“Adele just smiled at me! Do you think she’s warming up to me?”
Ariana, without looking up from her cooking, replied calmly, “Adele’s reactions might be delayed, but she’s not any Less
perceptive or capable.”
Sonia’s excitement was undiminished. Leaning in conspiratorially, she whispered, “Have you noticed how much Adele and Melon
resemble each other? Especially with those charming dimples when they smile!”
Sonia’s comment caught Ariana’s attention. The stir-fry sizzled as Ariana’s hand hovered mid-air for some seconds before
resuming its motions.
“Isn’t it interesting?” Ariana responded with a light tone.
“The first time I saw Adele’s dimples, I couldn’t help but notice their resemblance to Melon’s.”
“Absolutely,” Sonia chimed in from where she stood beside the stove.
Ariana resumed her cooking, deftly tossing the ingredients in the wok.
“I suppose many cute kids share similarities, especially when they’re young. It’s normal for them to resemble each other.”
Sonia nodded and discreetly grabbed a slice of pepper from the cutting board.
“Oh, how are the preparations for that new show coming along?”
Ariana scoffed, maintaining her casual tone.
“Well, you’re aware of the reputation of that production team, but I can deal with it.”
“That’s good,” Sonia said, leaning against the counter with a thoughtful expression.
“However, if you ever need any assistance, don’t hesitate to reach out. I don’t mind stepping in.”
As Sonia reached for more food, Ariana playfully swatted her hand away.
“I won’t take that from you.”
The two friends engaged in light conversation as Ariana wrapped up the cooking.
With Sonia on vacation and the kids growing quite fond of her, she insisted on spending the night to help take care of them.
“You go ahead. You have plenty of work to do. I’ll make sure the kids have a great time!” Sonia playfully winked and added, “You
can shower me with gratitude for my generous offer later.”
Ariana chuckled. She was fully aware that Sonia’s true intention was to have fun with the children, but she graciously accepted.
“Sure, consider yourself greatly thanked in advance!”
After the meal, Ariana settled into her home office to tackle her work while Sonia engaged with the kids. She led them in
imaginative games and goofy dances until Adele began to show signs of sleepiness.
Sonia checked the time and decided it was time for the children’s baths.
