111 Hug for a Moment

Keira’s eyes shone faintly, her voice soft lest she startle the old lady. “Then, how did we get our marriage certificate?”

Old Mrs. Horton said with a smile. “I remember that day. You wore a red sweater…”

A red sweater?

Keira paused slightly. Indeed, she had a red sweater, which she bought three years ago during New Year. She stayed alone in her rented room. She wanted to dress joyfully, so it wouldn’t feel so lonely.

And sure enough, that was the sweater she was wearing in the marriage certificate photo.

Keira sighed, “Grandma, it’s time for breakfast.”

After old Mrs. Horton had freshened up, both of them sat in the dining room.

The Horton family’s housekeeper had prepared a very abundant breakfast. Keira and old Mrs. Horton chatted while waiting for Lewis.
