"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

Hazel peeked at Alex and was a little startled upon meeting his gaze. Swiftly, Hazel looked away and tucked a few strands of hair behind her ear. Her face fell a little hot and Hazel was sure it was because of the scorching sun.

After a while, Hazel peeked at Alex again and heaved a sigh when she found that he was not looking at her.

Now that she thought about it, these days, she would often catch Alex watching her.

Or perhaps, Alex had always been watching over her. It was just that, she was the one who was too slow to notice him.

The two of them were always together, but how was it possible that she had never noticed this? When did she become clueless towards the people around her? Was it possible that she has been too focused on her study that she had started to notice things?

Suddenly, Hazel was reminded of her last conversation with her Great-Grandpa. He had reminded her to raise her head and look around at what was in front of her.
