While attending his brother's funeral, Neil Mo noticed the little girl, sitting quietly alone with both hands hugging her knees tightly.

The little girl had only lost both her parents. But in a room was full of people, no one seemed to pay attention to her.

"Grandma, I don't want to live away from my daddy and mommy... I know that I won't get to see them again... What if I miss them?" her words were a bit incoherent as she forced back her sobs.

Seeing the little girl, he felt something tugged on his heart.

"Hazel," Neil spoke after a while. "If you don't want to live in the countryside with grandma, then would you like to live with me?"

A Lifetime With You

"Old friend, how are you feeling?"

Mike heaved a long sigh before he repeated the words that the doctor had told him earlier. "It seemed that I will be staying in the hospital for a few days."

"Your granddaughter's right." James patted at the bed. "Just stay here and recuperated well. You don't see Edith's face when you were in the operation room. I think, if something bad happens to you at this time, Edith would really lose it."

Mike listened to his friend's about how his granddaughter had acted when he was in the operation room and got worried. If something happened to his granddaughter because of him, how will he be able to face his daughter? He would be ashamed to meet his daughter in the afterlife.

"I know. I decided to let her accompany me for a few days and let her be assured." Mike said.

"Right, what did you tell Edith about our trip to the city this time?" James asked. "She… did not suspect anything right?"
