“They’re not of legal marriage age yet, Zaid wondered helplessly, choosing to give up.

Elowyn couldn’t bear to stand in the way of Janet and Claude’s relationship, so she could only feel anxious in silence.

On her way home, she thought about it again and again, finally deciding to bring it up right away when she entered the garden. “Quinlyn, I think our relationship needs to change.”

Quinlyn froze for a moment, looking up at Elowyn’s face in the dim garden, her expression unusually serious. The corners of her lips twitched.

Quinlyn wanted to ask something, but then she pressed her lips tightly together. There was no such thing as an unquestionable good in this world. Quinlyn could understand if Elowyn chose to sever ties with her.

Quinlyn lowered her eyes, her lashes trembling slightly. It was

hard to read her emotions.

The next second, Elowyn’s voice trembled as she said, “Can I be your mother?”

Before Elowyn could finish, Quinlyn had already thrown herself into her arms, tightly hugging Elowyn.

Elowyn’s jumbled words immediately stopped, and she felt Quinlyn’s trembling body in her arms. Her heart softened, and her eyes became moist. “You’re willing, right?”

Quinlyn responded with a slight nasal tone, her voice firm. “Yes.”

Elowyn finally felt her heart settle, continuously stroking Quinlyn’s back. The garden at night seemed even more beautiful than during the day.

Elowyn didn’t worry about Quinlyn’s way of addressing her anymore. She pulled Quinlyn inside, settled her at the door, and they sat down on the bed, reading a fairy tale picture book for the first time.

The nightlight cast a soft yellow glow. Quinlyn kept her eyes open, watching Elowyn until her consciousness grew hazy. She finally closed her eyes and fell into a deep sleep.
