Chapter 87

Laura’s P.O.V.

We were free, ready to embark on a new journey. My heart waltzed in happiness when Bright grasped my wrist, pulling me closer.

“We are a family, Laura!”

The heat of his intense gaze made me blush, tuming my cheeks cherry tomato. Jane collided her small hands to clap and spoke excitedly.

“Daddy will kiss mommy now!”

Gosh!

Who taught her this?

I couldn’t even raise my head due to embarrassment and feigned anger to scold Jane.

“Bad manners, Jane. No grown up talking.”

Usually, my reprimanding was enough to discipline Jane; however, Bright was on her side now. He chuckled,

“Daddy will kiss mommy. But before that, we will go to see your room. I want every single detail about your school and friends.

Daddy needs to know about your likes and dislikes.”

“Ok, daddy.”

Jane’s exhilarated tone in response was like a first drop of rain after decades old drought, moistening the barren land of my heart. I could easily say that these were the best eight hours of my life that we spent together.

We sat in Jane’s room and saw her pictures, watched the recordings of her matches, and then went out for dinner. She unlocked a new feature of life after meeting her dad.
