"WONDERFUL GOODNIGHT"

After a long and tiring day, Marius and I finally arrived home. As we entered the house, I immediately felt exhausted. It felt like every second was passing by slowly as we climbed up the stairs towards our room. But all my fatigue seemed to wash away as soon as I saw MJ. I found her in the spacious living room of the house with Manang Sela busy watching TV.

I quickly glanced at a beautiful old grandfather's clock in the corner of the large living room. It was just past six. Perfect timing for dinner preparation.

"Manang Sela, I will prepare dinner for us," I told her.

She shook her head in succession. "It's done. I have already cooked. But I have already eaten as well. I took advantage of the opportunity while this handsome one was asleep earlier," she said, looking at my child in the stroller who was wide awake.

"Thank you, Manang Sela," I said, a wave of gratitude washing over me.

She looked at me with a knowing smile. "I understand everything, Sam. And I am happy to see you happy.
