When the time comes and the family is finally together, Nina and Daddy wouldn’t be like enemies anymore.
It would be so nice to have a happy family.
In order to achieve their goal, the kids gave the mission of watching Nicole to Nina and Maya. Then, they carefully planned their next step.
That night, when Evan came home from work, his eyes unknowingly looked towards the rose arbor.
Suddenly, a figure caught his attention.
The person had their heads low and was slowly pulling a water gun’s trigger to let the water in it drip onto a stone.
A scene instantly surfaced in Evan’s mind.
“What are you doing?”
“I heard that as long as I persevere, dripping water can wear through the stone. I wanted to try and see if it’s really true.”
He watched the little girl with her eyes sparkled and a smile on her face.
“I’ll come every day in the future to drip water on this stone.”
As the memory came back to Evan, sorrow and bitterness washed over him. He began heading in her direction.
When he stopped in front of her, he asked in a low voice, “What’re you doing?”
Sylphiette froze and looked up at him with a sincere look in her eyes before she said, “I heard dripping water on a stone can wear through it. I wanted to try and see if it really works.”
With that said, she lowered her head again and watched as water dripped onto the stone.
The way Evan looked at Sylphiette gradually changed as if he saw hints of the silly girl from the past.
His lips curled up into a soft smile as he added, “It’s going to be a long life. You’ll definitely be able to see water wear through the stone.
Sylphiette’s eyes twinkled and she looked up at him with a serious look. “Will you watch it with me?”
Evan hesitated for a moment before nodding slightly.
It was the answer he gave the little girl back then.
He would be with her forever as they watched water wear through the stone.
“Evan~”
Sylphiette got up and stared at him excitedly.
