Chapitre 144: CHAPTER 143

At Martin's house,

Marianna was making dinner for her and Dianna. Dianna comes into the kitchen and asks her where Uncle Martin is. Marianna puts the knife she was holding down. She doesn't know where Martin was. He was usually back by that time. He had not told her where he was going or that he would be late. She asks herself if he went out on a date.

Marianna clutches her hand. She thinks about the times that they have kissed each other. She is brought back from the reverie when Dianna clutches her hand and calls her mommy. She tells Dianna that he had a meeting and that's why he was late. Dianna says that she loves him and wants him to be her daddy. Marianna is stunned and left wide-eyed at those words. She kneels and hugs her daughter.
