"Come home soon. We will miss you," Persephone said, side hugging Santiago.
Santiago dropped a kiss on her head and another on Eleanora's cheek who was demanding that he pick her in his arms. "Will miss my girls more."
For some work related purpose, Santiago had to leave for Asia. Although he didn't feel like leaving his girls home all alone, he still had to attend the business conference. Life was getting too busier for him and he didn't even have the time to breathe.
Persephone and Eleanora waved him goodbye, standing at the door. He had a flight to catch an hour later. So, he left early.
"Baby, we are all alone in this big house!" Persephone said, staring at the kid in her arms.
Eleanora, who was too young to understand anything, laughed when she saw her mommy talking to her. She too was replying in her babyish language making her mom smile.
