“Adrian, why haven’t Mommy and Nana come to pick us up yet?”

Aileen sat on a small bench, looking bored. She propped her chin in the palms of her hands, and her legs dangled in the air.

“I don’t know either.”

Adrian sat next to her and imitated what she was doing.

The two kids were slightly melancholy. The other parents who came to the kindergarten to pick up their children couldn’t help admiring how lovely they were.

It was already getting dark, but Eliana and Nana hadn’t come yet, so Silas suggested, “We can’t wait here forever. How about I ask my driver to send you home first?”

Aileen shook her head. “No, I want to wait for Mommy and Nana.” Then she turned to Adrian and asked, “Adrian, do you think Mommy is still working?”

Adrian thought of Eliana’s boss, who often picked on her. He had a strong feeling that her boss let her work overtime again.

“Shall we call Nana and ask?”

The two kids picked up their smartwatch and called Nana.

Nana’s phone immediately rang. But after a long time, still, no one answered.

“What shall we do now?” Aileen asked, looking distressed.

“Since no one is coming to pick you up, let me take you home,” Silas offered again.
