Yelena sported a bob and baby fat remained on her adorable face. Her eyes were large and round and her skin was fair. She was bound to grow up as a beauty.

"I'm sorry for being late."

"It's all right," Yelena said forgivingly in her sweet voice. "Granny said that although it is my birthday today, it was also a very difficult day for Mommy. Mommy gave birth to me on that day and suffered much pain. So we'll celebrate my birthday today, as well as what Mommy did."

Zoe felt warmth creep up her heart at Yelena's words.

She could not help but kiss Yelena on her cheeks and hug her back tightly.
