peacefully. They looked exactly alike. They even have the ssleeping position and | love watching them.
However, the thing Kelly said has still been lingering in my mind. Tomorrow, Kelly will be discharged from the
hospital and she indirectly toldto go back to a life without her. | see she doesn't needanymore. It hurts
but I'm still thankful that she letstay here for a few months. She lettake care of her. She allowedto

A smile crept on my lips when | saw baby Snow's lips moving as if sucking. Chuckling, | held her small and soft
balled fists.
"I guess your mommy can handle the situation now," | whispered. "I will leave but not now. Maybe after a week. |

cry. My hands trembled when | touched her soft and delicate hands. | don't know. Maybe I'm sp in love with Kelly

My phone rang the stwe entered the house. Kelly sat on the couch, carrying baby Snow. | took my
phone out and looked at the caller. It's Lexi again.
Heaving a sigh, | went out of the house again and answered Lexi's call. "Hello-"

"Don't threatenlike that, Lexi. You can't scare me."
She laughed sarcastically. [You think | won't do it? Don't regret it, Pierce. Don't regret if I'm already a cold corpse
