In the living room, Wanda was chatting with Keilani.
Seeing Tyrone and Jennie, Wanda beamed and said, “Tyrone, Jennie, cin. This is Keilani. Keilani, meet my
grandson Tyrone. He's looking after Jennie these days.”
Tyrone’s expression turned stern. He glanced at Keilani and asked bluntly, “Why are you here?”
Keilani, sensing his hostility, snapped back, “That's none of your concern.”

Tyrone could tell from Karen's words that Wanda had agreed to let Keilani have lunch here before they returned.
Keilani claimed to be here for Wanda and Jennie. Now that Jennie was around, Tyrone found it hard to ask Keilani

“Up... Upstairs?” Keilani repeated, surprised.
Wanda glanced at Tyrone, puzzled.
