Punishing each other for the tspent together is both torture and relief. You wanted to punish him, didn't you?" Lauren looked at Rose in astonishment, her eyes filled with hopeful light.
"If he has hurt you, this grudge can only be settled when you're with him. Silly girl. Try and understand what I'm saying." Rose poked Lauren's head and gestured to us. "Let's go. We'll chat while we eat. The little girl must be starving after playing at the kindergarten. Dinner is ready." Sure enough, Ava devoured her dinner. I felt as if I had been neglecting my daughter too much lately.
Watching her enjoy her meal, I asked, "Was the lunch at the kindergarten not yummy?" She looked atwith big, twinkling eyes and said in a cute voice, "Of course, our home-cooked dinner is much better, so I ate very little for lunch." Jenny quickly added, "She ate a lot of yummy food too!" Everyone burst into laughter.

Like a little hamster, she turned, still chewing on her food. "My favorite is chicken tenders. It smells so good. I can eat a lot of it." Jenny chimed in, "And mini quiches!"

Ava asked me, "Mommy, when will Grandmae back? They'reing back, right?" "Of course," I said confidently. "They went to sell the house in their hometown, so it might take a little longer. But they will definitelye back. Just be patient and wait." "Does that mean we can't go back to the small town again?" Ava's question suddenly madefeel a hint of nostalgia. Pondering, I said, "It's not that we can't go back. We can visit it, but we can't stay there for a long time." "Then, we won't have our hthere anymore, right? But Jenny hasn't been there yet. She said she had never seen snow." Ava's words madesuddenly feel a touch of homesickness.

It seemed that needed to call my parents later to inquire. If things didn't go smoothly, I would entrust the Phillips family to handle it. There was no need for them to wait there until the house was sold beforeing back. After dinner, I took the children to play in the yard.
Lauren continued chatting with Rose, and didn't interrupt them. thought Rose might advise her, and perhaps she would listen. After all, that old lady's perspective on things was quite different. I knew deep down that Lauren still had a lingering affection for Oliver. It was just that she couldn't get past that hurdle herself, and this hurdle could only be crossed by her and no one else.
