My Dreamy Old Husband

“Mom wants to recuperate in Bayside City for a while, but the Yard Family wants to amend the family tree and shift the ancestral grave, so there are quite a number of things to be done. We thought we’d stay around and help out since Mom isn’t emotionally stable, so we might not be returning so soon,” Callum replied. He spoke in a respectful and meticulous manner, as if he was reporting to his supervisor; there wasn’t a hint of intimacy in his tone.

To the boys, Jordan was practically a stranger. Apart from the contribution of his sperm, he had never given them anything more. During the toughest periods of their lives when they were younger, Jordan would disappear and leave them with their mother.

Carmen’s grandmother, Elizabeth, had a voice that had left a mark on the last two generations of Cethosians, and Carmen’s father had an amazing voice himself; hence, it made sense that this young girl inherited the same talents. Her voice was like some sort of magnet that attracted everyone’s attention. Since God had blessed her with such wonderful talents, it’d be a shame if she didn’t

Carmen hopped and pranced around the room while singing. The splitting headache that had been bothering Anna the entire day miraculously disappeared; she felt like she finally found peace as all the anxiety and fear seemed to have left her body. Right then, Sophia knocked on the front door of the
