"Anything is fine," Jacqueline said. She just wanted to hear Fred play the piano.Fred began with a familiar tune: "Für Elise", a piece that Jacqueline loved.Jacqueline listened quietly. Despite the distance, and although she was hearing it through the phone, she was still immersed in the sound of the piano. This was Fred’s piano.When the piece ended, Jacqueline suddenly asked, "Fred, do you think there will come a day when I also can't hear you play the piano anymore?"Fred was taken aback. "Why do you ask that?""I'm just afraid that one day, you might disappear, like Morris did," she said. Then, realizing how it sounded, she quickly added, "I... I'm not saying you'll go missing. I... I just..."After a brief pause, she continued, "I'm scared that unexpected things might happen. What if we argue? What if you ignore me? What if...""Those things won't happen!" Fred interrupted."But—""Jackie, I'm not Morris," he said firmly. "I won't get into a fight with you. If anythin

"It’s nothing serious. She should be fine in a few days," Serenity reassured them.They were relieved to hear that."Oh, by the way, I finally get to see the baby with her eyes open! Her eyes really do look like Lucas'," Lisa remarked.The baby had big, beautiful eyes. She would break a lot of hearts when she grew up.When Beatrice finally opened her eyes and Coco saw how much her eyes resembled Lucas', she was actually really happy.It would be a shame if Lucas' beautiful eyes did not get passed down to their daughter.Lucas, however, was not as happy. "If only her eyes were more like yours; that would be perfect. She would look exactly like you," Lucas said, a hint of regret in his tone.Coco brushed aside his regret.Currently, all the children were gathered around the baby, looking at her. Among them, Caden seemed the least interested. He looked at the baby briefly before shifting his attention back to Cynthia. He had been holding Cynthia's hand the whole time, never lett

Morgan looked at Cynthia flatly and said, "This isn't anything difficult." To him, it was something really simple; only idiots would struggle with it."But... it’s the first time I’ve seen a boy braid someone’s hair," Cynthia admitted. There were certainly no boys like him around her."That’s because you haven’t met enough people," Morgan retorted.Cynthia was left speechless.Now that Renee’s hair was done, she rushed off to play with Jacqueline. Micah approached Morgan and asked him, "Don't you find it a hassle to braid a girl’s hair?""No," Morgan said, his tone toward Micah notably different. They had once gotten into a debate over a computer virus problem. Neither could convince the other, so they ended up playing a game of attack-and-defense with computer viruses to prove their point. In the end, there was no clear winner, but Morgan felt he had the advantage, being two years older than Micah. If they were the same age, he might have lost.After that incident, they had gr

He was different. He grew up in the darkness. She was the one who had gradually brought light into his world. Yet, certain things were so deeply rooted that they could not be removed no matter what.He did not want to show his dark side in front of her, so he tried his best to become the person she expected."But..." Serenity hesitated, wanting to say more, but Jackson embraced her. "Stop worrying. Caden is only ten. He's only attached to Cynthia for now. We don't even know if he'll actually fall in love with her in the future or how Cynthia will react, so it’s pointless to speculate. Maybe things won't unfold the way we expect. For now, we just have to wait and see."If he really had to take action in the future, then he would.Serenity could only let the matter rest for now.After all, this was not a problem that could be resolved quickly.Meanwhile, in the Jenkins household, Cynthia was lying in bed, preparing to sleep when she heard two soft knocks on her door. She hesita

No one had pursued Coco. It was always her who made the move first."Something on your mind?" a low voice asked suddenly, bringing Coco back to her senses. Coco looked back to see Lucas beside her, his hair still slightly wet."Let me dry your hair," Coco offered, taking the towel from his hand.Coco began drying Lucas' hair with the towel, and Lucas naturally bent forward slightly, making it easier for her to reach his head."Has the baby eaten?" Lucas asked."Yes, she has. She'll probably go to sleep in a few minutes," Coco said. It was normal for newborns to be always sleeping, waking only long enough to eat before falling back asleep. "When she sleeps, you should go to bed early too," Lucas urged. "You'll probably have to wake up in the middle of the night again.""Yeah," Coco answered."So, what was on your mind?" Lucas asked again, back to the previous topic. "You seemed lost in thought.""Just thinking about the boys that'll be after our daughter in the future," Coc
