" Hi , Finn , " Maeve said sweetly . Finnick scoffed and turned away , clearly not hiding his annoyance . She glanced at the boy next to him . His expression screamed , " I'm too cool for this . " , like he'd stepped out of a teen drama . Calvin stepped in . " That's Marlon , your fourth brother . Your other three brothers are at our aunt's . " Maeve gave him a warm smile . " Hi , Marl ." Marlon just rolled his eyes and snorted . Her youngest brother , Jasper Kerrigan , stepped forward on his own , shy but hopeful . " H - hi ... sis . " Maeve's heart softened . Out of all the brothers , he was the most endearing . She crouched to meet his eyes , smiling gently . " Hi , Jas . " Marlon reacted like she was a threat , yanking Jasper behind him . Finally , Maeve turned to her parents , who had been quietly standing off to the side . She moved closer and pulled them into a hug . " Dad . Mom . " Boyce and Debra Kerrigan teared up right away . They'd figured Maeve had gotten used to luxury and wouldn't want anything to do with them . But she was here , ready to live a hard life with them . They asked Calvin to show her to her room . He led her to what had been Rosalind's room . The family was poor , but it didn't feel like they'd mistreated Rosalind . There were only two bedrooms - one for her , and one shared by all the boys . Their parents slept in the living room . " 06:57 Chapter 4 288 Vouchers This wasn't what Maeve had expected . The novel said their parents had forced Rosalind to drop out of school to support her brothers , and Freda had said the same at the hospital . But if their parents really favored boys , would they have given Rosalind her own room ? No way . None of her stuff had been cleared out . The vanity was still cluttered with cheap , off - brand skincare products , but for a family this poor , even that was a luxury . Maeve took it all in quietly and drew her own conclusions . Then Calvin spoke . " It's not like the Crowley's place . The room's small and a bit beat - up . If anything feels off , just say it . We'll figure it out . " There are a lot of guys here , yeah , but no one will just walk into your room . When you shower , we'll be careful . Rosa used to shower from eight to nine , and we'd stay in our room and study . " The apartment was small , and the walls were thin , so bathroom noises could be heard from the living room . Maeve could already picture how much effort they'd put into respecting Rosalind's privacy . Calvin added , " All the boys take fifteen minutes to shower and clean up . Our parents usually shower right after work , so seven to eight is their time . That part's set . Is that cool with you ? " " Of course . If you don't mind , send me the old schedule . I'll stick to it , " she said calmly . He glanced at her and frowned . " You're really staying here ? " Deep down , he didn't think she would . Maeve caught his meaning and smiled . " Yeah , I belong here . I just hope you'll treat me like your sister from now on ." Chapter 5
