NovelEnglishHis kiss landed softly on her lips, and even after countless kisses before, it still made her heart skip a beat.
"Everett, have | ever told you | love you?"
"I'd be greedy to hear that every day."
Dorothy giggled, tiptoeing to kiss him back, "Alright, from now on, every morning when | open my eyes, I'll tell you."
"l love you, Everett."
"And | love you more, Dorothy."
"Well, | love you even more than more!" Her sly smile turned her eyes into crescents, "More and more and mo—Mmph!"
Everett dipped his head, sealing the playful banter with another kiss.
"Okay, let that make you lovejust a bit more."
Outside.
On a big day like moving, Jeffrey and Karen naturally couldn't miss out.

"Dorothy must be swamped today, | should lend a hand."
As Karen made to head inside, Jeffrey pulled her back.
"Let the lovebirds have their moment!"
"Moving day, and you think they're busy cuddling? You've got quite the imagination!"
Jeffrey smirked, nodding towards the continuously closed master bedroom door of Bay Residence, "Haven't you noticed they've
been in there for almost an hour? Surely they're not...folding clothes?"
"..." Karen paused, suddenly realizing.
That did seem to be the case!
"Let's just stay out here and look after the kids."
"Sounds good."
Karen glanced over to where Abigail was leading Felicity by the hand, chasing after Langston in a gof tag.
Their laughter filled the air.
"Bro, don't run so fast! This is tag, not a sprint for your life!"
"Langston, wait...wait up for me!" Felicity's speech was still simple, but earnest.
"You guys just have short legs!"
Langston paused to check his phone after putting sdistance between them and the girls.
It was his strategy all along; he wanted to juggle playing with his sisters and checking his phone.
As they caught up, Langston was about to dash off again when Abigail called for a truce, panting, "No more, no more, you win,
okay? I'm exhausted!"
Felicity seized the opportunity to dash forward and grab Langston's leg, "Brother, got you!"
"Ah, that's cheating!"
But Felicity didn't care; she had caught her beloved brother Langston!

Despite hisplaints, he bent down and scooped Felicity into his arms.
Her chubby cheeks made her look young, but she was no lightweight!
Felicity blinked her big eyes, giggling, "Want Langston to carry!"
"Alright, alright, | got you."
He adjusted his hold a few times, managing to bring her back to where Mr. Turner stood!
If he had known, he wouldn't have run so far; was this what they called shooting oneself in the foot?
Jeffrey reached out naturally to take his daughter, but Felicity pouted, waving him off, "No daddy, want Langston!"
Langston let out a sigh, "Then, I'll hold her a bit longer, Mr. Turner."
Jeffrey covered his heart, feigning injury, "They say daughters eventually leave, but it seems too soon!"
Karen chuckled, patting his shoulder with a teasing tone, "Just a friendly reminder, you've got two daughters~"
The laughter continued, echoing their shared joy.
