Sweet Mischief’s Rollercoaster Romance

Mia stepped outside and called out, "Anya, come here, sweetie."

Anya, holding the child, was about to run off when Hansen intercepted her, "Anya, go have some fun. Henry stays with Grandpa." When he wasn't crying, the adorable Henry was everyone's favorite to hold. Eventually, Henry ended up back in his grandfather's arms, contentedly sucking on his hand and not caring who held him.

Unable to compete with the elders, Anya went outside and spotted Molly. Surprised, she exclaimed, "Oh, Aunt Molly, you're back too!"

Molly asked, "Where were you just now?"

Anya pulled up a chair and sat down in front of them, "Chad went to work, so I went apartment hunting for us."

"Didn't Leo say he'd drop you off at home before work? Did he agree to let you stay here?" Mia inquired.

Anya poured herself a glass of water, "Um, no, Auntie."

Everything had been going according to plan. Leo had taken a few days off to accompany Anya to various romantic spots and even went hiking with her.

At the top of the mountain, Anya prayed at a quaint chapel for their relationship. She also wished for Chad's success in his postgraduate exams.

Leo joked, "If I were a deity, I'd refuse both your requests."

Anya, young and somewhat superstitious, playfully scolded Chad in the yard, "This is a sacred place, you shouldn't speak ill of it. The gods might blame you." Leo gestured around them, "Which deity should be blamed? It's like asking the god of water for fire or praying for rain from the god of fire."

Anya scratched her head, "Chad, how did you know I got it mixed up?"

"Your grandfather is quite superstitious. I've been following him around, praying to every statue since I was a kid. How could I not recognize them?" Anya hurried to make amends.
