Lilly slowed down when she was about to pounce on Bettany, and she hugged her. She said, “Granny! I am back!” with joy.
Bettany teared up immediately, “Granny misses you!” She patted Lilly’s head and asked, “Have you been taking good care of yourself? Are you hurt anywhere?” She noticed Lilly had grown up; she looked plump and healthy, but she was still worried about her.
Lilly shook her head and said, “I am all good, granny! Look at me!” She stretched out her arm.
Bettany stared at her gently. You are finally home. Even though it took you longer than last time, I am glad you are back safe and sound.
“How about your father?” Bettany asked. Everyone knew Blake was powerful, and they subconsciously weren’t that worried about him.
Lilly replied, “Daddy and mummy are sleeping down there.”
Bettany exclaimed with disbelief, “Oh no! Your father…” Did he die? Jean had already passed away, and Lilly claimed that they were sleeping together. It means they were buried together! Bettany didn’t know how to react now. She was overjoyed when Lilly was back, but now she was depressed. Hugh embraced her shoulders, saying, “This is life… We can only accept it.”
Lilly quickly said, “It was a misunderstanding! Daddy is alive! He is not dead! We met Mummy, and we had a barbecue together!”
Bettany and Hugh were both puzzled as soon as Lilly finished talking. Alive. Met mummy. And barbecue. They can actually barbecue underground. Bettany said blankly, “Alright, glad to hear that. Barbecue is not bad, I guess.”Content bel0ngs to Nôvel(D)r/a/ma.Org.
Josh ran down the stairs in slippers, while Hannah rushed out without her shoes. Josh said in surprise, “Lils is back! Let’s suspend my invention!” Hannah yelled happily, “Lilly is back! Let’s stop doing homework!” Drake followed after Hannah; he was about to lecture Hannah.
He witnessed Josh and Hannah run up to hug Lilly. Lilly giggled while they squeezed her face and played with her hand. Drake was slightly startled and sad. Lilly had gotten taller. She left the house with lovely flower braids on her head, looking adorable. She now came back in a blue dress and a different hairstyle. He thought to himself, My sister has grown up. I hadn’t seen her for two years, and I didn’t get to witness her growth.
Josh said, “Lils, you have grown much taller!” He often laughed at Alban when he sent his sister to school every day. In fact, he was envious from the bottom of his heart. Instead of rarely seeing each other for a year or two, he hopes to grow up with Lilly and witness her growth too.
Lilly was in the underworld, and she didn’t think she had been gone for long. Two years in the mortal world were about half a year in the underworld. She comforted Josh, saying, “Josh, you should be proud of me! No one can experience this!”
Hannah nodded. “That’s right! I wanted to grow up in seconds, too! I am getting tired of all the homework!”
Lilly laughed, saying, “Hannah, why are you doing your homework every time I come back?”
Hannah sighed, “I have more homework now! Growing up isn’t fun at all!” She never expected to have more homework in the sixth grade. Everyone told her that she could relax when she got to middle school. They were lying! I knew the homework was twice as heavy as in elementary school! I wanted to grow up instantly, please! She didn’t understand the sorrow of the rest of the Crawford family; she envied Lilly for having such an ability.
Lilly asked, “Where is Zac?”
