The news about Milo's and Lily's waking up had spread like wildfire in the company. Mia, who had promised herself to desist from gossiping after Saddam's incident had been committed to her promise. After she apologized to Laila, they had started exchanging greetings in the office. She hoped that one day, Laila will forgive her completely.
She had decided to stop being bitter and instead of getting jealous over somebody else's happiness, she should embrace her own happiness. She had a lot to be thankful for, yet she had overlooked them all. What if she had been miserable after she ran away from the orphanage?

That should have made her hopeful that more good things are coming.
