Chapter 1994
Even amid the crowd, Wayne could clearly see the tear-streaked face of the young boy looking at him.
“Dad?” At that moment, Ivy tugged at Wayne’s hand.
Wayne quickly turned to her, then looked back to where the boy had been.
But the boy was gone.
“What’s up?” Rosalynn, who was leading the way, turned around when she realized Wayne and Ivy weren’t keeping

Wayne looked around, there was no sign of the boy.
“Nothing, must have been my imagination, Wayne replied, then laughed and looked down at his daughter. “Ivy, I

“Dad, you’ve been daydreaming a lot recently!” Ivy grumbled. “My teacher said we have to write a big essay about

“I sure did, honey. Mom and I were already planning on it. We’ll check with her later to see when she wants to go.”
“OK” Ivy let go of Wayne’s hand.
She bounced over to Rosalynn and wrapped her arms around her arm.

I’m not like that! I love both my mom and dad!” Ivy retorted.
Rosalynn laughed, slowed her pace, and waited for Wayne to catch up
Ivy was full of life. Seemingly inexhaustible, she walked a few steps with Rosalynn, then ran over to Calvin.
Without a word, Calvin lifted Ivy high into the air.
“Our daughter sure is a happy little girl, isn’t she?” Rosalynn remarked to Wayne, who nodded in agreement.
He then looked in the direction where he’d seen the boy.
“What’s up? You’ve been looking around like you’re searching for something,” Rosalynn noted.
7 thought I saw that boy earlier, Wayne confessed quietly I’m still worried about him. I’ll give him a call later.
“Alright.”
Rosalynn didn’t tell Wayne that she had sent Mike and a few others to the town they’d visited yesterday. They were
there to handle the fallout from Wayne’s altercation and to bring their car back. They were also tasked with finding
the boy and figuring out how they could help him.
It was a bit of a traffic jam when they reached Cory’s school.
By the time they arrived, Cory had been waiting at the door for a while.
Thankfully, his good friends hadn’t left.
Instead, they were all huddled around Cory, each with an iPad in hand, as he explained a problem to them.
Rosalynn saw this and decided to let them finish their problem before getting out of the car

When it came to Wayne, however, they became a bit more reserved.
Mr. Silverman did have quite an imposing presence, after all.
It was getting late, and the parents who were there to pick up their kids were waiting in their nearby cars.
After a brief conversation and saying their goodbyes, they all dispersed.
“Sorry for the wait, son. There was quite a bit of traffic today,” Rosalynn said as Ivy had already taken Cory’s
backpack. “Cory, next time we should have the car pick you up first. That way, I can play a bit longer!”
“No need,” Cory shook his head. “What if you got kidnapped?”
Rosalynn burst out laughing.
“How would I get kidnapped? I’m not that easy to fool!” Ivy protested.
“That’s why I said “what if’,” Cory paused. “It means there’s a one in ten thousand chance.”
Rosalynn listened to the conversation between the two kids.
She looked at Wayne.
Initially, she wanted to mention that Ivy was now taller than Cory.
However, she noticed that Wayne was lost in his thoughts.
