Bam!
Tanya closed the door right after saying that.
Joel: "…"
Joel could faintly hear Pete ask, "Was it not Mommy at the door, God-mom? Who was it, then?"
"Oh, just an annoying fly," replied Tanya.
Joel: "…"
Half an hour later.
The perturbed and distracted Tanya glanced at the window.
The moment she did, she found herself stunned.
Joel was standing at the door, his tall and straight figure casting a long, drawn-out shadow on the ground.
The dazed Tanya felt as if she had gone back a few years in time. Back then, she would always see a figure like that standing outside every time she walked out of the classroom after class.
At that time, the sight of the man had made her excited and happy.
But the figure instead seemed somewhat solitary and lonely now, making her sad.
Tanya withdrew her gaze, lowered her head, and looked at the floor. Complicated emotions churned in the depths of her heart.
