I Am The Luna

70. Epilogue 2 ZAIA. or I Am The Luna Chapter 148 By Moonlight Muse

“Zaia, Shelby was asking if you would like to spend the next weekend over at ours. It’s her birthday and we’re having a little family party.” Dad asks, making me smile.

I have never seen Dad as happy as he is now, not with Mom, or Annette. Shelby is a good woman, and she clearly makes him happy. Even now she’s looking at him with admiration, her hand laced with his.

“I think we’d love that,” I say, answering for Sebastian too.

‘Will we?’ he remarks.

‘Yes.

“That’s excellent. I’m so happy you agreed! I think it’ll be lovely having all you children there together.” Shelby says with a happy smile.

‘Great spending a weekend in the same house as Atticus sounds so fun,’ Sebastian says sarcastically.

‘You’ll survive.’ I reply.

“I can’t think of anything better than spending a weekend with Sebastian,” Atticus says with a smile, almost as if knowing what Sebastian’s thinking.

“I’m sure you can,” Valerie says, giving him a suspicious glance whilst Linette smiles.

“It will be fun!” she says, smiling at Valerie. She’s adapted to her, and I love that she’s good towards her.

“And of course, you must come too, Aran. We’re family.” Dad says.

“Yes, I think I can fit it in. I wouldn’t mind another game,” Aran responds, adjusting his suit jacket. Ah, so Dad probably won the last one.

I smile at them as Aran makes a paper crane for Xander.

“I love Grandad’s home!” Xander says. “But I don’t like mushy, gushy Googoo everywhere.” He adds with a shudder, making everyone laugh.

“Well, get used to it! Love is in the air, Xander!” Valerie says, tickling him and he laughs as he tries to get away from her.
