Chapitre 876: Adoption And Denial

Lying belly down on her bed with her iPad positioned in front of her, Kimberly smiled as Dawn materialized on the screen, a halo of messy curls framing her wide, curious eyes.

"Hi, mummy!" Dawn chirped, a burst of sunshine in a pink princess dress.

"Hey, my little princess! Do you miss Mama?" Kimberly cooed, her voice thick with the emotion.

"Yes!" Dawn nodded enthusiastically, bouncing in her booster seat.

One look of disapproval from her governess and she stopped bouncing and adjusted in her seat.

"How was your phone call with Jamal?" Kimberly asked, suspecting that the phone call with Jamal the previous day was the reason Dawn seemed so uncharacteristically excited.

Dawn launched into a detailed narration of their phone call and all Jamal had said about learning to ride a bike, her tiny voice punctuated by enthusiastic gestures. Kimberly listened patiently, her heart brimming with love.
