Chapter 390: Her Birthday

It seemed like she could still feel the warmth from the soft lips on her cheek.

Tanya touched her cheek and looked at the small, timid Mia in front of her. Suddenly, a feeling welled up in her—would it also feel like this if her child kissed her?

She spaced out and kept quiet for a while.

Seeing her freeze, Mia became frightened. Her eyes reddened and she hastily asked, “Are you mad, Ms. Turner?”

Tanya didn’t know whether she should be angry or not.

In fact, she even felt like her decision to teach Mia dancing was a mistake in itself!

The child she had with Joel was missing.

Yet, here she was, teaching Joel’s daughter how to dance. In fact, when she kissed her, she hadn’t even pushed her away. It was as if she had already accepted her.

How could she do that?!

 

Tanya was originally helping Mia with her leg stretches, but she suddenly stood up. She wanted to say coldly, ‘Don’t kiss me again in the future.’

But when she looked at Mia’s round eyes and small pointed face, she simply couldn’t bring herself to say it. In fact, the words at the tip of her tongue even changed. She said, “No, I’m not.”

Mia nodded. “Then, are you happy?”

Tanya wanted to say that she wasn’t, but when she saw the hopeful look in Mia’s eyes, she instead replied impulsively, “Yes.”

Her answer made Mia’s eyes instantly light up.

She said timidly, “My mother said that I can’t kiss her so casually, Ms. Turner. She would also become unhappy if I made physical contact with her, so I thought you were unhappy, too. I only kissed you because I heard you say that you wanted a kiss. Are you really not mad at me?”

Her mother didn’t allow her to touch her?

Tanya was dumbfounded.

She didn’t know how other mothers behaved, but if it were her daughter, she would never tire of giving her kisses. Besides, whenever she was out, she always saw a lot of children who behaved very intimately with their mothers.

Little did she expect a tiny little girl like Mia to be so pitiful?
