The next day, Eudora was woken up by a knock on the door.
As soon as she opened her eyes, she felt a soreness that she had not experienced in a long time.
Juju and Sugar Bun were knocking on the door, "Mom, it's time to get up!"
Eudora quickly got up to open the door, only to find that her shoulders were still exposed.
She had no idea where her clothes were.
Eudora felt exasperated
She glared at Amos and said, "You're sleeping in the guest room tonight!"
The corners of Amos's lips curled up. He reached out for her clothes and helped her put them on, "Alright, but you'll have to go with me!"
Eudora was stunned by his assertiveness.
"Hurry up and open the door!"
Amos helped her to tidy herself up. Seeing that she was fully clothed, he walked over and opened the door.
Juju and Sugar Bun flew into the room as they shouted, "Mom, are you sick? Why are you still sleeping?"
Eudora held her tongue.
What was she supposed to say?
Upon noticing Eudora's actions, Sugar Bun was on the verge of climbing onto the bed.
Amos came over and grabbed him, "Don't disturb your mother! I'll play with you downstairs."
Eudora recalled Juju's words as she asked, "You lied to me, didn't you?"
Juju said, "Mom, don't be so petty! Although I don't have a brutal training session to attend, there's somewhere you have to go with me!"
"Where?" Eudora's expression finally eased a little.
"This year's entrance ceremony. You and Dad should come together!"
Eudora was stunned for a second as she thought, "That's right. It's almost time for the holidays. Juju will be in second grade next year!"
Come to think of it, time really had flown by quickly! In the blink of an eye, Juju was already all grown up.
Eudora nodded, "Alright, I'll go!"
"Thank you, Mom!" Juju smiled charmingly. She stretched her head out and moved closer to Eudora's cheek, but was blocked by Eudora's outstretched hand.
""Even so, I'm still down in the dumps. You can't lie to me next time, okay?"
Juju sighed helplessly, "Yes, Mom!"
"That's more like it!"
Eudora kissed Juju's cheek and said with a smile, "Okay, let's go downstairs to have breakfast!"
After sending Juju off to school, Eudora talked to Amos about this matter.
"It feels like yesterday when we last attended an activity in Juju's school! In the blink of an eye, many years have passed! I feel like I'm getting old!"
Amos shook his head, "No, you're still as beautiful as before."
Eudora shot him a look of annoyance, "What a sweet talker! I've promised Juju that we're all going! You don't have any problems with that, right?"
Amos shook his head and said, "I'm alright with this! I'm the househusband now. My life should revolve around my three children!"
Eudora was stunned, "Three children? Don't we only have two?"
Amos stayed silent as his eyes stayed fixed on Eudora.
After speaking, Eudora finally realized that the third child he was talking about was actually herself.
It was the day of the entrance ceremony at Juju's school.
When Eudora arrived at the entrance, many parents had already arrived. When they were about to get off the car, Amos suddenly received a phone call.
