243: MORE MOMENTS

ARIEL’S POV

“What did iniss?” Luke asked, smiling at the both of us.

“Oh, you missed a lot,” I answered.

“Daddy!” Janice ran to him. “Where did you go?”

“I just had some things to take care of. But don’t worry now; Daddy’s back.”

“Cool, how about we play a game together?”

“That’s going to be nice. I’m going to crush you.” Luke playfully told her, and she laughed.

“We’ll see about that,” she smirked at him. These two were giving me joy, putting a gleeful smile on my face. I couldn’t control the joy..

“Come on, let’s do this.” Luke chuckled, ruffling her hair affectionately before turning to me. “Alright, what game should we play first?” He asked, staring at

As we moved on to another game, I watched Luke and Janice laugh and cheer, completely engrossed in their friendly competition. They looked great together. Maybe becoming a family wouldn’t be a bad idea for the three of us. I didn’t know why I wasn’t still settled on that.

Eventually, we made our way to the claw machine, where Janice begged Luke to try to win her a stuffed animal. Luke rolled his eyes playfully but couldn’t resist her puppy dog’s eyes. After a few tries, he finally managed to grab a stuffed unicorn, much to Janice’s delight.
