"Did you see that?" Jonathan asked excitedly, nudging Amanda's shoulders and pointing to the TV where Naruto was currently playing.
She snapped out of her thoughts and looked at the TV, "yeah I did, that was super cool" she said even tho she has no idea what he was talking about, she hasn't been paying attention to the anime, and not because she didn't want to.
The image of Alan walking in with another girl has been stuck in her mind and she can't seem to shake it off, and in as much as she tries to deny it; it broke her heart and it's still breaking her heart as she thinks of it. Sighing, she returned her gaze to the TV and tried to concentrate on it, but she just couldn't.
"Are you okay?" Jonathan asked all of a sudden and she looked at him in surprise, wondering why he is asking that out of nowhere.
"Why? Is anything wrong?" She questioned, forcing a fake smile on her face.
"Nothing really, you've just been sighing for as long as I can remember.

She looked around the room for any trace of him, but the room just stared back blankly at her, "was last night a dream?" She mumbled to herself, rubbing away the sleepiness from her eyes. "Could it be he's downstairs?" She asked as the morning of the day he brought them back ran through her mind, sighing, she decided to go check for herself and stepped out of the bed.

They both have been standing there for over 5 minutes now, and Andrew's patience was growing thin "I do not have the time, nor patience to just stand here with you and look at annoying children all day. So tell me why you called me here or I'll be on my way" Andrew said, turning his gaze to Amanda."Do you remember the one time we went to an amusement park, back home in Nigeria?" She asked after a brief moment of silence passed, without removing her gaze from the children, and Andrew just raised an eyebrow in surprise at her question.He was expecting anything but that kind of question "I didn't know you brought me here to reminisce on our childhood" he said in a bored tone, his gaze fixed on her"Do you or do you not remember?"
