Wendy returned home bone-weary.
Leah and Jake were overjoyed to see her and ran to welcome her home. However, Wendy was too tired to entertain them.
Holding Leah's hand, Michael said, "Mummy is very tired today, let's not disturb her okay? Let Mummy rest for a bit."
Leah nodded immediately and did not bother Wendy anymore.
Other than being tired, Wendy was also starving. It was already late at night and she had yet to have dinner. It wouldn't be so bad to go hungry if it were just her, but she had a baby to think of now.
Michael quickly made her a sandwich but saw that she was not resting when he brought it in for her.
She was staring at an image on her cell phone. It was a picture of her and Zen, taken when they were in university.
Back then their smiles were so unadulterated.
She remembered how spirited Zen used to be.
