1939 Reunited at Last
-Silence-
.
No one uttered a single word when staring at both women who could honestly pass as Twins. If Landon was allowing this woman to show up, it meant she wasn't wearing any fake masks and her identity should definitely be confirmed. Pak! Someone accidentally shattered a glass, finding the situation too insane. Even Mother Kim, Mother Winnie, Gary's wife and several others living in Baymard, were unfounded at her Landon's operation. What sort of movie scene was this? A blast from the past? Luscious on the other hand, had heard of Amber's not-so-dead situation. In the far, far, distant past, don't forget that Lucius had also seen and communicated with this woman once or thrice in greeting, before her 'untimely death' and Lucy's acceptance into Landon's family as a servant girl in the Arcadinian palace. Mother Kim also saw her once or twice too, especially when the Baron (Lucy's father), would bring her to the palace to attend celebrations. A ghost in the flesh. What sort of shock does one's body and mind take on when finally coming to terms with teg news? "It's her…" Mother Kim mumbled. "It's definitely her." The woman's aura and her overall demeanor was one that was quite hard to imitate. One look at Amber now, and Mother Kim just knew it was her. Mother Kim's hairs stood alert, but the joy on her face was quite evident. Not all ghosts are those one wishes to run away from. .
1… 2… 3…
Time stood frozen in place, with both women standing still as rocks. However, their eyes were moist, and Lucy was the first to dart out to Amber with a waterfall of water gushing out her eyes. "Mom!!!" Lucy's voice broke out several octaves higher than usual, as her voice degenerated into a childish whimper. She held Amber right, screaming the word mom ten times over. Wahhh~ Lucy was crying so hard like a baby, while Amber was rubbing her darling daughter's back soothingly. "My baby~..." Tear drops escaped Amber's eyes, as she thanked the heavens for letting her live this long to see this day. Guilt also welled up in her heart, knowing she should have visited her daughter sooner. It's just that she couldn't risk those witches or anyone else knowing she was alive. Her daughter… Her beautiful Lucy has grown up quite nicely. The reunion between the duo was so touching that several ladies felt their eyes moisten too. They were truly happy for Lucy. Khalea, Hulang and the rest of Amber's subordinates were also happy for their master and the little lady. And for a moment, the atmosphere was extremely touchy and sensitive, that is not until the twins who were playing with their friends far away, came rushing in with the children. They too were crying, but also seemed to say: Mom/Aunt, who made you cry? Who is bullying you here?
Pfft~
No one knows who started laughing, but soon, the sensitive atmosphere vanished and everyone was laughing and smiling warmly. Landon shook his head wryly when seeing his sons and their friends storming in with 'weapons,' ready for battle. So in their little minds, a blade of grass can kill the opponent who 'bullied' their mother/aunt? What do they want to do with the grass? Tickle their opponent to death? And you there with the teddy bear? What do you think it would do if Lucy was truly bullied?

Landon rolled his eyes heavenwards, grabbing the twins, placing them underneath his admit and bringing them closer. "You brats! This is your mother's mother… in other words, this is your Grandmother!... Yes, you have 2 grandmother's! Everyone does." Their expressions were amusing. First, their little white eyeballs widened, and their mouths then took O-shapes with their cute pink tongues visible for all to see. The boys stared at the woman's face, seeing that she looked too similar to their amazing mother. Amber's eyes glowed with love when staring at her grandsons. The more she stared, the more she liked them. "How cute… My grandsons are cute."
The twins who were praised, suddenly liked this new grandmother of theirs. Their ears turned red and their entire demeanor became shy. Hahahhahaha~
Amber laughed, kissing their cheeks, before stepping forward to ruffle the heads of their little friends down. "You all did well." Woooww! They liked their aunt's mother very much! She was so gentle and reminded them of their kind aunt Lucy. (^_^)
The world of children was simple enough. Lucy looked at her mother with a warm smile, introducing her to several people around the garden. And as lunch became, Lucy found that Amber was getting more and more familiar with Mother Kim, Yaya, and the ladies. Leaning on Landon's shoulders, Lucy felt true content in her heart. "Brother Landon… thank you." Thank you for making her the happiest woman alive. .
Well, as they say, all good things must come and go. In a flash, the long vacation period ended on Friday, but of course the weekend was still there for others. However, the weekend also came and went by in a twinkle. The stinging sun, the hummingbirds, the sun that stayed till 11PM at night, all signified that August was finally here! And in the heart of this joining and ever bright season, were the people living in Baymard, going about their days with bubbly smiles. "Mom, it says that we need a school bag, pens… pencils… Mom, it said HB, TL, AT or GH pencils! Mom, it has to be any one of these pencils!" "Dad, I'm a big man now. Do you really need to disgrace me so much? How can I still wear my hair this way? Dad, you're so old fashioned."
"Aunty! Aunty! I need a pair of black and white socks, a pair of towels, and a toothbrush." … All around the busy streets, one could find children shopping with their parents, holding lists and acting like adults. It was like looking at Harry Potter shopping with Hagrid through the busy Diagon Alley path. Children gathered by the glass windows, looking at the cool new school gears and materials showcased around. "Wicked! Check it out, it's the new Hockey Stick 1000! I hear Mosley Bail, the greatest Baymardian Hockey player, now uses it."
Awesome! Amazing! (^?^)
The First school semester was finally here.
