Seeing the sadness in Laura's eyes, Aurora quickly changed the subject. She looked at the twins who were currently arguing about something. Nathan and Nafla, Laura and Aryan's 7-year-old twins, always stole the spotlight whenever they gathered. Although they were born from the same womb and at the same time, it didn't mean they always got along. On the contrary, there was never a day without them quarreling.

With sleepy eyes, she raised both hands to tidy her tousled hair. Unconsciously, the blanket covering Aurora slipped, and Dave's hazel eyes became hazy once again. "Hurry, put on your clothes before our little one asks for more!" Dave said, trying to divert his attention from the enticing view before him.

They talked about various topics as women often do. It seemed they never ran out of things to discuss. They began with the amusing antics of the toddlers and then moved on to favorite movies, eventually leading to conversations about how besotted their husbands were."Ra, are you sure you want to be a stay-at-home mom?" Arabella raised an incredulous eyebrow when her sister expressed her desire."Yes, Arabella, I've decided to leave the modeling world. I want to focus on my boutique.
