Charlotte's POV

It's been a couple of days since I've met Pichy, Isabella, and Sofia. The three of them are staying with Engfa. Olivia and I still go there every day, but we haven't been sleeping over. I still have so many questions, and Engfa has been answering all of them patiently.

I'm slowly starting to wrap my head around everything that has happened in the last couple of days. It's a lot, but I love Engfa, and I'm not going to let this break us. When Olivia and Sofia met, it might have been the cutest thing I've ever seen. They clicked right away and have been inseparable ever since.

Engfa called about an hour ago, and she and P'Sun are coming to pick up Olivia and me. Sofia and Olivia wanted to have a pool day. I'm packing our stuff for the day when I hear the doorbell. I hear my dad get up and go towards the door. I quickly zip up my bag, grab it, and leave my bedroom.

I walk to the front door, and my dad is standing next to Engfa, with Olivia, as always, in her arms.

My dad pats Engfa's shoulder and starts walking to the couch, "It's good to see you again, Ms. Waraha."

"Likewise," she replies.

It doesn't matter how many times I've asked him to call her by her first name; he still doesn't listen.

"Hey, sweetheart." I kiss her cheek, and she smiles. "Mommy, let's go," Olivia says, excitement written all over her face. I chuckle and quickly say bye to my dad. Engfa takes my bag, and we walk to her car.

"Hey, P'Sun." I wave at him. He's sitting in the back. He waves back and scoots over. Engfa buckles Olivia in and puts our stuff in the trunk. We both get in, and she starts driving.

"Cute eyes, I've been thinking, and if you're okay with it, do you want to go to Italy?" she asks.

I glance back at P'Sun and see he is too busy talking to Olivia. I bring my attention back to Engfa, and she glances at me.

"When?" I question.

"I was thinking when Isabella and Pichy go back, we can go with them. We don't have to stay for long, just a couple of days," she replies, and it's obvious she is a little nervous.

I take a deep breath and think about it for a second. There are pros and cons to this.

"Can Olivia come?"

"Of course, I want both of you to come."

"Um, okay. Yeah, sure, I would love to." I reply after a few seconds.

"Really?" she asks, surprised.

"Yeah, I want to see that other side of you too." I answer, and she grabs my hand and squeezes.

It doesn't take long for us to get to her house. She parks in front of her house, and we all get out. I move to open the back door and unbuckle Olivia, but Engfa's expression stops me.

"Isn't it too quiet?"

That quickly grabs P'Sun's attention, and she tells him something in Italian. He looks around and tries to look behind the trees. He stares for a few seconds, and then his whole expression changes to something cold.

He quickly reaches for the gun around his waist that's hidden by his shirt. Engfa stops him before he can.

"Don't," she whispers. "Where are Isabella and Pichy?"

"Inside," he answers.

"You remember what you promised me, right?" Engfa asks, and P'Sun nods slowly.

She nods and faces me. "Baby, can you unbuckle Olivia? Do it slowly, please."

"What's going on?" I ask, confused.
