"Your Daddy is still sleeping. It's only six-something in the morning right here," Avery softly replied to Layla before greeting the others. "Wesley, Shea, Kiara, and Robert. I miss all of you! I want to go back to see you all." "Avery, are you all alright?" Wesley asked, concerned.
"Hmm. He has returned tofor an entire day," Avery's gaze was gentle. Her tone was light too. "Don't worry about him. Especially Shea..." "Mommy, I was also very worried for Daddy!" Layla grumbled a little.
"I know you were worried for Daddy, but your Aunt Shea has lost a lot of weight because of your daddy's incident. I feel terrible for her," Avery explained to Layla," Of course, no matter what happened to your daddy, I hope that this won't affect your learning and your life." "It doesn't affect me. I have been studying well every day. Mommy, go wake Daddy up! All of us want to see him. If you don't want to wake him up, let us see him. I'm sure that's okay, right?" Layla tried to bargain with Avery.

"Mommy, where is Daddy? Didn't you say that you were going to let us see Daddy?" Layla said worryingly when she did not see Elliot.
