Chapter 761: SMALLER THAN THIS!?Amber was not aware of this before, she thought she knew her children well. Maybe it was true for Daniel and Alia, but it didn't seem like the case with Kia.
How could she not even know her favorite food? Wasn't that the most basic thing?
But, if you think about it, Kia never complains or throws tantrums about whatever food she eats, she will eat whatever food is served to her.
And the only memory that Amber remembers about the child was when she moved in silence to clean the house and meet all the needs of the whole family. She even prepared breakfast, lunch and dinner for all of them.
Because at that time, Amber was so busy taking care of Alia who was sick, so indirectly, all things related to this household were carried out and taken over by Kia.
Since when did she do that? Amber didn't remember. It just happened and it was as if it had been determined that way.
If it were not for Kia who stepped in to help, it was certain that this family would be in chaos, because the work might seem light and meaningless, but of course it was a significant thing.
Amber soon came out of the room and walked around her house. This was the house she had lived in for decades, but she saw it in a new light now, as if she had just realized something she had never thought of before.
The photos in this house only contain Daniel and Alia, while Kia was very rarely in a photo. Even if she said she only had two children, people would believe it, because there was no trace of Kia in this house.
Amber suddenly stopped walking, her chest ached from discomfort at the thought. How could there be no trace of Kia in the house she had lived in for nineteen years? It was as if she had never been here.
"Mother? What are you doing?" asked Alia when she found her mother in the warehouse.
She just got home, but didn't find her mother anywhere and heard a noise from the direction of the store room, so she walked over here.
"Alia," Amber called. She was opening some boxes that were now covered in dust there. "Can you help me look for Kia's things?"
"Kia's things?" Alia asked as she approached her mother and knelt beside her. She frowned and covered her nose as the thick dust made it hard for her to breathe. "What items are you looking for?" she asked in surprise. She then moved a little away because she couldn't stand the flying dust, but it didn't seem to bother her mother at all.
"Anything," Amber answered quickly, opening the boxes one by one, but she didn't find any of Kia's belongings. She even found Daniel's toys, but nothing that of Kia's. Had she never bought her a toy?
Ah…
Amber just remembered that she didn't often buy Kia toys because Daniel had a lot of toys, therefore, Daniel's toys were passed down to Kia.
They were not that far apart in age and when Daniel was born, he and Lyle did spoil Daniel a bit and bought him something extra, because he was their first child and son in this family.
However, when Kia was born, Daniel's belongings were still there and could be used, therefore, they gave them to Kia.
There was no other purpose at the time, they just thought that it didn't matter at all and Kia was too young to protest or ask for anything. It was not that they were being negligent.
"Why couldn't I find any of Kia's stuff at all?" Amber muttered as she rummaged through the boxes there, annoyed that she couldn't find anything.
"Mother..." Alia called carefully because her mother was not like her usual self. "Mom and dad have already thrown away Kia's things." she reminded her mother because that was exactly what happened four years ago.
When they were so angry with Kia, they threw away her things and said that the child was no longer a child of the lyrant family and no longer talked about Kia.
Alia thought they'd only be like that for a while, but since they weren't discussing Kia anymore, it was like a tacit understanding had been solidified between them that the name shouldn't be discussed.
"Discarded?" Amber stopped pulling out other cardboards. Yes, she remembered that she and Lyle had thrown away Kia's things.
Even though the child's belongings were not much, and the toys when she was small were almost non-existent, they still threw them away…
"Mom, are you okay?" Alia asked, leaning closer to her mother. "Mom's clothes are dirty, let's go inside," Alia coaxed, she couldn't stand the dust flying around in this room, her breath became short.
With a sad look and a broken heart, Amber followed Alia back into the house and cleaned herself up.
"Alia," Amber called again. "Do you have any family photos on your laptop?" she asked hopefully. "Could you collect Kia's photos?"
Amber had collected the photos on her computer and cell phone, but the numbers were truly alarming. Even if they were all printed, they wouldn't make up one album.
After all, they were photographs of years.
"That…" Alia sounded doubtful, she wanted to tell the truth, but she couldn't when she saw her mother's pleading eyes. "I'll try to find it."
Alia didn't think she had a lot of photos with Kia either. She didn't remember that she had ever had a photo with Kia…
But, she didn't want to see her mother disappointed...
=======================
And just as Misha said that he would return to the apartment, he came back after she bought some food and some toys for Mika.
Mika's facial expression when she saw the new doll that Misha had bought made him want to give a toy shop to him daughter.
But, if he did that, Kia would kick him out of this apartment without a second thought, so he gave up his intention.
"I really don't know how to deal with you anymore," Kia said tiredly. She who initially refused Misha's arrival, now could only remain silent because she was tired of this man's persistence. She just found out that Misha could be this persistent if he wanted to.
"You don't have to face me, you just have to accept me," Misha said in a low voice, as he played with Mika and her new dolls, while Kia made food for Mika because the food Misha bought wasn't suitable for her.
Mika had some allergies and she had to pay attention to the food, so this time it would be much safer if Kia made the food herself.
"That man won't come again, will he?" Misha asked in a cold voice, staring at the front door as if Ben would walk in at any moment.
"Seeing you are here, Keira must be staying at her fiancé's place, after all they are busy planning a wedding," replied Kia from the kitchen.
Kia was surprised by this situation, why was Misha actually here? He was seen sitting casually in the living room while holding Mika on his lap who kept on chattering asking many things and even more strange because Misha took every word she said seriously.
"Marriage?" Misha's voice rose slightly, but then he controlled himself and spoke even more quietly. "After getting married, they don't plan on living here, do they?"
Misha would flip out if Kia's answer was 'yes'. There was no way he would let a foreign man be under the same roof with his daughter. He'd heard a lot about crimes against children, which he didn't really care much about before.
And it was undeniable that it had been bothering Misha lately after he found out that he had a daughter himself.
Luckily, Kia's answer was exactly what he wanted to hear.
"No, Keira will move in with Ben later after they get married," Kia answered quietly. She had finished making meat stew for Mika and brought it to the living room, where the two of them were playing.
It was strange to see Misha Tordoff in a cheap apartment like this, sitting on the shabby carpet playing with a teddy bear with a small three year old child.
"Come here Mika," Kia said, sitting on the carpet too.
Obediently, Mika walked to Kia and then sat on her mother's lap hugging her teddy bear.
On the other hand, Misha slightly frowned. Just one word and Mika just walked away. The little girl didn't even look at him at all, even though they had been playing for quite a while.
"Does that mean you are going to stay here alone with Mika?" Misha asked in a low voice. He looked at Kia who was patiently feeding Mika.
"No, I will move and find a smaller apartment for both of us," Kia replied without looking at Misha's face.
"A smaller place than this?!" Misha exclaimed. He didn't realize that his voice surprised Mika, but this time he didn't pay attention to it, because he was too upset when he heard what Kia said. "Where would you find a smaller place than this? In the rabbit hole?!"
This was the smallest apartment he had ever been to and now Kia was saying that she would be looking for an even smaller apartment than this?!
What kind of place would she be living in the future?!
