Lisa's POV

Past 10 o clock in the morning when I went to the kitchen to make breakfast. I notice my mother was not home because if she were, I do not need to make breakfast, right? Anyway, I didn't make one but I prepare lunch instead. After I eat, I went back to my room to freshen up. I decided to sat on the living room and watch a few good movies since today is Sunday means I don't have anything to do.

I did not noticed the time and it's already four in the afternoon so I make my way to the kitchen to get some snacks and soda when I heard a clicked from the door and saw my mother entered with a bag in her hand? Where did she go? And... What's with the bag?

"Mom, where have you been? And.. what's that?" I asked but she just smiled at me.. what?!

She glanced at the door and said
"Come here now" and there I saw Jennie entered this time.

Oh. God.

How I missed her.

I ran towards her and embraced her tightly
"I missed you, lili" she said

"Shut up. I hate you" I hate you for not leaving my mind. For occupying my mind ever since you left two months ago

"Now, Lisa. Carry her bag upstairs and help her unpack" I totally forgot about my mom just right behind me. Ugh.

Wait.

"What's happening? Is she staying with us for the mean time?" So she still need to leave? No. Freaking. Hell. I'd let it happen

"No darling. I finally got the full custody of her. She'll be living with us, permanently" I exhaled a sigh of relief. Thank God

So after I help her fix and settle everything I went to the kitchen to help my mother. We had a conversation about sending me to school and find one for Jennie for the next day. Of course, I told her that there's a school near my school. I want her near me so if anything happens, I could reach her quickly.

After dinner, we went upstairs but as usual, I accompany her in her room 'cause I know she is a scared little kitten. I wonder if she's been like this when she was staying in the Child Care Facility

"When you were in the Child Facility, did you sleep alone?" I asked

"No. I had someone to accompany me every night" she answered and it made me frozen on the spot. I don't know what is this feeling but anyway

"Who was that?"

"One of the staffs. They knew I could not sleep without someone beside me" she saud and yawned.

Cute

"Okay, let's talk tomorrow. Now, sleep" I waited til she fell asleep and went to my room.

I don't know but I could not sleep. The conversation we had just now it makes me feel weird. It keeps on replaying in my mind. And before I fall asleep, I came up with a realisation that since the time she came into my life and stepped into that door... She was mine

And I will protect her.
