"Wait till she comes," Marie replied, refusing to spill the beans.
A few seconds later, series of quick rushing steps were heard. Instantly, Elena's eyes lit up. Soon, her daughter's face appeared in front of the camera.
"Mummy!" Mia cried out with a face full of smiles. She looked like she was excited about something.
"Hey, baby! How are you?" Elena asked. Seeing her daughter brought smiles to her face and caused happiness to radiate from within her.
This was the kind of moment that made her wish to be with her little girl, hug her, kiss her forehead and cheeks and then put her to sleep at night.
Elena felt like she was being denied something good. Something like, she was only allowed to see and not touch. That was not a healthy circumstance for her.
"Fine!" Mia replied.
With a smile that reached her eyes, Elena asked, "Mama said you had something to show me. What is it?"
