Lisa walked into the kitchen a few minutes later and found her aunt crying softly.
"Aunt, are you okay?" She ran toward her. It was the first time she had seen her aunt cry. Growing up with her, she felt that her aunt was someone extremely strong who rarely cried so seeing her that day, made her a bit troubled.
"I'm fine, I'm trying to let go of my past feelings don't worry about me, why are you here?" She forced a smile.
"I came to help you and check on you," Lisa said. Aunt Karen was the kind of person who wanted to be strong and always be there for her so seeing her hide her pain made her heart sting.

"Aunt, you're back," Lisa said excitedly as she ran toward her.
"Silly, girl why are you still running around when you are in this state? You will deliver in a week, won't you?" She scolded her as usual.
"Aunt, I missed you,"
"Silly girl," she said as she ruffled her hair like a little girl.
