When There Is Nothing Left But Love

“Mommy, where are you now?” Larry had waited for fifteen minutes, yet his mother was still not home yet.

Vivian knew she was near the neighborhood when the familiar row of shops came into sight. “I’m almost home now.”

She soon arrived home and was changing into slippers in the doorway. It startled her when she suddenly heard Larry’s voice from behind, “Mommy.”

She spun around to see Larry looking at her, his gaze shining with awe.

The next moment, the little boy furrowed his brows and said, “Mommy, don’t forget about Daddy.”

With that, he turned and left for his bedroom.

Meanwhile, Vivian was amused by her son’s remark. Is he worried that I might find him a stepfather?

As she entered the washroom, she noticed Larry had helped squeeze toothpaste on her toothbrush and had the towel prepared for her. At that instant, she felt warmth in her heart.

With a heartfelt smile, she murmured, “Little pumpkin, you’re starting to look like your father.”
