Chapter 19

Alex snickered inwardly, thinking his big bro was cold as ice! But considering his personality, it wasn’t too surprising.

“Mom, yesterday and today are different. I just miss you so much right now, I don’t wanna leave you, and mally want a kiss from you!”

Alex leaned his head onto Clara’s chest, nuzzling affectionately, showing how much he’d missed her these past few days. Being by his mom’s side felt so good….
