As everyone settled into the room, Abigail began making tea.

Lina quickly stepped in. "Take your time. I've brought something special for you and Luna."

From their bags, the two elders pulled out elegant red brocade boxes.

Lina handed one to Abigail, while Colby slid his across to Luna.

"These are blessed gold lockets. We had someone chart Larry's future, and this one is meant for him. The other is for your unborn child, assuming all goes well," Lina explained to both Abigail and Luna. Luna, pleasantly surprised that Larry was included, accepted the gift with a smile. "Thank you so much, Grandpa and Grandma."

"There's no need for thanks. We're family, after all." Colby dismissed with a casual wave.

Abigail examined her locket, admiring the intricate craftsmanship.

"So you traveled all this way just to deliver these lockets?" Abigail tucked them away safely, expressing her gratitude. "Thank you for going to such lengths." S~ᴇaʀᴄh the FindNøvᴇl.nᴇt website on Gøøglᴇ to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

"We've been meaning to do this for some time, but catching you two has always been a bit of a challenge..." Lina confessed with a resigned laugh.

Abigail felt slightly guilty. "We've settled down now. Once the baby is born, we'll hold the wedding. The paperwork is already complete."

"Stability is key. With secure jobs, our priority is our children, got it?" Lina affirmed, squeezing Abigail's hand. "I prayed for Analise yesterday and told her about your pregnancy. Oddly, I dreamt of her last night. She told me to look after you both."

Abigail was moved. "Thank you for thinking of her."

"You're always so polite with us. By the way, is it just you two at home today?" Lina scanned the room, noticing the absence of other family members.

"My parents thought you'd be here later, so they went out early to shop for groceries. You've surely not had breakfast, yes? Let's eat together," Abigail commented, standing and taking Lina's hand.
