Briar didn't urge the kids to respond but continued to pat Tiana. After all, she couldn't have the kids crying when they arrived at her school. That would earn her some unfavorable glares from the teachers.
The kids didn't say anything even after a while and neither did Briar.
They soon arrived at Tiana's school and she wiped the little girl's face with a smile on her face.
"I am sorry for making you cry. Will my dear forgive me?" she asked in a soft tone, looking at the other affectionately.
Tiana shyly nodded, as she was putty in her second mother's arms, letting her do whatever she wanted.
She was the one in the wrong. Just because she was playful didn't mean that she didn't think well.
She might not be as clever as her eldest siblings, but that didn't make her less intelligent. From all the talk, she understood some clues and among them; she was in the wrong.
