He Finally Found Her!
"Leonica, is that you?" Christian asked, his tone and expression filled with disbelief as he took a step forward.

"You're not gonna believe me if I say I don't know who you are, are you?" Leonica asked, trying to remain polite.

"No!" Leonica quickly interrupted him before he could finish. "No. He's uh, my...godson. His mother, a close relative on mine was busy so I'm just filling in for her." She added after calming down from her alarmed state. Christian blinked, a bit surprised at the speed of her reply.
"I see," He replied, although not quite convinced but not choosing to pry further either. Changing the topic, he asked. "How have you been this past few years?"
