"Anne will stay at home and keep Oliver company. Oliver is a baby too, so she would be happy to play with him. Anyway, if I bring her out, she might cause trouble. So, I'll go by myself," After that, I got up to head upstairs.
Anne was coming downstairs. With her bare feet, she ran to me and said, "Mom, Uncle Aaron called me and asked for you!"
Speak of the devil! What a coincidence.
I picked up the phone. A voice asked, "You're back in Jarold City?"
I nodded, "Wow! You're quite well-informed!"
Aaron laughed and said, "Of course. Let's have dinner together tonight. I haven't seen you for a long time. I missed you!"
"Okay," I said, "I'm also planning to visit Yana and the baby, and also Mr. Reid."
Aaron did not reply straight away. After a moment's silence, he said, "I mean that we'll have dinner alone at night. Just two of us..."
I pursed my lips and was stunned for a moment, "Why?"
Before he responded, I asked instinctively, "Did
you have a fight with Yana?" "Can't we just have dinner alone?" he said, sounding a little irritable. It seemed that it might actually betrue.
I nodded and answered, "Sure, you can decide on the time and venue!"
He agreed and hung up.
Anne was hugging me. She hadn't changed out of her pajamas yet. I urged her to do it but she wanted me to help her instead. I wanted her to do it by herself as I didn't want to spoil her. But in response, she ran to Hendrix's side and sulked.
I pursed my lips and went back to my room, deciding to tidy up the place.
