hy is she here though?” She looked up at him and asked the same question once again, determined to know what was happening.

“Summer…” Instead, he looked at me with a smile on his face as he called my name. “Ella’s nanny went on a long break, and since Lisa is not always in the house, I had to bring her over here to stay with us for a while. I’m sorry for not telling you about it earlier, it was kind of urgent,” He apologised to me though he had no reason to. I mean, it’s his house, and it’s up to him what he wants to do with it, yeah?

“Us? Are you living together now?” She looked traumatised like she just heard something she never should have, and her reaction made me chuckle briefly and silently.

“It’s nice to meet you again, Ella,” I finally walked over to her and crouched down to her size.

“I don’t like you,” She told me honestly, her eyes didn’t fail to add to the sincerity.

“I know. For some reason, I don’t seem to like you either…” I paused and ruffled her hair briefly as I gave her a warm smile.

“Don’t touch my hair,” She frowned her face,

“But I think you’ll become my favourite soon, I hope we get along pretty well, and not just with me alone though…” I paused, and just then, I heard footsteps hopping down the staircase as my kids’s laughter filled the air.

“Dad! What are they doing here?” Ella’s shriek drew the kids attention, and I guess it was after they pulled away from Xander that they
