Choose between Abigail and Phantomflake

Day Eighty-Two…

"Mommy.. you and Dad are leaving?" Ethan asked her in confusion. 

"Where are you going, Mama?" Mia also asked her. 

The two young ones were clueless about what was happening in Country M. Ethan was watching over Mia when Nathan and Jane approached them, telling them they had to leave them.

Nathan gently patted Ethan's head while Jane caressed Mia's cheeks.

 "I have something to deal with. Once I'm done… I'll immediately return here to fetch both of you." Jane reassured the two children. She decided to hide from them what happened to Abigail. She didn't want them to worry, especially Ethan.

"Okay, Mommy. Do what you have to do. We will wait for you here. In the meantime, I will be the one to take care of Mia." Ethan sounded like a dependable adult.

Jane smiled when she heard that. She pulled Ethan into a warm hug. She truly loved this boy.
