reached a new, higher level of tactlessness. Who in their right mind told their mother that she was getting fat, especially when you so obviously had a baby sibling (another one in Seth's case, especially after last revelations) on its way?
How many hints did one need to actually understand subtleties of nature?
Oione couldn't decide whether to elbow Seth or just continue with looking bewildered with his hopelessness, she glanced to the right and her mother gave her the look, the 'how did you end up with someone so stupid' one and this time Oione couldn't even form a protest.
Oione took a deep breath. It didn't help so she tried for another one, because for the time being that was the only thing that kept her from smacking him up the head.
It came alsmot as a relief when the women left, shutting the door behind them.
Oione just couldn't help but stare at him when he turned to her and what he said next just left her speechless with incredulity.
"Seth, listen..." she started in a breathy voice, carefully gathering the words together. All of sudden the sentence had various ways of being finished with 'do you know where do babies come from?', 'has someone failed to inform you about the birds and the bees?' and 'next Christmas I'm so getting you a real brain' were amogst them.
She settled upon. "Don't you think that there's something behind her getting fat?"
Her voice cracked a bit. That was hopeless, because whenever she tried to make Seth think it ended with strained nerves and someone having a breakdown.
