Millie was about to reach for the gift when Vivian quickly took the bag with the gift inside.

Serena felt a little disappointed. She had hoped Millie would open the gift to see what was inside, so she asked in her sweet voice, "Aren't you going to open the gift for Rena to see?"

Millie also tugged at her mom's sleeve. "Mom, I want to see the gift Rena gave me."
