In the morning, Anna got Kiara ready in the spare room that was given to them. She got herself freshened up for the day and made Kiara ready to drop her at her school.

But early in the morning, Kiara happily asked, “Mom, can I go to Alex’s uncle and say good morning to him?” Anna, who was wearing her heels, stopped in the middle.

“Umm…We are going down only, Kiara. anyways, you will meet everyone at the breakfast table now so greet everyone there only.” Kiara nodded her head but Anna was surprised. How much have Alex and Kiara Interacted with each other?

‘They are close as if they do know each other for so long already now.’ Anna was already stunned by their closeness but deep down, she knew that the more they were getting to each other, the earlier she would have to tell Kiara the truth about Alex being her father.

They both made their way down to the breakfast table, where everyone was seated with a wide smile on their faces. The butler had already prepared breakfast for them, and it was a sight to see that there were her favorite dishes on the table.

“Hello everyone.” Anna greeted while Kiara, who passed everyone with a wide smile. It was evident that the little girl is enjoying her time well here, unlike her mother who was getting it difficult to adjust.

After all, in the past, she has lived with Steve as well. She used to have breakfast with them when she was young but that was as the fiance of their son, Chris.

“Anna, why don’t you stay for one more day already?” Klara said to ease the tension around but Anna replied back with an apologetic tone, “I’m sorry. I have to go out with mom today. She would be highly disappointed..”

“I understand that. Pass my hello to Marrie as well. I would love to catch up with her anytime soon.”

Klara was as sweet as ever. She never made her feel awkward in any manner and this welcomed her heart’s door towards her. Not only her but also Scott remained happy with her, making her laugh in the middle intervals.

‘Everyone is just like before…nothing changed except me and Alex..’ she can easily find this out when everyone on the table was laughing and enjoying the early morning.

In the middle, when Kiara finished her breakfast, she looked at her mother and blinked her eyes, she asked, “Mommy, can uncle Alex drop me off at the school today? Please?”

Hearing this request, Anna looked up at Alex to see his reaction, and always, he smiled, “Obviously if my princess is asking me something then I will fulfill it.”

“Yes!! Mommy, you can directly go back to grandmother now. she must be waiting for you now. I will go to school with my uncle..” As expected the both father and daughter duo were so happy that Anna didn’t stop them.

When Anna got out of Alex’s house, she felt that Alex wished to say something to her. His face wasn’t relaxed as before and there was still a frown on his forehead. She had no idea why, but it was making her worry a lot.

Walking to him, with Kiara’s bag in her hand, she mumbled, “A..A..Lexx..”

“Hmm?” he stopped and waited for her to say something but Anna didn’t. An unknown feeling was spreading all over her heart, something big was surely going to happen anytime soon.

Unconsciously, she shook her head and he also didn’t ask her anything further. Closing the door, she watches how his car drove away. ‘I must be overthinking. What could he have to say to me?’

But was she really overthinking? Anna convinced herself with a lie but that feeling kept on rising without any doubt. In the end, without thinking about anything else, she made her way to her mother as well.

Coming to the mall, Anna made her way to the first floor and found her mother waiting there for her. Giving her a kiss on her cheek, Anna greeted her with a wide smile.

“Alright. What happened last night? You look tense.. anna..” at this point, Anna really wondered how sharp her mother’s gaze is? How can she tell that she didn’t have a good sleep?

“Well.. Kiara wished to stay with Alex and Obviously I was no one to deny her that. So, we stayed overnight at their place.. and she had a lot of fun.”

“Kiara must be happy but what about you my daughter? You don’t look happy. I was expecting a glow instead of sadness in your eyes.”

As a mother, Marrie knew what makes Anna happy and sad. Especially when things come on Alex, who was once her source of happiness and the reason she was happy in her life.

Someone who made her come back to her life and made her realize how to enjoy living instead of just spending it and letting it pass. Anna took a deep breath and shook her head.

“Nothing like that mother.. you know we have our differences..” which she wishes to remove just because it is getting difficult for her now. “Differences are removed when you are ready. I know these differences won’t be finished overnight but try, Anna. He must be making efforts, you should do the same.”

Anna gave her mother a look. It wasn’t as easy as they make it sound to her. “I know.. but mother.. there is a different kind of heaviness..”

Both the mother and daughter duo walked inside one of the famous brand shops and her words were left unheard by Marrie.

Looking at her mother’s back, Anna didn’t even feel putting this topic any further. She was better to convince herself that everything was fine and nothing bad was coming on their way.

Marrie started looking at the beautiful dresses that came into her view and Anna happily accompanied her. But in the middle, looking outside the door, Marrie’s gaze landed on the certain person who saw was least expecting to see today.

“Jenra…what is she…doing here…”
