Standing on the balcony of her apartment, Sophie felt the breeze that was playing with her hair. She took a sip of her wine, feeling the rich flavor on her tongue.
She just got back to Kanderton this evening. It was a long-needed break but now she was missing her little munchkins every day.
She had been with them since their birth, and the way, they all were jumping to talk to her on the phone, was something heartwarming.
She gazed out at the city lights twinkling in the distance.
Behind her, the sliding door was gently swished open. She knew who it was.
"What are you thinking, Aunt Fia," She smiled softly when Flint called her Aunt Fia, just like the kids used to call her.
He must also be missing them.
He stepped up beside her holding the wine glass, and placed a gentle hand on her shoulder, "What's on your mind, sweetheart."
