The little one tilted her head up, gazing eagerly at Kieran. Her tiny hands gently tugged at his clothes.
"Kieran, when are we going back?"
Kieran Russell looked down at her and raised a hand to rub her little head. "What's wrong? Miss your dad?"
Ruby Rowland pursed her lips and gave a shy, gentle nod. She just wanted to go back and wait for her dad to get off work.
Kieran held his terminal up in front of her eyes. Displayed clearly on the screen were his chat messages with Shawn Russell.

The photo was taken at the starry ocean when Ruby touched foreheads with a giant blue fish. The scene was beautiful and heartwarming.
Kieran: I brought my little cousin out to play. Uncle Shawn, are you coming back tonight?
Uncle Shawn: I have things to handle tonight, so I won't be back. Take her out and have a good time.
Although Ruby felt a bit disappointed after reading the exchange, she was very sensible and didn't press the matter.
