“Hi, mom!” She called out smilingly, walked over quickly, and put down the bag in her hand. “I bought t

That was the reason behind Joseph and Eloise‘s argument. It was because Joseph wanted to take in his

Arianna held the cake, paused, then smiled

softly. “How do I feel about it? What do you mean, mom? How do you think I should feel?”
