~Uncle, love me deeper~

Mr. Franklin said, "Where are you people going?" as he noticed them walking downstairs.

"I told them to come, honey. Let them go shopping,” Tati remarked. Franklin remained silent and stared at Ame.

"Okay uncle, see you," Ame responded with a smile.

"Honey," Mom said, taking my hand in hers and kissing me on the forehead.

"Please don't be sad. You'll be OK. You're about to begin a new journey. Why are you making such a gloomy face?” asked mom.

I lowered my head, not wanting to show my teary eyes. But, Mom, I don't want this new life.

"All right, honey," mom responded. We emerged from the house and were about to get into the car. We heard Liam's voice say, "Hey bro, what's up?"

"I never expected you to come here," Joe remarked.

"Why not? I have a girlfriend now,” Liam said.

"Then you aren't jealous?" Joe said, smirking.

"What for? Ivy will always be my love,” Liam said.
