Linda was contented. She had rarely been alone with him without Mya's disturbance.
She was in a great mood.
Moreover, in the afternoon, the moving crew would come and help her move. Things were going in the right direction.

It was the most famous coffeehouse in Arkpool city with great location and classy environment.
In a booth, Mya and her mother sat opposite each other.
"Mya, haven't you always hated yellow clothes? When did you buy a yellow coat?" Shirley remembered very clearly that her daughter had never liked yellow since she was a child. She said it was the color of an ugly duckling.
Mya remembered the day when Finnley took her out for clothes-shopping.
Her eyes were bright as stars and she replied with a smile, "People change as they grow up.” Shirley smiled, "That's right..." How should she follow the lead? A topic about growing up.
"Mya," Shirley gently stirred her coffee with a silver spoon, half-jokingly and half-seriously asked, "Do you think that people tend to be estranged from their parents after they grow up?” Mya sipped her coffee and blinked her big eyes. "No, | don't think so. Do you think so?” "I don't think so, either." Shirley smiled.
Mya said, "I think I'm still the apple of you and dad's eyes. We are bonded by blood, how can we be estranged?” Shirley agreed and nodded, "Mya, you have had your 20th birthday. Do you have anyone you like in school?” "No, and it's nothing to do with age, right?" Mya laughed and joked, "I don't like any of the guys in school. They are either too short or too ugly, or, too geeky.” "What about off-campus?" Shirley asked carefully, "Is there anyone you like outside the school?" Her curious eyes did not move away from Mya.

Mya sipped her coffee. "I am in my prime. | want to stay away from men! Young girls nowadays always say that.” Huh! Did she mean it? Otherwise, what was she doing now? Shirley thought that Mya was obviously lying and she was starting to feel angry.
But thinking of her husband's words, she reminded herself not to be angry and that she needed to reflect on herself.
“But honey, | think it's normal for us to fall in love. And sometimes we don't fall in love by our own choice. What do you think?” “Maybe.” Mya drank her coffee.
“You might just run into someone and fall in love naturally,” as Shirley said, she observed the look on Mya's face and tried to read her mind. “But dad and | want to be informed when you do.” "I will,” Mya promised, "I will introduce him to you when it happens. Thank you for being so open-minded.” "So... When are you introduce him to us?” "I haven't met one yet," Mya blurted out and pouted, "How could | introduce him to you when such a person hasn't existed?” "You..." Shirley was pissed.
Mya smiled, "Mom, drink your coffee. I'm going back to work. It's been busy in the company lately, we have several urgent projects in hand.” “Mya...” "Mom, why didn’t you ask me anything about work?” Mya interrupted her, “It's been a long time since we last met and all you asked about is my relationship with others. | didn’t remember you care at all when | was in my adolescence.” Shirley was about to say something more when she looked up and saw Finnley coming in. He had a file bag in his hand and a woman beside him.
