Nadia kept shaking her head saying, "I don't understand."
"Well, Nadia," Nancy sighed exasperatedly while looking with so much concern at her daughter, "you're
far too young. How are you to know that much about love? One day, you will grow up be a fine young
lady. By then, you will finally understand what Mommy and Daddy are facing right now. So please, just
be patient, my darling."
"Mommy, I don't wanna grow up too soon. I just want you and Daddy to stay together!" Nadia cried.
Nadia's question gave Nancy a headache. She felt compelled to answer her daughter's question. "Oh,
my Nadia... go and wake Bobby up now, so the two of you can have breakfast. I'll drive you to the
kindergarten after you eat."
"Mommy, you haven't told me what relationships are. I just want to know what's wrong with your
relationship with Daddy. Is it just like Bobby and Ruby? They ignored each other and looked very angry.
But I saw Ruby crying in secret yesterday," Nadia asked intently while patiently waiting for an answer
from her mom.
Huh? What did Nadia mean?
What happened to Bobby and Ruby?
Did those two kids get into a fight?
"Nadia, tell me more about it. What happened between Bobby and Ruby?" Nancy squatted down and
looked at Nadia.
Nadia leaned closer to her mom and said, "You see, yesterday, I saw that Bobby handed a candy to
another girl. She didn't even give Ruby any. That clearly upset Ruby, so she played with the other boys
and avoided playing with Bobby. It seemed to have made Bobby angry and he deliberately played with
other girls. Then the two of them have been ignoring each other ever since. Mommy, are you and
Daddy doing the same?"
Nancy smiled, saying, "Of course not, my darling. Daddy and Mommy are grownups now. How could
we do such a childish thing? Don't worry, my little darling. You and Bobby have to promise that you will
take care of each other in the kindergarten. As for Ruby, just try to ignore her little fight with Bobby for
now. I'm sure the two of them will make up after a little while."
Nadia slowly bobbed her little head in agreement and asked, "What about Daddy and Mommy? Will
you guys make up soon?"
Nadia was waiting for her answer.
But she and Charles… Nancy didn't know which direction they would go in the future.
The thing she really needed to focus on right now, was curing Nana's illness as soon as she could, and
cooperate with the police so that they'd find out what really happened in the club. Nancy had no idea
what really happened. The only thing she knew was that what happened in the club that night would
definitely affect her relationship with Charles.
"Mommy, I'm asking you…" Nadia insisted while holding Nancy's hand.
"Well... Mommy heard that. There's no problem between me and Daddy. Now, it's time to call Bobby to
have breakfast. I need to drive you to the kindergarten so I can go to work too," urged Nancy.
"Okay, I will wake Bobby up." Not being able to get an actual answer from her mom, Nadia was still
uneasy and turned about reluctantly. But as soon as she was about to walk out of the kitchen, she
found that Bobby was leaning against the door with his arms crossed over his chest.
"Bobby, is that you? Are you up?" Nadia was startled. She covered her chest and said, "Why didn't you
make a sound once you came here? You surprised me when I saw you leaning against the door."
"You are lying, Nadia. You don't even look shocked!" Bobby said, raising his eyebrows.
"I don't want to talk to you anymore." Nadia looked away and pouted.
"Why? Because you feel guilty? What did you tell Mom?" Bobby said and grinned with much sarcasm.
"I just said something about her and Dad. What's wrong?" Nadia had already forgotten that she said
something about Bobby and Ruby to their mom.
Bobby suddenly leaned forward, and yelled fiercely, "Nadia, I'm asking you right now. Why did you tell
Mommy about my relationship with Ruby? You traitor!"
"I am not a traitor! I was just telling the truth. You have a bad relationship with Ruby now. I saw it!"
Nadia shouted obstinately.
"Nadia, I will tell you what. I don't have a good relationship with you now! I don't wanna talk to you ever
again!" Bobby said overbearingly.
"Well, I don't wanna talk to you anymore, either! I'm going to eat all the food for breakfast since you
hate getting out of bed, anyway! If you keep being that way, you'll never eat breakfast again!" Nadia
said as she marched to the table and began gobbling down her food.
"Nadia, if you can eat all the breakfast, go ahead! If you can't eat all of it, then you'll turn into a puppy!"
Bobby didn't give in and said fiercely.
Nadia ignored him and focused on her breakfast.
Nancy didn't want to hear any more of her children's argument. She just wanted them to be fed as soon
as possible, and wanted to send them to kindergarten, so that she could finally go to work.
"Stop arguing! Let's eat!" urged Nancy.
"Mommy, Nadia said she would eat all the breakfast. Of course, I support her! If she can't eat it, she's a
puppy." While watching Nadia gobble up the breakfast, Bobby started to feel hungry.
"There is so much food! How can Nadia eat everything?" asked Nancy.
"You're wrong to underestimate me like that, Mom! Watch me eat all of this!" Not to be outdone, Nadia
said stubbornly.
Sure, Nadia was a foodie, but Nancy made a lot of breakfast. Nadia couldn't eat all of that alone.
She already had two omelets and a glass of milk. Nadia felt that her stomach was full.
Meanwhile, Bobby stood in front of the table and continued to stare at her fiercely.
Nadia didn't want to give up, so she had another bowl of porridge.
She was already feeling full.
However, Bobby continued to mock her. He pushed his breakfast in front of Nadia and said, "Nadia, eat
this too! Otherwise, you will become a puppy."
"I..." Nadia couldn't eat anymore. It turned out she couldn't really eat everything in just one sitting.
Why did she have to say that to Bobby?
Why did she offend this ruthless little demon?
Nadia stared at Bobby with a pitiful look in her eyes.
The look in her eyes was almost saying, "Bobby, I'm full. Please don't push me to eat anymore.
Please…"
Bobby ignored Nadia's pleading eyes and said angrily, "Nadia, if you don't eat my breakfast like you
said, you will be a puppy. You have to bark like a little puppy."
After saying that, Bobby rested his hands on his hips and sneered at Nadia.
Nadia was frightened by his imposing manner, but she really couldn't eat anymore.
If she continued to eat, she would definitely throw up.
"If you don't eat it, you have to learn how to bark like a little puppy. Oh! By the way, you also have to
learn how to run like a puppy." Bobby laughed triumphantly.
Of course, Nadia didn't want to do any of that. She couldn't bear the thought of having to act like a
puppy.
So she tried her best to keep eating.
