“Alright, then we're off to sleep. You should go to bed early too,” Gloria said, as
she and Daniel went upstairs.
After they left, Nicole, Jared, Nolan, and Lana also went to their rooms.
Only Stanley and Tia were still in the living room. Stanley, holding Tia’s hand,
said, “You must be tired after today.” “Not really,” Tia answered, blushing a little
as she looked down.
“Then... should we head to bed?” “Yeah.”
Holding hands, they gently walked up the stairs to their bedroom.
The next day dawned bright and sunny, and everyone got up as usual and
gathered in the dining room.
The only new thing was that Tia was now officially part of the family.
“Stanley, when is your flight? Do you have enough time?” Gloria asked.
“We have lots of time. Our flight isn’t early, so we're not in a hurry,” Stanley
answered.
“Good, then have breakfast and prepare to leave,” Gloria said, relieved.
Stanley nodded, “Tia has already packed everything, Mom, don’t worry.”
Gloria smiled at Tia, “I feel so much better now. With Tia by your side, I really
don't worry about you anymore.”
Tia humbly replied, “I just help out with little things.” “Don’t downplay it. I know
you'll look after him well,” Gloria told her, then reminded Stanley, “And you, make
sure to look after Tia too.” “Of course, I know,” Stanley promised.
“Uncle Stanley, how long will you be gone?” Lana asked.
“About a month, or maybe longer,” Stanley replied with a smile.
“Then you'll bring US gifts, right?” her eyes shone with anticipation.
The family laughed and reassured her, “Don’t worry, there will definitely be gifts.”
After breakfast, Nicole and Jared took Nolan and Lana to the kindergarten.
Stanley and Tia, having packed their luggage, then left for the airport.
“Finally, one less thing to worry about,” Gloria said, watching them go with a
sense of relief.
“I'm not tired. I enjoy doing these things,” Gloria said proudly.
Indeed, she would feel more tired without such engagements to occupy her.
