It's been two days since what happened between me and Freen after the awards ceremony as everything seem to went back to normal although I'm a little more aware of everything that she does now but it doesn't matter because I've been at the other apartment making sure that everything is perfect. I wanted Freen's family to be comfortable here when I picked them up which would be right now as I held up a sign with the words 'Welcome Sarocha' in red letters. I waited awhile as the passengers come from baggage claim when I see a little boy no older than six with white hair and blue eyes filled with similar innocence that Freen has in hers followed by a much taller man who looks he's seen things and life has wore him down. He has this fatherly feel to him with his combed black hair and blue eyes as he looks at me before gesturing to me to the boy as they walked over to me with two small suitcases and I put down the sign.

"You must be Becky, correct?" The older man asked curious.

"Yes Sir, I'm Becky Armstrong and you must Mr. Chankimha" I said holding out my hand.

"I am and just call me Adgar. This is my son Heng" Adgar said shaking my hand.

"Hi Heng" I said smiling.

"Hi Becky, where's Freen?" Heng said looking for his sister.

"She's back at my apartment but don't worry, you'll see her soon enough. Lets get you guys settle in your new apartment first" I said smiling.

"Sounds good. How is Freen?" Adgar inquires.

"She's doing great but I'll let you be the judge of that" I said putting their suitcases in the trunk of my truck.

"Why did you not want her to know that we were coming? What are you getting out of this?" Adgar asked raising an eyebrow.

"Knowing that Freen will be a lot happier with her family being in the same country as her. I want her to happy because I care about your daughter, Sir" I said driving towards the apartment.

"You're different than I imagined you to be" Adgar said chuckling slightly.

"What do you mean?" I asked confused.

"When you wrote to us saying that you wanted to move us to the States, I thought that it was just some cruel joke that you were plotting but when the tickets arrived, I was more than shocked but I do apologize for being suspicious of your intentions, Becky" Adgar said apologetically.

"It's okay. Having been receiving the money that was promised?" I asked curious

"Yes, we did the money and there's no way that we will be able to repay you for all that you have done for us" Adgar said smiling kindly.

"No problem and you don't need to me. I want you guys to come to me if you need anything else" I said smiling.

The drive to the apartment wasn't long as we get out of the truck, taking the suitcases out of the trunk before walking up one flight of stairs and by the time that we reached the top, Adgar was slightly out of breath. When I asked him if he was okay, he waves me off as we walked to the third door on the left and I opened it with the key that I received from the landlord yesterday. I allowed Adgar and Heng to enter first, turning the lights on to reveal a spacious living room with beige carpet, black leather couches and a recliner which Adgar sits in, and a large plasma screen TV over a small fire place. There's a PS4 hooked up to the TV for Heng to play with when I teach him how to play it with a few games on top of it, the kitchen has stainless stain appliances and a fully stocked refrigerator, the bedroom was decorated to everyone's age. I hear Heng running around the apartment, looking and touching everything in sight as I sit down one of the couches in front of Adgar who looks slightly overwhelmed with everything.
