âAm I that narrow-minded?â
Brendan took a bite of the bread and asked back, âYou ask me?â
Gail huffed.
âAre you really going to be like this? You wonât even let me save face in front of Rosa.
â
âI thought you wanted me to always be honest,â he retorted.
Gailâs mouth hung open.
As Rosalynn listened to the coupleâs exchange, her mouth curved into a smile.
She could tell that the two really loved each other.
âIâll call them in for bread,â said Rosalynn.
âOkay,â Gail answered.
She caught sight of Brendan staring at Rosalynn with a dazed look in his eyes.
âWhat are you looking at?â she asked.
âShe reminds me so much of you when you were younger,â Brendan said.
Gailâs face softened.
âI thought so, too.
Do you think⦠If our daughter were still alive, do you think she would have looked Like Rosalynn?â
Her voice quivered with a hint of sadness and regret.
Brendan knew that his wife was once again thinking of the daughter they had lost.
He drew her closer, letting his warmth bring her comfort.
Outside, Rosalynn spoke to a servant and came to the sports field.
She saw two figures from afar chasing after each other on the field.
It was the first time she saw Brian play basketball.
He jumped up and then shot the ball into the hoop.
What a clean move.
Rosalynn raised her eyebrows, her traitorous heart skipping a beat.
She couldnât deny that he looked really attractive playing sports.
