Cassey opened her eyes when the door closed. Her eyes were filled with swirling emotions. She felt wounded by their actions. Like a needle that was stabbed hard and couldn't be removed no matter what she did.
She waited for a few minutes and then washed her face and walked out.
She went straight to the place where they were playing and stood in front of him. She realized that he did not like her presence with the way he was glowering at her.
"She must be hungry!" Cassey spoke softly, initiating a conversation when Tyrone scoffed, "I have asked the maid to bring cookies."
The word did the trick. The little girl let go of the arms of her father and asked her mother to carry her.
Tyrone followed with clenched jaws as he saw Penny enjoying the cookies and milk the maid was feeding her.
"She had settled well here." Cassey pointed in a soft voice much to Tyrone's surprise. He found himself nodding back instantly.
