Chapitre 279: Not Every Was As It Seemed

"This is the place," Skylar said, looking up at the sign with a small smile.

"What was your mother like before?" I asked curiously as we stepped inside, and Skylar's smile faltered a bit.

"She was... difficult to deal with at times. She had high standards and expected everyone to meet them no matter what," Skylar explained, and I could hear the strain in her voice.

"I only expect what I know a person is capable of. You just don't like to do anything you don't want to," Titania said as she came and took my other arm. "If you are going to talk about me, at least include me in the conversation if you are going to do it right beside me."

I couldn't help but chuckle as I leaned down and kissed her on the cheek as we walked inside. "Sorry, Titania. I just wanted to learn more about you."

"Hmm, well, that is a touchy subject for my daughter," Titania said as we all started to look around the store at all the different shoes they had.
