Chapter 107

Jocelyn had barely set foot inside her parents’ home when she spotted her dad, Calvin, inspecting a box in the living room with a childlike curiosity.

“What’s all this?” she asked when she dropped her bag by the door

“It’s from Hamison, Calvin beamed, his eyes crinkling with delight. “He wanted to buy something for you to bring home but feared you’d be tired out So, he bought these ahead of time and shipped them here.”

As parents, their only wish was for their children to find a loving partner who would cherish them and provide warmth and comfort

“Young people today crave freedom, Calvin said once Jocelyn had hung up. “But with the right person, freedom comes naturally.”

Catching her parents’ knowing looks, Jocelyn teased. “Stop that. You’re scaring me.”

As long as your hearts are together, the feelings won’t change even though it’s a long-distance relationship, Calvin advised, his
