Together

Chapter 58

"I'm going to that shop!"

"I am going there!"

"Athy wants to see the limited edition!" a 22 year old young woman whines to her mother like a child.

"I want to buy a limited one too!" this time the whining one is a woman in her early 40s who has been blessed with two children but her beauty doesn't even fade over time.

The two women with beautiful faces were arguing because of the difference in opinion of those who wanted to visit different shops, one wanted to go to a clothing store and the other wanted to a bookstore. Of course you can guess who wants to go to those shops, right?

After a few minutes of arguing, finally Athanasia had to follow Diana in resignation. The problem is that if her mother is already in contact with clothes, then she will become the object of her grasping, yup, making her look like a doll whose clothes are changed constantly.

It's been almost half a day Diana dragged her to various boutiques and came out carrying several brown and black bags with famous brand logos in each of the shops. Athanasia lost all her strength when she finally sat in a shoe shop, Diana was chatting with the friendly shop staff choosing the right item for her daughter.

"Urgh ... so tiring." She put her handbag next to her seat and took out her phone, looking for the news that was trending at the moment. The rumors circulating about her have subsided, but that does not mean it has completely disappeared, replaced by Diana's current arrival and a mysterious woman who always accompanies her all day long.

"They're annoying," she muttered.

"Who is annoying?"

A sweet voice sounded from behind him and Athanasia glanced back, met the eyes of a pair of beautiful emerald eyes and brown hair elegantly bun upwards, the woman was smiling at her. "Aunt Penelope!" she called.

"Hi~" Penelope waved at her nephew then took a seat next to her, "Are you accompanying Diana shopping?" she asked.

They both turned their eyes to the figure of Diana who was chuckling, still busy with what she was doing, "Well... as you can see." Athanasia shrugged her shoulder and sighed in resignation, she smiled a little and supported her chin with one hand that was on her thigh.

"You know, your mother has been getting better since your return."

Athanasia was stunned by her sudden words, she was confused by the words, "What do you mean aunt?" Penelope looked straight at Athanasia, one hand gently stroking her cheek and her eyes cast a sad look, "Since she received the news of your disappearance she locked herself in the room, never even ate for days if we didn't force it."

"... really?"

Penelope nodded her head weakly, confirmed her question then lowered her head. "She was also rushed to the hospital because she was mentally weak and needed to be treated by a psychiatrist for several months, of course your father would always accompany her with Aither. But it can't be denied that her heart was very hurt when she thought of you." Her sad eyes seemed to stab into Athanasia's deepest heart, she didn't know how much sadness her mother and family were going through. On the one hand she is very happy because many people care for her, her heart warms up thinking about these people.

"Don't worry, aunt. I'm not going to leave you guys again," she assured.

"... I'm sorry suddenly telling me something sad in this situation."

"No problem, I want to thank you for telling us what happened in the last few years. Who are you here with, by the way?" Athanasia tilted her head.
