"Yay! We're going sightseeing! I love it!" Ava was jumping up and down in excitement as she followed Xiu towards their usual destination for 'sightseeing.'
"Tone it down a little," warned Asteria in a serious tone but the glint in her eyes gave away her own excitement.
Xiu was carrying her son with the baby carrier which made Rowan press against her chest. As she held the hands of the two girls following her, she asked, "Did you tell your mom where you're going?"
Ava pushed her tongue and giggled, "No. Mom doesn't ask me anything if I tell her I'm going to see Xiu." And then she looked up at Xiu with admiration in her eyes. Usually, Nora would ask her about everything but as long as she said Xiu's name, everything in the world was possible. How could she not admire this aunt of hers?
Her aunt ruled the world!
