My little pumpkin You don't know how much your aunt missed you, now come here and hug me. Are you fine living alone? Don't you feel scared? Do you have a boyfriend? What about friends? How many friends do you have? What about your neighbours-are they even nice? Do you talk to them?

'Honey, aren't you investigating a little too much?" The aunt's husband asked while hugging Jeimi.

"Hey, Uncle James, thanks for saving me from her questions," Jeimi said, which made everyone laugh.

James, I should know what my baby is up to. Aunt elbowed Uncle James.

"Okay, okay, Aunt Lily, let's sit and eat first, and I'll answer all your questions," Jeimi said while pointing at the dining table.

"Time passes quickly, I'm happy we met after so long. "Whenever you want to visit, you can come back to our home, you know that, right? Aunt Lily says this to Jeimi while she hugs her tightly.

Let's go, Honey, we shouldn't disturb her any more, she needs to go to college tomorrow as well. Uncle informed Aunty

Uncle said to Jeimi while whispering in her ear, "Kidoo." I saw you working at the supermarket nearby, if you need money, ask us instead of working, okay? I won't tell this to your aunt, or she'll start crying. If you treat your aunt as your mom, treat me as a father. You can ask me anything or tell me how much money you need, and I'll transfer it to you right away. You don't need to be hard on yourself. I love you as my child "because you are my child.'

Jeimi smiled and hugged her uncle, as she used to think her uncle wouldn't like her and that she was a burden to him. She responded that she didn't need money and that all she wanted was to keep her aunt happy.

The second they left the building, Jeimi got a notification stating that $10000 had been transferred to her bank. Jeimi's uncle transferred her money. She was about to transfer it back when she received another message, this time from her uncle. The text read Dear Jeimi, I know you will transfer it back, but I would say take it if you believe me as your father. Your aunt loves you with her whole heart, and so do I. Just take the money and go buy yourself good food and clothes. Ask for more if you need them, don't hesitate- love Uncle James.

Jeimi just accepted the money and decided to return it once she starts earning.
