Two in the Morning

Hazel went back to the residence and found that her Auntie Edith was in the garden, looking after some flowers in the garden. She walked over and looked at the flowers. 

"You're back," Edith said. She turned around and smiled. "Have you eaten?"

"Un." Hazel nodded. "We dropped by the old house and the auntie made something for us to eat." She looked around and noticed that the house was a little quiet. "Where are the others?"

"Hayden and Hayley are working on their homework," Edith said. "Your uncle is still at the office."

"He's been very busy recently," Hazel pointed out.

"He wanted to settle a few important works before he can take a long break." Edith rested her hand on her tummy. "He said he wanted to accompany me before the twins came out."

"He's worried."

"Hmm… things will get busy again after the twins came out. There is a lot of preparation to do as well." Edith heaved a sigh.
