"Where's everyone, aunt Lizzy?" Little Hera asked as soon as Liezel opened the door-lock and they stepped into their small flat of one bedroom, one bathroom, a tiny kitchen, and a small living hall. It was a rented apartment, and they were living there for the past six months.
"Uncle Tony and Ben went out to fetch your birthday gift, Hera," Liezel answered, setting the shopping bag on the kitchen counter. She bought the ingredients to bake a birthday cake for Hera after they visited the Church. "Where's aunt Jenny and Danny?" Hera questioned her again. Liezel rolled her eyes before smiling sweetly at Hera.
She turned to face little Hera before she could ask her next question. "You're one bundle of questions, sweet Hera," she cooed, pinching Hera's chubby cheeks. "Aunt Jenny and Danny have a surprise for you, but you've to wait to know what the surprise is going to be," she said, kissing her cheeks and walked out of the small kitchen.
