In Chapter 151 of The Bond Between Us novel, the narrative takes a riveting turn, plunging readers deeper into the intricacies of Anastasia and Herman's evolving relationship. As the couple grapples with the shocking revelation of their shared past, the town of Riverdale becomes a backdrop for both confrontations and moments of quiet introspection.
Chapter 151 opens with Anastasia attempting to piece together the fragments of her forgotten memories, haunted by the striking resemblance of their daughter to a past she never knew she had. The quaint charm of Riverdale transforms into a landscape of uncertainty as Herman, determined to unearth the truth, confronts Anastasia with questions that demand answers.
Salma simply didn't want to butt into Anastasia and Herman's newlywed life.
Anastasia and Herman had just tied the knot, and they were not even a few months in.
Understanding Salma's thoughts, Anastasia said, "Mom, you see how busy Herman and I are, nobody's gonna be around to watch over Pattie. With her going to and from school, she needs someone to drop her off and pick her up. We just won't have the time. Mom, I have to lean on you."
Hearing this, Salma glanced at Pattie and asked Anastasia, "So you're saying, Pattie is gonna be living with us?"
Anastasia and Herman were still young; they would eventually have kids of their own. Taking care of someone else's kid now would definitely put the pressure on them.
Anastasia didn’t delve into the topic further with Pattie present. She passed her some food and said, "Eat up, Pattie."
Pattie was a sensitive kid, she'd picked up on Salma's words and realized she was probably a burden. She didn't say anything, and just quietly ate her meal. After finishing her meal, she took it upon herself to clear the table and do the dishes, showing a level of maturity beyond her years.
Anastasia stopped her. "Pattie, you go and watch some TV in the living room, leave this to me."
Pattie put down the dishes and obediently went to watch TV in the living room.
Salma saw all of this. Holding the leftover dishes, she quietly asked, "Ana, what are you planning to do about the kid?"
"Herman and I have talked it over, if Pattie's family agrees, we'll adopt her," Anastasia answered with a smile. "Herman doesn't have any parents, and we're both working, so we might need your help taking her to and from school."
"That's not a problem, but the issue is, she's someone else's kid. It's one thing to have her over for a day or two, but if you really want to raise her, have you considered the costs?" Salma advised her, "You and Herman are going to want your own kids someday, have you calculated those costs? This isn't like keeping a pet where you just provide food. This is a child who needs education. Besides, doesn't she have parents? I don't agree with you adopting her."
Every concern Salma had was grounded in reality and was meant for Anastasia's best interest.
