"Sure."
After that, Brittany hung up the phone.
Daniel, his cheeks full of excitement as he gnawed on his apple, asked, "Mom, are we having dinner with Dad?"
"Yes, your dad made a reservation."
A sparkle appeared in Daniel's eyes. "Mom, now that you and Dad are back together, when will you have a little sister for me?"
Because Granny Emily had once said to him that when his parents repair their relationship, a little sister might follow.
Brittany choked a little, "A sister?"
She hadn't planned on a second child just yet.
Daniel obediently nodded. "Yes, I like the idea of a sister. I promise to be good to her."
To prove his sincerity, Daniel patted his little chest. "I can share my toys with her and buy her tasty snacks."
He meant using the money from his piggy bank.
Brittany couldn't help but chuckle, "There's no plan for it just yet."
Daniel looked somewhat disappointed, wondering when he would have a little sister.
...
Upon arriving at the restaurant, Isaac was already there.
Daniel greeted him politely as he got out of the car.
It was the first time the family of three had dined out together, and Daniel could hardly contain his excitement.
Once seated in their private booth, Isaac ordered food and a freshly squeezed watermelon juice for Brittany and said, "The food here is really good; make sure you eat plenty."
Brittany had lost some weight due to her busy work life in recent years. Isaac intended to help her regain some health.
Brittany knew what he was up to. "Got it."
Before the food was served, the door to their private booth swung open.
