'I hear your voice, Within the noice, time stops, we are connected by sound, Hey princess is calling, your princess is calling'

"Hello, Valerie speaking" Valerie replied in her hoarse, sleepy voice.

"Mamma, am I disturbing your rest?" a sweet delicate voice came from the other end.

Valerie jumped out from her sleep.

Now she is totally awake.

"Of course not my precious, you did a great job by calling mamma. If I got up late then I would have been in trouble."

"By the way, Good morning princess" Valerie said with a gentle voice.

"Oh yes, Good morning mamma, actually,,,... Micaela really misses mamma" Micaela said with some hesitation.

"My precious, mamma also misses you but you know I'm not in Z city right now"

"Yes, I know, Sister Ming called me yesterday to know that mamma is not at home, went somewhere for business"

"Um, yes, that's right.. My princess is coming back so I've to prepare a grand welcoming party, right?" Valerie changed the topic.

"Yes, but if mamma having problems for money then you don't have to do this,"

"Of course not, how can it be?"Valerie continued "Actually you know baby that I've to earn for me and you, so we can travel the world, isn't it our aim? "

" Yea! Then after I came back, I'll also earn money " overjoyed Micaela said.

" Ok, baby, I'll call at night, ok? "

" Ok, mamma,, love you "

" Love you too my princess"

After hanging up Valerie got down from the bed and head over to the bathroom.

Downstairs, Mary is calling her mother to know that Valerie came. Her mom was nagging her for months to ask Valerie came and spend some time with her.

'Ring, rring'

"You know I'm busy with___"

Silence fell from both sides.

"Brat, are you for real? Don't lie to me," Mrs Nian asked with doubts.
