Aria and Arsh returned home tired but still enthusiastic. Passing a few bags to maids to keep in Arsh and Arna's room, and a few in Aria and Alan's bedroom, mother and son carried the rest of the bags holding each other's hands to reach others.
Rian elbowed his brother, "Bro, Little Devil can live without you." He tried to make Alan jealous by looking at Nemo beaming which was a rare sight for everyone excluding Aria.
Alan looked at the little hand clutching his wife's hand even after entering the mansion. He wasn't sticking to his mother when he was little, so he started to think if it's from Aria.
"Snow, don't you want to check your gifts?" He blandly asked.
Arna excitedly ran and threw herself on Aria, after hugs and kisses, she separated the mother and son and held their hands. She coyed the duo, "Did you two bring me gifts? I worked so hard for you two."
