"Alright, I won''t see you off, then. It''s snowing, so be careful of your safety when driving," Wanda


    reminded.


    Luca''s nose started to feel tingly. Wanda took care of her before she got married in Japan, and she did


    a better job taking care of her than anyone else. She realized that time and tide waited for no man as


    she saw the gray hair on her temples. The young ones were starting to grow old too.


    She had no way of repaying Wanda for all that she did for her in the past.


    "Okay, it''s cold. You should go in," said Luca as she looked down and walked out of the gate.


    When she returned to her car, she did not have the time to get all sentimental as the three little children


    were waiting for her to pick them up.


    Luca drove off to pick up Lanie and the others.


    The sses that Old Master Crawford enrolled them in were the best in A City, so the three children


    had sses in separate locations.


    Luca would first pick up Lanie and Rainie, then she would go pick up Tommy.


    The moment Tommy got into the car, he keptining about how boring the calligraphy ss was.


    After learning that Lanie and Rainie''s extra-curricr sses were fun, he pouted and said, "Brother,


    come with me to tell Great-grandpa that I want to go to the same ss with you."


    Lanie shook his head coolly and refused. "You''re too young. It''s not suitable for you."


    "Why?" Tommy stared at him with his big round eyes. He hated calligraphy.


    "Because you can''t sit still." Lanie patted his brother''s head and stated, "There must be a reason why


    Great-grandpa wants you to learn calligraphy."


    "The reason would be to bore me to death," Tommy said mercilessly. Then, he looked at Luca with his


    big innocent sparkling eyes. "Ms. Luca, why don''t you talk to Great-grandpa?"


    "I think it''s good that you''re learning calligraphy. Didn''t you say that you envied your dad''s neat


    handwriting?" said Luca as she remembered everything the children had said before.


    "Right, Daddy''s handwriting is very nice." There was admiration in Tommy''s voice when he mentioned


    Luke.


    "Great-grandpa sent Daddy to learn calligraphy since he was little. Brother, if you want to have nice


    handwriting, you have to practice calligraphy. That way, your handwriting will look as good as Daddy''s,"


    said Lanie as he smoothly continued Luca''s words.


    Tommy''s eyes widened. "Why did Great-grandpa never tell me this before?"


    “He said it in the past. Back then, we lived with Great-grandpa," said Lanie. When Luke was busy and


    during the time before their mother returned, they were put under Old Master Crawford''s care.


    Old Master Crawford would often talk about Luke in front of them, so they naturally knew more about


    him than Tommy.


    "I also remember that Great-grandpa said that Daddy used to write sloppily like you. He fixed it after


    learning from a calligraphy teacher." Rainie nodded.


    Tommy frowned. He also wanted to write as nicely as Daddy, but calligraphy was too torturous for him.

    "But calligraphy is so boring. How did daddy do it?" he said.


    Lanie and Rainie looked at each other and giggled, then Luca replied, "As long as you have the desire


    to, you can learn to do well. If youin about calligraphy every day, how are you going to learn?"


    Tommy was determined all of a sudden. He waved his hand and said, "I must do a good job in


    calligraphy and write as beautifully as Daddy!"


    "Good luck, Brother." Rainie cheered for him, then she looked at Luca and said, "Ms. Luca, are you


    free tomorrow?"


    Luca nced at the child through the rearview mirror and shifted her focus to the road ahead again.


    "Yes, what is it?"


    "We have a small recital tomorrow, and it''s held at Star Carnival. Daddy happens to be away on a


    business trip, so can youe to see me perform, Ms. Luca?" said Rainie. All of her friends who


    learned dance with her said that their parents would go see their performance, so she wanted Luca to


    go too.


    Luke was far away, so she had no choice. However, she still had her mother, right?


    "Sure, I''ll send you there," Luca agreed in a heartbeat and thought of pushing back all of tomorrow''s


    ns.


    Research may be important, but her children were even more important.


    Although she could not be by their sides as their mother, she could still care for them.


    "Thank you, Ms. Luca." Rainie smiled sweetly as she was worried that she would get rejected at first.


    "I''m the one who should be thanking you for giving me the opportunity to see your beautiful dance,"


    said Luca yfully. She remembered that Rainie loved to dance when she was younger.


    She did not think that she would still like it three yearster.


    This interest of hers may apany her for life, which was a good thing.


    Rainie heard Luca''s words, and a big smile appeared on her face. She knew that their mom still loved


    them.


    After they got home, Luca parked the car, and the children could not wait to get down from the car.


    Tommy asked Luca, "Ms. Luca, did you prepare snacks for us?"


    Luca was stunned. If not for the incident at the Rayne family''s house, she would have prepared snacks


    for them for sure.


    Luca closed the car door and said to him apologetically, "I went out this afternoon, so I couldn''t prepare


    any. I''m sorry, Tommy."


    Tommy smiled and shook his head. "It''s okay, Ms. Luca. You didn''t promise to prepare snacks anyway."


    "I''ll go make dinner. You kids go y for a while. It''ll be done in a bit," said Luca. The kids had finished


    their school homeworkst night, so other than the extra-curricr sses, they could do whatever


    they want on the weekends.


    "Then I''ll go practice calligraphy. Today, that old man, no, the teacher gave us homework. He said that


    we need to write two full pages and turn them in when we go tomorrow," said Tommy as he hopped into


    the house.


    Rainie and Lanie also followed him in.


    After Luca walked into the house and took off her jacket, she walked into the kitchen to see that Aunt


    Neile was already busy in the kitchen. As Luca instructed, she did not prepare the dishes but just


    washed all the vegetables.


    "Ms. Craw, you''re back," Aunt Neile greeted her.


    Luca nodded and looked at the vegetables Aunt Neile washed. She thought about it for a moment and


    knew what she was going to make for the kids. She put on the apron and started preparing dinner for


    the kids.


    Aunt Neile stood aside to assist her.


    Upstairs.


    Rainie took several tutus and walked to Lanie''s room in distress. "Lanie, can you help me pick a tutu?"


    Lanie put down his book. He looked at her and asked, "Is it for tomorrow''s performance?"


    "Yes, and I don''t know what to wear." Rainie looked at the tutus and scratched her head.


    "Aren''t they all the same?" Lanie looked at them. They were all white tutus. What was the difference?


    "Of course, they''re not the same. Look, the styles and the lengths are different." Rainie ced the tutus


    on the bed. "Lanie, help me choose now."


    "Aren''t you supposed to wear the same clothes as the rest for the performance? Why are you trying to


    stand out?" Lanie looked at each tutu and had no idea which one to choose. Plus, was this not a girl


    thing? Why did he have to pick?
