As tticked away, Munchkin and | were so engrossed in our books at the coffee shop that we did not even
notice the tpassing, nor did we notice the silence after all the kids had left the children's area.
By the t| looked up, the staff members in the store had already started cleaning up a table far away. |
glanced at my phone to see that it was past 10 o'clock.
Stores would generally close around 10, let alone a store with a children's playground. Their opening hours would
be even shorter as children would not play outside late at night, so there was no point staying open.
Besides, not many young children disliked playing like Munchkin.
After realizing that it was getting late, | hurriedly called Munchkin. We put the books back in their original spots
and left the mall after thanking the staff members.

After walking out of the mall, | saw that the streets outside were still bustling.
The bustle here was different from Zenon. In Zenon, one would see people pour into the streets like they had
nothing better to do.
They would just stroll around aimlessly, and even if they did have somewhere to go, they were in no hurry to get
there. People would just walk leisurely along the streets while taking a look at their surroundings, and they would
eventually wobble their way to their destination without any tconstraints as their only goal was to get there.
Most of the pedestrians did not know each other, but as long as one of them smiled, the other party would smile
back as a sign of greeting.
On the contrary, the bustle of Whaldorf City saw large crowds. Everyone on the street seemed to be in a hurry,
and no one would even stop for a minute for things that did not concern them.
| guessed that it was likely that many people were working overttoday, so an evening rush hour had
appeared in the city, which made it look lively. "Mommy, are we going to the office to look for Daddy?" Munchkin
asked me.
| stood on the street, then looked left and right.
"No, we're going home. We'll go hand wait for Daddy."

There were two reasons why | did not want to go to the company. One of which was that I did not want to bump
into Ruby again as | was already a little tired. The other was that | did not want to hold Theo up at work. He
suddenly arranged to work overtjust so that he could spend twith Munchkin andtomorrow.
He was squeezing two days' worth of work in one night, so the workload must be heavy. If | brought
Munchkin there to interrupt him
again, Theo might need to work until after midnight.

| rang Keith up and took a taxi to bring Munchkin back home.
Not long after we got in the car, the little guy's head leaned heavily on my shoulder. | looked at him again and
wondered when he had fallen asleep. Cto think of it, Munchkin always had the habit of napping, but we
went out on a whim today, so I did not have the tto plan a nap.
Not to mention the anticipation of going to a new school, Munchkin was too excited. Hence, the idea of napping
never crossed our minds. Being able to last until now was not an easy feat for him.
Luckily, as soon as the car arrived at the Servant cout to pick us up. Otherwise, | would have
no idea how | would be able to carry this little guy back to his room.
| looked at the servant carrying Munchkin over her shoulder, and | suddenly realized that Munchkin was not that
little anymore.
| tucked Munchkin in, and he did not even realize that he was sleeping in a different bed. As long as there were
adults around, he could sleep anywhere.
