“Finnian!” Noelle gently touched his arm. “Don’t take it to heart. It was just a stupid pk

The man flinched and hurriedly apologized, “I’m so sorry, Finnian: Look at me, what an dies g I left my brain at home today.”
After parting ways with Finnian’s group, Kaia and Silas played a few holes with Mr Walls and In Lyons before deciding to grab some drinks back at the clubhouse lounge
Mr. Wells and Dr. Lyons had an impromptu video call to take, so they asked Silas and Kaia to wait for about half an hour.
Silas walked over with a glass of juice for Kaia. “There’s a practice green over there Want to try your hand at chipping?”
Kaia had taken a few swings earlier that were embarrassingly bad. Seeing an opportunity to practice. she nodded. “Sure, I really should practice a bit.”
Silas naturally picked up her golf bag. “Let’s go.”
The practice green was located directly below the second–floor lounge balcony. The grass was lust and perfectly manicured.
Kaia took off her jacket, leaving on her white polo shirt. She put on her glove, took the wedge from Silas, and tried hitting chips from different distances.
But her distance control and ball placement were still terrible. She frowned slightly secretly thinking she had absolutely zero athletic talent.

Meanwhile, up on the second–floor lounge by the window, Finnian stood with a glass of ice water a his hand, his eyes burning as he watched the two of them on the green below
The sunlight hit them perfectly. Kaia looked intensely focused, while Silas maintained a respectful distance but guided her with meticulous care.
After watching them in silence for a few moments, Finnian’s grip tightened until his knuckles

He watched as Silas grabbed Kaia’s wrist directly, helping her correct her downswing.
The scene directly contradicted Finnian’s memories. He remembered bringing Kaia here before, wanting to teach her how to swing. He had tried to physically guide her a few times, but because they had brought Brynlee along, Kaia spent the whole time looking after their daughter and had zero interest in learning. He had eventually given up.
But now, with Silas teaching her, she was trying so hard, acting like she was determined to master the sport.
Noelle walked over at some point, following his gaze to the scene below.
She feigned surprise. “I didn’t know Kaia was learning golf? I thought she hated it.”
