We headed to my parents' house because my kids were there. Zairon told me that they cried nonstop, especially Calia because she understood why our situation was the way it was. I smiled at the thought that my daughter was safe and that I didn't need to worry anymore.
When I went inside, they immediately greeted me. The twins were also crying and almost choking from all the tears. They asked me where I went, but I told Zairon not to tell them, especially since it was his sibling who took me. They might get the wrong idea. They don't know anything.
I was carrying Cole while sitting on the couch. Zairon sat beside me, and it seemed like he and Calia quickly became close because she went to him first and fell asleep on his lap. Even with his eyes closed, Zairon didn't let go of Calia's little hand. I smiled.
