Loving Mom 334

Back then, Theo had said the same thing.

Xavier raised an eyebrow. “Mr. Biggs. Kelly. What a coincidence… didn’t expect to see you here.”

Kelly smiled, polite but distant. “We actually came looking for Theo. When we went to pick him up from preschool, he was already gone. So we checked his location tracker and saw he was here. We came straight over.”
