Daddy! Come Home for Dinner!

âAlright!â Morgan Zhekova grabbed onto Adrian Zhekovaâs pants and started walking forward.
Adrian Zhekova: â .
He reached out his hand: âHold hands.â
Morgan thought for a bit, and still placed his small hand into Adrian Zhekovaâs palm.
Big hand holding a little hand, walking together.
Peggy Lewis didnât follow them.
Setting a fire in the backyard was too scary, she decided to keep her distance.
For now, let Cindy Clarke fend for herself.
As he walked, Adrian Zhekova couldnât help but ponder in his heart.
Originally, Cindy had secretly run to Belfard, and naturally, she wouldnât have contact with anyone from her previous life in Nork City.
Otherwise, there wouldnât be only one friend like Peggy Lewis after five long years.
Today, Cindy just showed up, and she coincidentally ran into an old classmate.
Could it be any more ironic?
âIs that old classmate the same age as Cindy?â Adrian Zhekova asked.
âI donât know,â Morgan replied, not really paying attention.
âHow could you not know?â Adrian Zhekova said, quite disdainful.
âIt could be a classmate from Cindyâs grade, or it could be her senior. Even if they were in the same grade, they could be older or younger than her. Even if heâs her senior, they could still be the same age or younger. How can anyone say for certain?â Morgan swung their hands back and forth as he held onto Adrianâs.
Adrian Zhekova: .
âBut what I can be sure of is that heâs definitely younger than you, Uncle,â Morgan added. âHe doesnât have any wrinkles on his face!â
âNeither do I!â He was only 29 years old, not old at all, and couldnât possibly have any wrinkles!
Having said that, Adrian Zhekova felt a bit uneasy.
He let go of Morganâs hand and took out his mobile phone from his pocket, turning on the front-facing camera to take a look.
As expected, he didnât have wrinkles!
Adrian Zhekova put away his phone and looked down to see Morgan looking up at him: âUncle, were you just checking if you had wrinkles on your face?â Adrian Zhekova: .
âYouâre actually afraid of getting wrinkles too, right?â Morgan continued.
âThatâs the worry of someone getting older!â
Adrian Zhekova scoffed and replied, âBeing so short, can you even see if someoneâs face has wrinkles?â
Morgan: â
âYes, I can!â Morgan puffed up his cheeks. âAnyway, heâs younger than you, looks about the same age as Cindy, and their ages are just perfect together.â
âWhat do you know about being a perfect match?â Adrian Zhekova said irritably.
Seeing Morganâs puffed-up cheeks, he couldnât help but reach out and pinch them.
And surprisingly, the touch was really nice.
His skin was even smoother than Cindyâs, soft and tender to the touch.
Morgan: â
Why was everyone pinching his face today!
Cindy Clarke had no idea that Adrian Zhekova was on his way.
She heard Ian Morris mention why he was here and exclaimed in surprise, âHospital? Youâre a doctor?â
âYes,â Ian Morris scratched his head, a bit embarrassed. âI got into Capitol Medical College after my college entrance exams. Iâm currently doing my postgraduate studies and started interning at the hospital. Iâve just been transferred to the Pentz Surgery Department.â
âItâs at Pentz General Hospital,â Ian Morris continued, âIf you need to see a doctor or anything, just go there. I can help with appointments, choosing a doctor, and things like that.â
âOf course, itâs best not to go to the hospital if youâre healthy and not in pain,â Ian Morris said with another embarrassed smile.
Otherwise, it would seem like he was cursing her.
Cindy didnât mind, replying with a smile, âIf anything comes up in the future,
Iâll have to trouble you..â
