"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

It was the weekend and in the morning, Hazel walked down the stairs in her pink cotton dress and a gray bunny sling bag. Seeing that both her uncle and auntie has not come down yet, Hazel walked into the pantry and pulled a drawer. She reached her hand inside and grabbed a handful of candies.

Once she saw that her bag was filled with her supplies, Hazel shut the drawer carefully and went into the living room to watch her cartoons.

Meanwhile, in the master bedroom, Neil stood up straight as he watched Edith tying up his tie for him.

"There's going to be a lot of people at the banquet. Just stay closer with me, alright?" Neil reminded her again.

Edith lifted her gaze to meet his. "Darling, are you afraid that I will get lost?"
