” Fine, where are you coming from?”.
“Um, Nina and I went to Aurora’s gave to see her”. he said and Alex scoffed.” Why did you scoff?”.
“Are seriously asking me that, for goodness sake, you and Nina should stop going to that grave claiming to be Aurora’s. That body laid there is not my Aurora”. he said and Richard sighed.
” Alex–“.he got interrupted.
“Don’t Richard”. He said. ” By the way, how is Nina and the baby?”.
“They are fine and guess what?”.

” Babe! Where are you?”.Richard voices out from the living room “I got you some cookies “. he said.
” You are back?”. She moved to him and Richard caressed her in his arms and then they pulled away from each other.
“Where you crying?”. He asked seeing her teary eyes.
” Um, not really”.
“Hmm, where you talking to Aurora’s photo again?”.
” Yeah, is the only thing that keeps me company when you are not around, and since I stop going to work”. Nina said.
“Yeah, if that is what makes you happy, no problem”. he smiled and kissed her.
” How is Alex? I heard he is back in the office?”.
“Yeah, he is still the same with no cheerfulness, just hope things become normal again”. he said and they left to sit down at the dining as they started eating the cookies.” Do you know, he said something weird today”.
