Chapter 45 Mom's and Dad's faces turned gloomy in an instant. Mom's jaw pulled taut as rage boiled in her eyes.
| hadn't returned heven when it was nearly 9:00 pm that night. When Mom called my number, she found my phone on the couch in the living room, left behind. Felix’s phone had been shut down.
Mom said she was really worried because the thunderstorm was too violent. So, she went to knock on Aunt Melinda's door to ask my whereabouts.
But when Mom opened the door, she saw Felix sitting on the couch, cuddling with Lilac and feeding her fruit.
When Mom asked him where | was, he was confused. “Luna isn’t back yet? We parted ways on the street earlier.” When Mom and Dad figured out where exactly Felix and | parted ways, they ran out looking forwithout even taking an umbrella.

No one was out in the streets while the rain poured.
Mom and Dad panicked. They knocked on every single shop door to ask whether anyone had seen me.
The storm was strong that day. Most of the shops had closed for the day. There were very few people Mom and Dad managed to ask.
Only afterward did they hear from a pet shop owner that an ambulance had cby earlier. It seemed that someone had fallen into a storm drain, though the owner wasn’t sure if that person was who Mom and Dad were looking for.
When Mom and Dad arrived at the hospital, | was already being treated in the ER. Besidewas that kind old man.
| smiled faintly after hearing their explanation. Sadness trickled into my heart like a small stream.
“I really didn’t expect Felix to be so irresponsible... Mom's face grew red with anger as she recalled what happened.
“Don’t be angry, Mom. Don’t blFelix. It made sense for him to leave with his girlfriend. It’s not like our relationship is anything special.
“If you want someone to blame, blme for going out to eat with him in the first place. This won't happen again, Mom.” Mom's and Dad's eyes were filled with tenderness when they looked at me.
Mom cried again, mumbling, “Oh, my silly child,” After consoling the both of them, someone knocked on the ward door.
To no one’s surprise, It was Uncle Austin and Aunt Melinda. They had brought all sorts of gifts over. Behind them was Felix. Lilac didn’t tag along.

Mom went over to stop Aunt Melinda. She put back all the foodstuffs Aunt Melinda had prepared into the bag. " No need. We don't need anything here. Thank you for making the trip, but we can take care of Lulu. You guys should go now.”
Aunt Melinda could tell Mom was being distant. Her eyes reddenedn with tears" Don't be like this, Harper. It's just some food I prepared for Luna . Please don't pushaway.” Aunt Melinda set down the things in hand and pulled Felix over. “Apologize to Lulu right now.” Felix didn’t look well.

You should go home.” He was the one who askedout and abandonedby the side of the road on the sevening. What was the point in apologizing now?
