As Sarah's enthusiasm settled, curiosity got the better of her, and she turned to her dad with a question. "Dad, I've never been on a tour before. Why is that?" she asked, genuinely intrigued. Growing up, Sarah had lived a secluded life, restricted to their home and school, with no friends or opportunities to explore the world beyond.
Her dad hesitated, searching for the right words to explain without revealing the true reason. "Well, it's not that we couldn't go on tours, sweetheart. I just wanted to save money for something special for my little baby girl," he said, walking towards her on the bed and gently pinching her cheeks.
Sarah's eyes widened with curiosity, sensing that her dad was hiding something. "Something special? What is it, Dad?" she pressed, eager to uncover the mystery behind his words.
