Chapter 83 Lucas' Present

From Emily's POV. That night, we enjoyed ourselves from the bathroom to the couch and back. The tidy room was in a mess after all we did. We didn't clean up and fell asleep in each other's arms. Until there was a knock on the door. Wearing a bathrobe, Owen went to open the door, while I continued to lie on the bed. As I was about to turn over and continue sleeping, I heard a voice calling out, "Mom... Mom..." I thought I heard it wrong, but I sobered up in seconds when I saw a small figure at the door. I immediately shot up from the bed and put on my night robe. "Lucas!" The little fellow turned to look at me, taking little baby steps and running towards me. "Mom..." I ran up for a hug. Lucas was initially excited, but when I hugged him, I heard him crying as he muttered, "Mom, I missed you so much. Where did you go... Boohoo..." The little fellow's eyes were bloodshot, it was all the more pitiful.
