Throughout the night, Maggie's dreams were jumbled and chaotic.
Sometimes they involved her orphanage days, sometimes her past five, and sometimes her experiences. It was a mess of emotions-happy, sad, and painful.
The next morning, Maggie woke up unusually early.
She couldn't shake off her thoughts and found herself unable to fall back asleep.

After staring at him for a while, Maggie quietly got up to prepare breakfast.
With her limited culinary skills, she made two sandwiches and brewed two cups of coffee.
The living room's record player played soft classical music. After finishing her tasks, Maggie showered and emerged. As she headed to the bedroom to check on Nathael, she accidentally bumped into him at the door. Clearly, he had just finished showering, with a faint, refreshing scent lingering on him. Nathael pulled her into his arms and kissed her forehead. "You're up early today." Maggie didn't reply but held his hand. "I made sandwiches." Nathael let her lead him, his eyes falling on her unsorted luggage in the corner. He spoke in a deep voice. "I'll get the maid to help you sort your things later and see what else you need. I'll have Alex buy them and bring them over." "Don't fuss over it," Maggie said, unable to force a smile. She just responded casually.

The next day, she still hadn't touched it and only took out a few essential items.
Maggie figured she wouldn't stay long, so why go through the trouble? Nathael glanced at her, his dark eyes tinged with curiosity, but Maggie just nudged the plate towards him. "Give it a try." "Sure." Breakfast was simple and lacked culinary flair. Maggie ate with him, her mind wandering, feeling oddly uneasy.
"This time, I wonder if the Camerons will still get involved in Sierra's situation." Maggie brought up a topic herself.
Nathael replied, "They're dealing with their own struggles now; Sierra will likely be left to fend for herself. Maggie nodded. "I heard if they can't repay the money, the bank will seize their assets within two weeks." Nathael took a sip of coffee and nodded. "The Camerons have a lot of assets tied up with me; the rest probably won't be spared either." After chatting for a bit, Maggie ran out of topics until they finished eating. Nathael was washing dishes. when he asked, "Any plans for today?" Maggie thought for a moment and asked, "Are you busy?" “I'm free in the morning, but I have meetings with partners and another appointment in the afternoon.” Nathael checked his schedule Alex had sent him.

The orphanage looked much the same, old but slightly improved after renovations.
The teaching building had changed, and the fences and gates had been renovated, expanding several times. Except for a few scattered corners, it was hard to find traces of the past. The director and teachers had gone through multiple changes, but there were two familiar faces, just much older than Maggie remembered.
The children in the orphanage seemed much happier than before, but Maggie knew ho amount of happiness could replace the pain of not having a family.
