"Hayden, I want to apologize to you." Avery looked at Hayden’s groggy appearance and said, "I have to return to Aryadelle because of some issues."
"Oh, what happened?" Hayden rubbed his eyes. There was a time difference between Bridgedale and Aryadelle. It was six in the morning at Bridgedale at that moment.
"Nothing too huge, don’t worry. Once I'm ready, I'll head to Bridgedale to look for you. Before I go over, I'll let you know," Avery said.
"Hmm." "Do you want to see Robert and Layla?" Avery said and panned the camera at Robert and Layla eating the banana. Layla immediately aimed the remaining banana she had in her hand at the camera, "Hayden, a banana for you!"
Hayden replied, "How childish."
"Hayden, Robert knows how to talk already! He knows how to call Daddy, Mommy, and Layla, but he doesn't know how to call you yet, Hayden!" Layla deliberately tried to provoke him. "Will you be jealous?"
"Lame."
"Hayden, do you miss me! If you say that you miss me, I'll head to Bridgedale to look for you with Mommy!" Layla took the phone over from Avery and said, "Tell me you miss me!"
Hayden hung up.
"Layla, don’t be sad. Hayden surely misses you. He just hasn't slept well." Avery took her phone back. "It's only about six in the morning over there."
"Then, why did you call him so early in the morning?"
"Because I can’t wait to apologize to him."
"Oh, alright. Mommy! Let's go eat!"
"Hmm."
After dinner, Avery brought the children for a stroll around the neighborhood.
Elliot remained at home because of the injuries on his face.
Layla was pushing the tram along, walking quickly. Avery followed behind. She warned, "Layla, don't walk too fast. Be careful, you might bump into someone."
