Christine stood by the French window for a while, and upon hearing some faint sounds outside, she turned around, drank the milk from the bedside in one go, and then went out with the empty cup in hand.

Hearing the noise, Yasmin glanced up and, thinking about what Joanne had just told her, felt a pang of sympathy. She didn't understand how this girl had grown up, how much hardship she had endured. Even after returning for over a year, she still didn't genuinely bond with her biological mother.

We'll take it slow." The unexpected embrace made Christine freeze.
