Action

Unnoticed, Bernadette has drifted back over to the window, once again peering down at the crowded courtyard.

Philip looks back to his son, much to Adam’s relief.

Philip raises an eye toward Adam, who now shifts his feet back and forth nervously.

Gregory and Bernadette both chuckle as they trade smart-ass yet sweet expressions with each other.

Bernadette strolls across the room, stopping next to Adam at the edge of the bed. She smiles wide at Gregory, while responding to Philip.

Gregory looks over at his sister, annoyed that Bernadette’s attention is elsewhere.

Passing the event’s organizer, Roman barks at the man.

The woman wraps an arm around her brother, and whisks him away. A second later, her vacated spot is quickly filled by a brunette. However, Roman, losing his immediate desire to be adored, turns and works his way back up onto the stage. Keeping his back to the crowd, he fires off a pissed look

The woman steps back, glaring at Roman in disgust.

The boy lowers his notepad and his head, staring down dejected at the grass. Roman returns his sparkling eyes back to the petite blonde.
