Soon, Dolores heard the robotic voice from the other end of the line, “I’m sorry but the subscriber you dialled is power off...”

She looked over at Theresa with the phone in her hand, “Don’t worry. Probably his phone died.”

Theresa nodded. Reaching out, she wanted to carry the baby, “Let me hold him.”

Now the baby could look up. When Theresa held him, he looked around and his big round eyes kept rolling.

Theresa rubbed his head, “This little fellow’s hair is ink-black. He has so much hair.”

Dolores also thought that her son’s hair was quite good. When Andrew and Amanda were little, their hair didn’t look so good. It became better after they grew up gradually.

Right then, Dolores’s cell phone started vibrating. She pulled out the phone and saw Matthew’s caller ID. She swiped to answer.

Soon, she heard Matthew’s voice, “Come out.”

For a moment, Dolores didn’t get it, “What?”

“I’m at the gate.”

Since Abbott asked for a leave, Matthew had been quite busy. He always left home early and went back home late. Suddenly, he came back in the afternoon, which made Dolores shocked, “Why have you come back at this time.”

“Come out.”

Dolores was speechless.

“You can go out. I’ll take care of Joshua for you,” said Theresa with a smile.

Dolores said on the phone, “Okay. I got it.” After that, she hung it up and said to Theresa, “If you want to go out, please let my mom take care of him.”

“I know. Just go ahead,” said Theresa.
