After Years -Liskook ✓

The next day started with the sun shining brightly. It was finally getting warmer and warmer each day.

The 24-year-old young lady got woken up by someone kissing her all over her face. And in terms of the size of the person, she knew it would be her daughter.
"Baby, let mommy sleep please"

Instead of stopping her actions, the little girl jumped on her mother's lap and laid her small body on her mother's.
"Mommy, wake up. Let's got to grandpa and grandma"

Lisa opened her eyes for a few milliseconds and closed them again immediately. The young woman loves sleeping, but well, who doesn't?

Achara ignored her mother and went downstairs wearing her cute bunny pyjamas. When she was about to go to the kitchen, her eyes landed on the two women sitting on the couches and talking. More like whispering.

She walked closer to them and shouted with her cute kids' accent.
"Grandma, grandma Jeon?"

It didn't take long for Mrs. Jeon to pull the girl into her arms just like real grandparents would do.

"I missed you, Achara. And that's why I came early to spend a lot of time with you"

Mrs. Manoban looked at her sister and her granddaughter laughing and talking.

"aunt Jisoo?"
Another female voice asked.

Lisa came closer to the three, wearing simple grey sweatpants and a t-shirt with a cat in the middle of it.

"Good morning Lisa"

"Good morning auntie, good morning mom and good morning baby"

"Me and your aunt Jisoo want to spend time with Achara today"
Lisa's mother said and smiled at her a little.

Lisa was a bit confused thinking why everyone is wanting to spend time with her daughter and not letting them do something alone. But the way she saw her daughter's lips curved up because of her grandma's words, she couldn't say anything.

Lisa nodded her head a little bit and thought about something she could do when they're not there.

'I'll just go to the restaurant and help dad'

More than 2 hours passed, but no one came home. Not the two women and the small girl and not even that girl's mother.

Lisa was busy taking costumers' orders and cooking sometimes, that she forgot the time.

Meanwhile at the other two women and the little girl's side, they were laughing and talking happily.

Their day started and was about to end with full happiness only.

The sisters looked at each other and mouthed some words to each other that only they understood.

"Achara, let's sit here so you can eat your ice cream"

The three made their way to the only brown bench near the ice cream track and sat there, resting from all the walking.

"Grandma?"
The girl's grandmother and her sister looked at her and waited for her to continue speaking.
"Is mommy going to get married?"

A quick eye contact was shared between the sisters as she asked this question. How did she know?

Mrs. Manoban chucked awkwardly and thought about something she could make her believe.
"Uhm...n-no baby. Who told you so?"

"I heard you and mommy talking about it, grandma"
Her grandma looked at her with her soft eyes. How could she lie to her granddaughter, while she is only asking her a simple question that she would know about soon anyways?

"Yes Achara, your mom is going to get married" Achara and Mrs. Manoban turned their head to the right side—to Mrs. Jeon's side—and opened their eyes widely.

It took Achara long to notice the melting chocolate ice cream she was holding. Why was she feeling something strange now? A feeling she didn't like.

Their day ended with Achara being silent the whole time after their small conversation and Mrs. Manoban asking her sister why she told that to her. Mrs. Joen's answer was coming to her mind over and over again, that she got silent too.

"Achara is only five years old, but she can see and feel what is going on. You don't want to tell her about her mom's marriage, because you think she's still small, but she's going to see her mom someday soon in that white dress while questioning herself why she didn't know anything about it. Tell her now before it's late"

"Mommy?"
Once Lisa heard that cute voice, she turned around and was ready to open her arms wide for the little girl to hug her tightly.

Achara was only some hours away from her, but she missed her like it's been hundred days.

"What did you do with your grandmas?"

"we just played and ate ice cream"

Lisa only nodded her head and prepared something for her daughter to eat.

"Mommy, this is so delicious"
Achara munched on her meal and kept doing cute voices to make her mother giggle.

One hour passed and Lisa decided to leave her parents at 7:40 pm at the restaurant and go home with Achara because it was her bed time.

The whole ride was silent and awkward for Lisa. She kept looking at her daughter through the small mirror and she felt like her daughter had a bunch of questions that she kept inside her.

"Baby? What's wrong?"

Only then Achara came back to her senses and looked at her mother.

Lisa looked at her through the mirror again and smiled at her with her big and sweet smile.

The roads were empty and scary.
Lisa was feeling a little strange ever since she woke up, but shrugged off her thoughts about something bad happening and hoped for the best.

"Mommy look at the road"

The only things to be heard next were Achara and Lisa's screams and the sound of two cars crashing.
