"Do you like it, sweetie?" Mother Harley asked.Valerie look at the dress that Mrs Harley is looking at. It is a blue off shoulder dress.
"Yeah, I like it. But it will suit Mary more." Valerie said.
"You don"t have to think about that brat, if you like it then we will buy it for you" Mother Harley said.
"I have to buy some dress for myself since I didn"t bring much." Valerie thought.
"Alright, but since we are buying something for me, we also have to buy something for Mary." Valerie said while she held Mrs. Harley"s hand.
"Why did we have to buy something for her since she have so many dresses in her closet." Mother Harley said.
Valerie giggled, she can see that Mother Harley is displeased and angry at Mary as she did not tell her about Valerie"s arrival.
"Please Aunt, please please." Valerie pleaded.Looking at the puppy looking sweet cute face of Valerie, Mother Harley cannot contain her smile to broke out.
"Ok." Mrs Harley said.
"Thank you, aunt." Valerie said.
The duo continued their shopping.
After they are done they went to home.
As they just enter the house, Valerie was engulfed in a big bear hug.
It is none other than Father Harley. Mr Harley and Mr Scott are childhood friends. When Valerie was found, they treat her like their own child.
And so Valerie and Mary are best friends.
They witnessed how she suffered those years. How she lost her memory.
The blank face of their sweet girl had terrified them. They never want to witness the same thing again. And so since then they treated her like she is still a little girl.
"Princess, how are you? Did you miss uncle? Why didn"t you tell me that you were coming. I would have gone to fetch you." Mr Harley said.
He took her hand gently and let her sit down on sofa as he sat beside her. He had a gentle look on his face.
"I am very good, Uncle. And I missed you so much too. Why didn"t you come to our house for so long? You know dad misses his best friend too, don"t you?" Valerie said.
She loves this family so much. They are like her second family to her. They are always there with her on her critical moments. Even when she distanced herself from everyone, they never thought about leaving her. Even though she is adopted, she is not the real blood related young Missy of Scott Enterprise. Never ever her adoptive parents let her realize that, they gave her their love, their attention and everything little things she asked for.
And this family supported her as well as give their love to her. She is really blessed to have such a wonderful life. When she thinks it like that her past horrible experience just became like a bad nightmare.
"You know that I am busy these past few days and have not been able to get a good rest so I fell ill and after taking a break I had to go to work for the absence. After I heard that you are back I took a leave for two days. In this two days we will have a vacation and will catch up with the time. I also misses your father. It"s been so long since we have a good chat. Now forget about your father. What do you want eat Princess. You must be exhausted from the shopping. Tell Uncle what you want to eat, I will personally cook it for you. I know you miss my cooking."Father Harley said.
He didn"t notice the jealousy faces of his family as he was having a good conversation with their baby Valerie.
