"Uncle, I thought you wanted me to get the other Bible for you". Leon replied.

"Leon, which other Bible are you talking about?.

"No matter their colour, they are all Bible, okay!.

"Was that why you wasted a ton of times in the house?.

Leon was there nodding his head and taking correction's, he was new in his uncle's place, so he was still learning his uncle way's.

"Anyway, thank you, but next time, bring anyone you see". Matteson concluded.
