Nyla couldn't help but say, "Valarie, stop bullying Brandon all the time." Brandon turned to her and sighed tically. "Aunt Nyla, since you mentioned it, I have to say something. You have no idea what I've been through these past six months, I— Ouch!" Before he could finish, Valarie pinched his waist. "What was that? Tell me, Brandon. Have you been unhappy these past six months?" "N-No... I've been very happy..." Brandon winced.
"Have I bullied you then?" Valarie pressed.
"No..." Brandon murmured.
Valarie huffed. "If not, then keep your mouth shut, or Nyla will really think I mistreat you." Brandon gave her a pitiful look, lowering his head like a scolded puppy.
Before they married, Valarie had been gentle and beautiful in his eyes. But after marriage, he realized how wrong he had been.

If he stayed out drinking and chlate, he'd have to choose between sleeping on the couch or outside.

Nyla was about to speak when Lydia approached. "Mrs. Sumner, Mr. Sumner asked for you. Ms. Mia's first birthday grab ceremony is about to begin." "Alright, I'll be right there," Nyla replied.
She turned to Valarie and Brandon. "Let's go." A large round table had been set up in the center of the living room.
Mia, dressed in a pink princess dress and matching socks, sat in the middle of the table. She curiously looked at the people around her, her big eyes filled with wonder.
Surrounding her were objects for the grab ceremony. In addition to those Nyla and Damon had prepared, there was also a toy car, a small hammer, a stethoscope, a calculator, and more.
Everyone watched her intently, eager to see what she would pick.

Valarie's eyes lit up with excitement as she grabbed Brandon's arm. "See! I told you she'd pick my golden plate!" Brandon nodded. "Yeah, you're right. I guess size does make a difference..." As they spoke, Mia reached the golden plate, and Valarie held her breath. She had to pick the golden plate! Under everyone's eager gaze, Mia slowly reached out her little hand. Instead of grabbing the plate, she picked up the calculator beside it.
Valarie pouted.
She reassured herself that it was fine. Mia had also picked up the astronaut figurine earlier but put it down. She'd surely realize soon that the golden plate was the better choice.
But once Mia got hold of the calculator, she clutched it tightly and refused to let go.

After the ceremony, everyone gathered for a group photo.

Everyone was smiling, and at that moment, happiness was frozen in time.
