Kneeling for a Second Chance (Sebastian and Valeria) novel Chapter 114

"Mommy, can we see Great-Grandma again next week?" Selena asked.

Valeria pulled out a tissue and wiped Selena's reddened eyes. Humans were emotional creatures, and goodbyes were always sad.

Valeria said, "We'll come and stay at her house during the winter break. We'll stay for a long time."

When she opened her bag, she saw that it was stuffed full of things. They were all snacks that Margaret had been saving for them at home, old-fashioned snacks that had gone out of style. They were snacks that had long been eliminated from the shelves of big cities.

Even the money Valeria had secretly tucked under Margaret's bed was now stuffed back in her bag.

"Are these from Great-Grandma?" Selena beamed, peeling open a candy wrapper. She handed the first one to Valeria and had the second one herself.

Valeria's eyes reddened. At that moment, she felt that her life really was happy and warm. She had a cute and thoughtful daughter, as well as a grandmother who loved her.

The candy was cheap and ordinary, but it was the sweetest Valeria had ever tasted.

She made up her mind.

Once Selena recovered from her surgery, Valeria might bring Selena back to the village to live. A slow life might suit Selena better.

By the time they got home, it was already six in the evening. Since it was winter, the sky was already dark.

"Mommy, did you get a package?" Selena asked.

When they were changing shoes, Valeria noticed a package on the shoe cabinet.

Valeria hadn't bought anything, and there wasn't a shipping label on the package either. She opened it and saw a pink backpack inside that was just the right size for Selena's shoulders.

Valeria pulled out her phone and searched for the brand. When she saw that it had a five-digit price tag, she couldn't help but gasp.
