Meet My Brothers by Red Thirteen

Soon after, Mia and Patricia arrived home with the children, ready to freshen up and get ready for bed.

As Mia settled onto the plush mattress, she took a quiet moment to observe Sage and Ginger, peacefully asleep beside her. Gazing out the window, she found herself absorbed in the vibrant cityscape outside the constant motion of cars and people. After all these years, returning to such tranquility was beyond anything Mia could have imagined.

With Sage and Ginger snugly tucked in beside her, Mia's heart brimmed with gratitude for the happiness she now embraced.

The next day, Mia prepared to take Sage and Ginger to the hospital to visit Laura, feeling hopeful that today might be the day Laura finally woke up.

Shortly after they finished breakfast, a knock echoed through the house.

Curious, Patricia headed to the door. "Who's there?" she called out.

To Mia's surprise, their neighbor from the previous day stood outside, holding a generous array of fruits.

"Hello, Aunt Patricia. I spoke to a friend yesterday about our conversation. When his son saw a photo of Ms. Lane, he was genuinely impressed. He's willing to meet her and is completely accepting of her having children."

Patricia's expression darkened instantly. "Please, take your things and leave. Mia isn't interested in a blind date."

Despite Patricia's clear dismissal, the neighbor set the fruits down and hurried away.

Fuming with indignation, Patricia exclaimed, "Who does that?"
