#Chapter362
Taking it slow
Lakin
I got dressed, left to pick up Mia, then got out of the car, walked up to the door, and knocked. Michael answered and nodded as I walked through the doorway.
I climbed the stairs to Mia’s bedroom. I knocked and heard her say, /"Come in./"
I turned the handle, walking inside her room. She was tying her shoes and getting frustrated. I walked over and helped her. She gave me a soft smile as I gave her one back.
/"I’m sorry, Lakin. One day, I’ll get it./" She sighed.
/"Baby girl, take all the time you need./" I smiled and stood up. I held out my hand as she took it, interlocking our fingers and leading her out of her room.
We came downstairs.
/"Where are you two going?/" Michael asked us.
/"We’ll have breakfast at my house, then the park and the bakery,/" I said.
/"Have fun./" He smiled.
/"We will,/" Mia said, causing him to smile.
