Chapter 779: HOW THEY REMEMBERED HER



Chapter 779: HOW THEY REMEMBERED HER

Amber had heard that Kia was in a relationship with her senior and at that time, she didn\'t take it too seriously because at her age then, it was natural for her to date.         

But, for some reason, they broke up.     

Amber tried to recall why Kia ended the relationship, but she couldn\'t.     

No, Amber didn\'t even remember she ever asked why Kia broke up with that man, because she didn\'t think it was important, while she and their family had to survive in the midst of the economic crisis and Alia\'s huge hospital costs.     

She also had to take care of Alia in the morning, while Kia went to school until she came home. Then, she had to go back to work and when she came home, it would always be late and everyone would be fast asleep.     

It could be said that the two of them could have gone for weeks not talking to each other, due to their conflicting timings.     

Oh ... it turned out there was a thing like that ...     

Amber bit her lip, couldn\'t believe that she used to be so indifferent to Kia. In fact, it could be said that she did not know anything about her second child.     

"So what happened to that man?" Amber asked in a choked voice, she seemed to be holding back a deep sadness.     

Lately, she seemed to be digging deeper and looking back, to a place where they had mistreated her more badly than they could have ever imagined.     

"He cheated on Kia with her best friend, Arin. That was why Arin never came to the house again," said Alia.     

Lyle frowned. "Arin, that little friend?" he asked. He knew Arin\'s parents and he realized when Arin no longer came to their house and he said that Kia should be nicer to her little friend otherwise she would have no friends. He wanted her to be more cheerful.     

Lyle never knew that something like that happened…     

"Yes, that Arin." Alia confirmed this and it left them both quite surprised because as far as they knew, the relationship between the two was very close. They had been friends since childhood and had never been involved in a big fight.     

"Why didn\'t Kia ever say anything about it?" asked Amber in a bitter voice. She couldn\'t believe what she heard.     

Alia looked difficult when she had to answer the question. "Because you\'re busy," she answered in a low voice. "You guys are rarely home and I think Kia mentioned it in the passing that they weren\'t friends anymore."     

Lyle and Amber had no recollection of having that kind of conversation and again, they had never actually spoken to Kia.     

The conversation between them was merely exchanging a few words because Kia was a quiet child and didn\'t talk much, so it was difficult to find a topic of conversation with her, especially since they didn\'t try to communicate well with Kia either.     

It was like it had always been in their minds that Kia would be okay, because the kid never complained or made a big deal or expressed her likes or dislikes. They naturally thought everything was fine with Kia.     

It turned out that what happened was not that simple.     

But, why didn\'t they know anything about this at all? Did they not care that much about Kia?     

Somehow Lyle and Amber felt very uncomfortable when they heard this, not only uncomfortable because they just found out that Arin treated Kia so badly, but also uncomfortable because Kia never said anything about this until they thought everything was fine.     

"Kia tells you a lot, doesn\'t she?" Amber asked her youngest child, she approached Alia and sat beside her. "What else did Kia tell you?" This time she wanted to hear what Kia had to say and wanted to know how her daughter really felt at that moment.     

Alia tilted her head and then shook her head. "No. Kia never told me anything if I didn\'t ask first, even then she only answered briefly."     

"Then how do you know what happened?" Lyle refrained from interfering in this, but it seemed he couldn\'t do that because his curiosity was far greater than his pride.     

He still hadn\'t confessed his guilt to Kia back then and was still thinking that \'she shouldn\'t have done that\', but this time he couldn\'t help but ask.         

"I saw Kia\'s expression," said Alia lightly. "I spent a lot of time with Kia and she taught me a lot. It was also Kia who always put me to bed when I was little and told me stories."     

That was right, because of her work time, Amber would come home when they were all asleep and she knew when she came home, she would find the house tidy with not a single dirty plate, because Kia had taken care of everything, including their family dinner.     

Since what time did she do all that? Fifteen? Fourteen? Or maybe she started when she was younger than that age…     

Kia was about Alia\'s age when she took on such a huge responsibility for this family, almost as much as Amber and Lyle.     

"Then what would you two usually talk about?" Lyle asked again, this time he was more active in asking.     

"Not much," said Alia, trying to remember and it was true. After all these years, she could just summarize all the things Kia told her to be half an hour worth. Most things she knew were also because she relied on her own opinion based on what she observed from Kia\'s behavior, because she didn\'t have much to do.     

"Oh, I just met Jemmie and he was so brave. He asked about Kia and wanted to ask for her number." Alia remembered her original intention to tell her parents why she was upset.     

"Then? You didn\'t give Kia\'s number, did you?" asked Lyle, looking annoyed. How dare that impudent boy try to reconnect with Kia?     

He should have run in the opposite direction when he saw Alia. Were the boys now all that shameless?     

"Of course not," said Alia irritably. "I won\'t let him get in touch with Kia again or find out where she is."     

That was why Alia was annoyed with the shameless man, but what annoyed her even more was that she herself didn\'t know the phone number or where Kia lived, so when she told Jemmie she didn\'t know, she was telling the truth and not because she could teach him a lesson.     

"He ruined Kia\'s prom and since then, she doesn\'t want to come to any more parties." Alia pouted and leaned her back against the back of the chair. "Come to think of it, Kia never attended parties huh…" she mumbled, but it was loud enough for Lyle and Amber to hear it.     

What Alia said was true. It could be said that Kia never attended any parties when she was a teenager, not even her friends\' birthday parties because she had to look after Alia who was too sick to be taken away from home.     

That was right, if you think about it, apart from the last ninth birthday party they had, before Alia\'s birth, Kia had never been to any more parties.     

=======================      

"You look very beautiful, Kia," Keira gushed when she saw Kia\'s appearance in her party dress. It made her look very beautiful and elegant, very different from her previous appearance.     

Especially since she dyed her hair red. Although it was not really Keira\'s thing, it complimented the dress well, or maybe this dress complimented her hair.     

Whatever it was, Kia looked very charming.     

"I\'m sure there will be many men from the Tordoff family who will kneel before you and want you to be their girlfriend." Keira didn\'t stop praising Kia and Mika followed while looking at her mother like a devotee, the little girl seemed to have been stunned by what she saw now.     

"Stop that," Kia said, she felt that Keira had gone too far in praising her and now she had to stop this woman before she started being more unreasonable.     

"Okay, okay… I\'ll stop." Keira raised her hands and grinned at Kia with a smile full of pride, like a mother taking her child to their first prom.     

"Mama you are so beautiful, like a moon goddess, but with red hair," said Mika as she raised her hand, asking to be carried.     

"Oh, not you also…" Kia mumbled when she received a compliment from Mika, but her face brightened when she saw her daughter smiling so wide with her beautiful eyes sparkling with joy.     

But Keira stopped her and carried Mika instead. "You will wrinkle your clothes if you carry her," said Keira, she kissed Mika\'s chubby cheek who looked disappointed because Kia couldn\'t carry her. "Let\'s go out," Keira said excitedly. "I\'ll walk you to the car."     

For now, Misha was waiting in the car, because he had some business to finish. He was finishing it now with Richard\'s assistance.         

Because after all, he would be away for a week and not be in the office during the event, and neither would Kia.     

She even asked for compensation from Misha because she couldn\'t work as she had to go with him, which Misha gladly gave, too generous to say the least.     

\'I just want to ask for compensation for one week I don\'t work. I\'m not asking for money to buy a house,\' Kia said when Misha mentioned the amount he would give after she insisted.
