"PIERCE!" Snow jumped out of her seat and ran to the person behind me. | suddenly felt my hands getting cold
and sweaty after hearing Pierce's voice behind me. When he went to my side, he's already carrying Snow.

God! Please, Snow, sweetie. Don't say anything about him being your daddy...
"Pierce, can | call you daddy?"

"Then where is he? He promised to spend the weekend with us."
"He just saw someone he knows."
Mom's forehead creased. She doesn't believebut | don't have any intention to tell her where Pierce is.
Kelly didn't tellabout Snow's real father but | can feel it, in my heart, that she's my niece. It was just Pierce
who couldn't tell. He's still so dumb even after so many years. | can't believe him.

carrying Snow and at the counter, changing tokens was Kelly.
"Who's that kid?" Mom couldn't see Snow's face.
"Mom, let's go."
"Phoebe, that's your brother. Whose kid is with him?"
"Let him be, mom. He's old enough to decide for himself."
