Keilani felt a wave of embarrassment wash over her.

At lunch, Jennie asked Tyrone if he could take her shopping later this afternoon. Tyrone readily agreed.

This sparked an idea in Keilani's mind.

After lunch, Tyrone lingered briefly. He then gestured to Jennie, stood up, and addressed Wanda, “Grandma, I'm going to take Jennie out for a bit. We'll come and visit you again in a few days."

"Sure, go have fun," Wanda responded with a nod.

No sooner had Wanda finished speaking than Keilani rose to her feet.

"I wasn't sure what Jennie would like, so I didn't bring her a gift.

How about I join you at the mall? I'll buy her anything she wants."

“Keilani, thanks for being so nice. That's won't be necessary."

Tyrone gazed at Keilani, his eyes carrying a subtle warning.

Maybe it was Tyrone's stern look that made Keilani start to speak, then stop short.

Tyrone took Jennie to a big mall downtown. There was this massive children's park in the basement.

Jennie, still a kid, loved the amusement park. She played there for almost an hour.

When Jennie was exhausted from playing, Tyrone led her to a stall and got her some drink.

The stall was packed, mostly with young girls. People kept sneaking peeks at Tyrone.

A girl nudged her friend, whispering, “See that guy over there? He's really good-looking."

Her friend stole a glance at Tyrone, spotting Jennie with him. She murmured, "Too bad he's got a kid. Otherwise, I would've hit him up on Facebook!"

"He's dashing and excellent with kids. That's wonderful. Unlike my boyfriend, who's constantly gaming."

Soon, it was Tyrone's turn to fetch the drink. Tyrone strolled over, picked up the drink, slipped a straw into it, and handed it to Jennie.

Jennie grabbed the drink, sipping it cautiously. After she had consumed about half, she started to blow bubbles into the drink.
