A Brand New Life

"I'm what?!" Lianne repeated, her eyes wide open.

She was just thinking it and it was true?

Kay laughed, thinking her brother effectively played Cupid for her, albeit unknowingly.

"Kyle offered a position to your father here," Kay explained, "Your father took a couple of days to think about it and he just accepted the offer."

Lianne smiled widely, happy beyond belief. The thought of moving into an entirely new country and leaving behind everything she had known did not faze her at all. 

Country Tz was a nice place, and Mama was here.

That was all she needed, really. Nothing else mattered and one can adapt. It wasn't as if she had tons of friends back home anyway.

"When?" Lianne asked.

"Your dad needs a few days, maybe a week, to finalise things back home," Kay said, "While I have to get you, and your Dad, a place to stay."

"Does this mean we have to go back now?" Lianne asked, slightly disappointed.
