At first, Andrea seemed skeptical. She raised an eyebrow and looked at him as if she didn't quite believe him. But just as doubt was about to take over, she noticed a little kid playing in the playground nearby. The child had a tiny ukulele in hand, strumming it with enthusiasm.

Without hesitation, D'Andre sprang into action. He swiftly borrowed the ukulele from the young musician, who was more than happy to share. With the ukulele in hand, D'Andre ran back to where Andrea was now swinging on the playground.

Kneeling beside her, he began to strum the ukulele's strings, creating a sweet, melodic tune. Then, with a warm smile, he started to sing. His voice was like a gentle breeze, carrying a heartfelt song that seemed to reach straight into Andrea's soul.

Andrea's eyes lit up with wonder and delight as she listened to D'Andre's unexpected serenade. Her skepticism vanished, replaced by sheer joy. She couldn't believe that this new friend of hers possessed such a beautiful voice.

    The room seemed to close in on D'Andre as he contemplated the tangled web of secrets and half-truths he'd unwittingly woven. His friends' scrutiny, the weight of their suspicions, and the potential consequences of his actions swirled around him, leaving him with a sinking feeling in the pit of his stomach."See, see, always with the 'see.' When are you all going to stop talking at the same time?" D'Andre retorted, his voice tinged with a hint of exasperation. He leaned back in his swivel chair, undoing the buttons on his sleeves as his racing pulse gradually steadied."When you stop your nonsense," Castor replied, his brows furrowing as he shot a pointed look at D'Andre."Nonsense? Nonsense like being with my daughter?" D'Andre shot back, his eyes narrowing as he gazed at his friends."I don't know. But it might be better if you and Maiari sort things out," Castor suggested, tapping his fingers rhythmically on the edge of the table."What about us? She's the one who left me, remember?

"Maiari, you really need to duplicate that key. It's not the first time this has happened."Aunt Daisy nodded in agreement. "He's right, dear. You always forget. Maybe it's time you make that duplicate key."Maiari sighed, realizing that she had been procrastinating on this task for far too long. "I hope I remember to do it this time. I've just been so busy lately."With that, she excused herself once more and made her way back to Andrea's room. She hoped that her daughter was fine and that this little incident would remind her to prioritize making that spare key. Reaching the locked door, Maiari took a deep breath and used another key to open it, relieved to find Andrea inside, sleeping sound.She
