"I'll wait here for a bit."
Auntie Lana immediately went to make tea.
Rose Shaw sat for a while before a small figure came down from upstairs, a little piglet trotting closely at his heels.
"Hello, Ian."
"Auntie Rose," Ian Monroe called out politely.
He used to be terrified of Rose Shaw. But after meeting her a few more times and seeing how she was with his mom, he wasn't afraid anymore.
Even though he was young, he could tell who was good to his mom and who wasn't.
"Long time no see. You've gotten taller, and you've filled out a bit." Rose Shaw walked over and took Ian Monroe's small hand. "Auntie Rose brought you some presents. See if you like them."
Seeing Ian Monroe again this time, it was Rose Shaw who felt a little awkward.
'She really had no experience with children.'
Ian Monroe unwrapped the presents and nodded with a smile. "I like them a lot. Thank you, Auntie Rose."
"Your birthday is coming up soon. This is your birthday present from Auntie Rose."
