“ well I’m here now, sweetheart “
she smiles wrapping her arms tightly round her niece
“ you seriously need to stop growing, can’t have you being taller than me ! “
a giggle leaving her lips, she may just be the luckiest woman in the world.
“ maybe— just a tiny smidge. What was up with the grumpy face? Missing me ? “
she grins happily now finding her way to kissing his cheek gently
his face scrunches once again
before he just shakes his head ,
arms instinctively going around
her as she drew close.
“ you just love winding me up.
don’t you , sweetheart? ”
