Emyr looked at her shy and embarassed demeanor. His lips curved deeper.
In the restaurant, the table was filled with various food. The moment she saw them, she knew they were all
Emyr’s favorites. It seemed like the couple really doted on him very much.
Tad too had taken a seat at the table under Sylvia’s warm invitation.
He rarely sat at the stable as Emyr, so he appeared more reserved, stiff, and awkward.
Meanwhile, Charmaine, who was usually bold and reckless, was also behaving prim and proper like Tad.

anything you like. Don’t be shy.”
“Don’t worry about her. She is already an adult and is capable of feeding herself.”

Nelson.”

“Thank you, Aunty Sylvia.”
“Don’t mention it, Dear. Please, make yourself comfortable.”
“It’s been a long day for you, Aunty Sylvia. Have sfor yourself too!”

shape, resembling an origami flower.
The warm afternoon breeze stirred gently as the two, focused on folding paper flowers quietly, creating a scene
of tranquil harmony.
“Merrick, look,” Sylvia said to her husband softly. Merrick looked in the direction his wife was pointing.
Sylvia's face revealed a gratified smile. “Lilacs are my sister's favorite flower. Emyr used to fold it himself and
never let anyone help.”
“Yes. Emyr does seem different from a few months ago.”
