    As | looked at him, | felt a little mncholic. Then, | held his waist and snuggled in his embrace. In a soft voice, | implored,


    “Hendrix, stay with me for a while.”


    As his annoyance dissipated, he gazed at me with a gentle look. He frowned and asked, "What''s wrong?"


    I let out a sigh as | felt severe pain in my head. "Nothing, just stay with me for a while.”


    | left Hovell for Jarold City, in hopes that things would pan out positively. But somehow, | had let both Irvin and Josiah down.


    Having raised Anne for four years, | had naturally regarded her as my own child. The memory of my own child''s death had


    started to peter out ever since she came into my life. But in the days following my return to Jarold City, almost everyone kept


    reminding me that | had a painful past with Hendrix and that | should move past it.


    He looked at me like he understood how | felt. Mirroring my silence and reticence, he held me firmly in his arms.


    With time, our courage had been emptied out by memories as we marched closer and closer to the final days of our life.


    Josiah frequently met with Aely. Each time they met, their bond grew stronger.


    | was worried she would eventually get closer to him.


    November in Jarold City saw its streets grow colder. One weekend, Anne was ying with the dog in the courtyard after Josiah


    took his leave after visiting her.


    | sat by her side and watched as she yed with the dog. There was an unfathomable feeling in my heart as | looked at her.


    Sensing that | had been sitting for quite a while, she turned around and looked at me, her eyes twinkled with excitement. "Mom,


    come y with Snowball, okay?"


    My eyes felt heavy. | shook my head and replied, "You y with him, I''ll watch."


    Looking at my reaction, she resisted the urge to continue ying. Instead, she stood up and leaned her small body on me. She


    ced her head on my shoulder and asked, "Mommy, are you not feeling well?"


    | shook my head and gave her a hug which greatly soothed my nerves. "Nah, I''m just a little tired," | replied.


    She nodded. As she let out a little sigh, she said, "You seem tiredtely. Is it because you''ll be sitting for an exam?"


    I smiled gently. "Sort of!"


    Anne seemed to be cooking up a thought. After a pause, she looked at me and said, "Alright Mommy, give me a second."


    Then, she dashed into the vi. | stayed where | was and watched as Snowball rolled around thewn. At that moment, | felt


    heavy- hearted. If Monique and my child were still alive, we would be enjoying each other''spany now as we watched our


    kids with one another.


    As | thought about this, | was overwhelmed by a surge of negative emotions.

    She did not quite register what had just happened. Secondster, she burst into tears, likely because she was terrified.


    | ran towards her and held her in my arms as Hendrix turned the stove off.


    He checked to make sure that everything was safe. Then, he walked towards me and asked, "Why was she in the kitchen?"
