"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

As Hazel and Edith were still chatting in the room, the door swung open and there were the sounds of footsteps coming in.

"Sister!" Hailey called the moment she saw Hazel in the room. The girl hasten her footsteps and hugged Hazel tightly. Then, she raised her head and looked at Hazel apologetically. "Sorry, I made you worry."

Hazel patted at the girl's hair. "It's fine. I'm glad you called me." A smile curled on her lips. "Did you just came from the baby's room?"

Hailey's expression brightened. "Un. Un. Sister, the babies are just too cute and small. Let's go and watch them later."

A chuckle escaped her. "You're a big sister now. Later, you have to help your mom to look after the twins alright?

Hailey nodded happily before she pulled away.

When Hazel looked up again, her uncle was staring at her with a concerned look in his gaze.
