Lisa swung by with Nova in tow.

Playing solo at hwas not proving to be enjoyable for Nova; she found herself yearning for William's company. So, Lisa decided

to drop her off for a playdate that would last a couple of days, right up until the family reunion over a hearty weekend. After the

festivities, Aurelia would escort Nova back home.

"Nova," William scooped her up into his arms and planted a smattering of kisses on her rosy cheeks. Nova, bubbling with delight,

flailed her tiny limbs and puckered up, returning the affection with equal gusto, "William, William."

"And what about me, your sister Mira?" Mira chimed in with a giggle.

"Hungry sister," Nova lisped adorably.

Nina burst into laughter, clutching her sides, "Hungry sister? Spot on. You could say she's always peckish, munching from dawn till

dusk."

Mira stuck her tongue out at Nina in jest, "You'll never understand the epicurean life."

Skyler took Nova from William's arms, whose slight frwas not quite up to the task of carrying her upstairs. That was a job for

Skyler. Together, they headed to the study.

William suggested a gthat would send shivers down their spines, a spooky version of hide and seek dubbed "Hunt for William."

Mira tilted her head, her eyes wide with curiosity, "So, you hide, and we seek, right?"

"Yep," William nodded, setting the stage for their eerie adventure on the dimly lit third floor, crafting the perfect atmosphere of

suspense.

"This doesn't sound scary at all," Mira snickered.

"Who knows, we might even bump into a ghost," William said, a mischievous grin playing on his lips.

"I'm all for it. | love a good scare," Skyler clapped his hands eagerly, always up for a heart-pounding thrill.

The gang gathered on the terrace to count down, with Nova standing in her baby walker. Clueless about the game's mechanics,

she was nonetheless ecstatic to be in the company of her siblings, giggling and clapping away.

William disappeared to locate the perfect hiding spot. Skyler and the kids reached the hundred count and set off on their quest.

Mira tiptoed to the study, with Nova toddling behind her in her walker, "William? William?"

Mira put a finger to her lips and whispered to Nova, "We're playing hide and seek. William's hiding and we have to find him. The

first one to do so wins."

Nova gazed at Mira, seemingly understanding as she mimicked her gesture.

Mira scoured the study, checking behind curtains, under desks, and around every nook and cranny.

Suddenly, a small hand tapped her shoulder. She spun around to find Kane grinning at her. "Found William yet?"

"Nope," Mira shook her head, "He's not here. I'll look elsewhere."

"Okay," Kane nodded.

Mira took Nova by the hand and left the study, turning back to invite Kane to the next room, only to find he had vanished, "Kane?

Kane?"

A little boy emerged from the end of the hallway, "Mira, did you call me?"

Mira's eyes widened in disbelief as if she had just seen a ghost. Wasn't Kane just in the study with them? "How did you disappear

and cfrom that room?" Asked Mira.

"That wasn't me," Kane shook his head, "I saw you and Nova head for the study, so | went to check the other room."

A cold shiver ran down Mira's spine, feeling as though a chilly ghostly breeze had swept in from the study. "Are you really Kane?"

He walked over, looking puzzled, "Mira, what's wrong?"

Fear prickled at Mira's skin, and she turned to Nova, "Nova, did we just see Kane in the study?"

"Yeah, yeah, yeah," Nova nodded vigorously, confirming the eerie encounter.
