It was late at night and the three children in Eliana’s house were tired after playing for a long while and had fallen asleep. But Eliana was still up.

Nana hadn’t return home yet, which made Eliana so worried that she found it hard to sleep.

Finally, when it was eleven o’clock, there was a slight rattle at the door and someone came in.

Eliana quickly walked over to turn on the living room light and a sneaky figure appeared.

It was Nana who had returned.

“Eliana, you’re still awake?”

Nana, hunched over, had intended to enter quietly but was caught in the act by Eliana.

With a straight face, Eliana was just about to interrogate Nana when she suddenly noticed that Nana’s eyes seemed swollen.

She couldn’t care less about what she was going to ask and cupped Nana’s face, asking urgently, “Nana, why are your eyes swollen? Did you cry? Did someone bully you?”

At that point, Nana knew she couldn’t hide it from Eliana.

She sighed, pondered for a moment, choosing to tell the truth.
