Everyone seemed to be inside the mall that afternoon. With the end-of-year dance approaching, the place was crowded with students shopping for clothes, accessories, shoes, and whatever else they needed for the big night. Some were scattered across different stores, while others had gathered in restaurants to take a break from shopping.
Faye was among those enjoying a break.
She sat comfortably in a restaurant booth with a burger and a generous serving of chips in front of her. Her children were safely at the cottage with her brother, Eriko, and the other kids, leaving her with some much-needed time to herself.
Princess sat beside her, enjoying a coconut cream pie, while Beam occupied the opposite seat with a large slice of pizza.
Faye was halfway through her burger when she noticed a spot of cream on Princess's cheek.
"Hey babe, you got something here."
"Where?"
