The Love that Never Really Dies

The clever Vivian had found out about it. When there was no one around, she sneakily asked Sasha, “Mommy, did you really have a headache?”

Sasha was a little awkward when she heard that question being posed.

Nevertheless, she admitted, “No, but I’m acting like I do to stay with you guys.”

Hearing that, Vivian’s eyes brightened up.

“I’ll go tell Ian and Matt about this. We will inform you when Daddy comes back.”

With that, she scampered out of the room to find her brothers.

For the entire day, Wendy noticed that the kids were acting weird.

When they were playing, Ian would go and take a peek at the door. As for Matteo, the boy would suddenly grab his tablet and secretively tap on it, acting as though he was on some sort of secret mission.

Vivian, on the other hand, was acting even funnier. The little girl had started tiptoeing in the house. There was even a time when she shushed Wendy when the latter called out to her.

“Ms. Dolivo, don’t talk, or Daddy might come back if he hears us.”

Wendy was left scratching her head. What does she mean? Doesn’t she want her Daddy to come back?

Nonetheless, she didn’t think much about it and soon went back to her chores.

In the afternoon, Sebastian came back as expected.
