Arrested

"Aunt Xinyi, when will Mama Dada come back?" Chyou was getting restless. "Mama Dada promised we eat outside today and have fun!"

Xinyi pursed her lips. They were in Xiaosi and Caihong's room, playing and drawing together. Her heart tightened seeing her sad and waiting so impatiently. Chyou was all dressed up and eager for tonight's dinner. Xinyi didn't have the heart to say that the promise broke.

"Haha Mama Dada are planning a surprise for their angel Chyou."

Chyo beamed. "Surprise!"

"Yes," Xinyi whispered, "Don't tell them that I told you or they will get mad. It was supposed to be a surprise."

Chyou seriously nodded. "I won't!" 

Her excitement knew no bounds to realize that she would be getting gifts and surprises.

"I cannot wait, Aunt!" She giggled.

Xinyi smiled. She kissed her cheek. "Patience. Xiaosi and Caihong are busy with your gift, so please give them some time, okay?"

"En!"
