Aiden returned to the house that afternoon and made lunch for everyone before they scattered again. Carter went to follow Aiden’s family around, Ari backing him up, and Ivan was out ‘researching’ something. Aiden had every intention of going through the short list of possible places he could do a residency, the list he’d started on and not finished, but a cough and snuffle from Remi stopped him dead in his tracks.

He backtracked into the blue room and gave her a concerned look. “Remi? You feeling okay?”

Remi’s head came up from her book and she blinked at him. “Yeah, why?”

“You’re making snuffly noises.”

Ari’s and Carter’s reaction over the earbuds was immediate and in perfect unison: “What’s wrong with Remi?”

“Hang on, let me do a quick exam.” Aiden went back into the kitchen to grab a spoon, snagged the first aid kit so he could borrow the thermometer out of it, then returned to her side. “Remi, have you had a doctor look at you before?”

She shook her head no even as she watched him with curious, innocent eyes. “No. I got shots, though.”

“Yeah, that’s a little different. I won’t be giving you shots. Let’s take your temperature first, just in case.” Aiden put the thermometer under her tongue, then carefully examined the inside of her ears with his small flashlight, her eyes, and carefully palpated her throat. No signs of anything—in fact, she was so normal it was almost suspicious. When the thermometer went off, he pulled it free and gave it a look. Also normal. Using the spoon, he depressed her tongue and took a good look at her tonsils. “Remi, is your stomach happy? Or is anything uncomfortable?”

“No,” she declared with a small shake of the head. “Why?”

“Just double checking. You’re looking okay to me. Ari, Carter, looks like she’s not sick, but I’m seeing a slight irritation around her nose and the tonsils. I think it’s just minor allergies. Something in this area isn’t playing nice. If someone could pick up some Claritin? I think she’ll be fine.”

Ari sounded relieved. “That I can do.”

“Ohuenno,” Ivan said, voice dripping with sarcasm.

Now it was Aiden’s turn to be worried. “What?”

“A pair of thieves are going through your uncle and aunt’s house,” Kyou filled him in, sounding distracted, as if he were actually focused on something else.

“They’re very bad at it,” Ivan added disdainfully. “I do better job than this as teenager. My solnishko would do better than this. I think I go in and teach them how to do their jobs better.”

Three wordless growls warned Ivan off.

Ivan growled back, “No, but this pains me. It pains my soul.”

“You’ll live,” Kyou informed him flatly. Then his tone changed to something more satisfied. “Oh hey, some of the stamps sold. I’m re-routing bank accounts now. Aiden, you’ll have about twenty-six thousand in your account by morning.”

“Oooh, sweet, I could use some moving money.” Aiden had been under the impression that the money would be slower to come to him. He was mildly surprised at Kyou’s announcement.
