Preparing Hazel

Although he was a bit hesitant, Neil could only take his friend, Henry back to his house. His family and Henry's family have known each other for a long time and Sophie was overjoyed when that man told her that he was coming over to have dinner together. 

Of course, once Neil saw that his friend had directly pulled Edith aside to chat, Neil had immediately regretted his decision to bring this friend back home. 

Neil glanced at his friend and Henry's bright expression showed that he was not going to give up though Neil had told him the kindergarten teacher already have someone she liked.

Earlier, Henry had casually mentioned some guns, and Edith took the bait and the two has been discussing Edith's shooting experience.

This silly woman was amazing. She even knew how to fire a gun!

Neil was surprised that Edith had knowledge of some guns, but with her grandfather's profession as police, it doesn't seem strange that the woman would know a few things.
