I rang the doorbell and the sound of a cheery jingle echoed inside the house.
"Serena, I'm here!" I announced. Soon enough, I watched as the door swung open and was greeted by Serena who was standing in front of me with her two daughters following closely behind her, tugging at her legs, demanding her attention every 2 seconds.
Her long honey blonde hair was in a mess and she looked absolutely exhausted. She ran her fingers through her hair and let out a breath but her lips twisted upwards into a slight smile when our eyes met. "Hey, Aurelia, you are here. Come on in," she said, gesturing for me to walk through the door.
"You look exhausted," I pointed out the moment I stepped in, my voice laced with a hint of concern as I looked at her with my brows furrowed together, forming a slight frown to rest between my brows.
