Chapter 34 - Mommy Luna (1/2)
Hero came home when the sun was already up, only to find his daughter throwing a tantrum early in the morning. She was yelling and crying at the top of her lungs while throwing everything that she could reach. Even his sister, Joanna, had a hard time making her calm down or listen to her.
”Brother, you're finally here. Please help me. Amber has been throwing a fit ever since we came home last night,” Joanna told him.
”What happened?” Hero asked. He was a little irritated that Amber was giving him problems when all he wanted to do was to take a quick nap before returning to Luna's side at the hospital.
”I don't know what happened, but when she woke up from her nap last night, she started crying and looking for Miss Jiang. I thought maybe she was missing her, but knowing that Miss Jiang has emergency situations to deal with, I didn't dare to give her a call which made your daughter upset,” His sister explained. So that was what happened.
After hearing Joanna's explanation, Hero sauntered towards his daughter's room and opened the door, only to be smacked on his face with her white bunny stuffed toy.
”Amber Li, ” Hero called out her name in a warning tone.
Amber instantly became alarmed. She hid under the covers of her blanket and continued to cry. She was missing her Aunty Luna and was worried about last night, but her daddy and Aunty Joanna wouldn't tell her what happened and where her Aunty Luna was.
Hero approached his daughter and gently pulled the blanket that was covering her. Amber glared at him when she saw his face. Daddy had taken Aunty Luna with him last night!
”If you don't stop crying at this instant, I won't bring you with me to see your Aunty Luna later. Didn't she tell you to listen to me and to your Aunty Joanna? What do you think she would say if I informed her what you did today?” Hero reminded her.
At those words, Amber stopped crying and sniffled. Such a meanie daddy she had. He had always known how to deal with her using her Aunty Luna. Her round eyes stared at her father in disbelief. Would he really bring her to where Aunty Luna was?
”I'm not lying, ” Hero said as if reading Little Amber's thoughts. He then turned his eyes to Joanna to say something. ”I'm getting married soon so I want you to make some preparations.”
”W-what?” Joanna gaped at her brother. Where was all this coming from? She didn't even see him date a woman since his wife died years ago. Wait, he did mention before that he was considering getting married again. Did that mean he already found a woman he could spend his life with? What would happen to Little Amber then?
