She knew it. God wouldn't have her go through such a tough time these past two years for nothing.
In the room, Liam listened to the excited chatter of the family outside. A red mole near the corner of his right eye looked a bit evil under the light.
He smiled.
His fingers brushed against the pendant hidden under his thin sweater. It was made from his parents' melted wedding rings.
He knew this family would react this way when they found out he had saved a rich kid.
But their dream would only last till tonight.
Soon, they would face a nightmare.
He thought of Ivy, her smile so carefree.
He thought, I'll borrow your parents. I saved your life, so this is a fair trade.
The next morning, Rosalynn carefully examined Ivy's wound, making sure it wasn't infected. Only after confirming that, she let out a sigh of relief.
"Mom, I'm not in pain anymore, don't worry!" Ivy hugged Rosalynn's head and lightly patted her shoulder. "I'm really brave!"
Rosalynn laughed and allowed Ivy to hold her tightly. She gently embraced Ivy's small body and said, "Mom isn't as brave as you. I was terrified..."
"It's okay! It's okay!" Ivy reassured Rosalynn.
"You'll have to comfort Dad later too. He was even more scared than Mom," Rosalynn mentioned.
Ivy sighed helplessly.
