Alex POV
Shirley suddenly approached me and asked for Jonas.
"Come to Mom, Honey," Shirley said.
"No!" Jonas refused. Instead, he hugged me even tighter. And I didn't mind at all.
"Let it go, Lady Mendes. I don't mind. He just wants to enjoy this moment," I said.
Everyone looked at me. They were probably surprised to see me so comfortable with a child. I was married for seven years and had no children.
"Jonas, come to Mom," Shirley tried once again.
"It's okay, Shirley." I wanted Shirley to understand.
Shirley looked at Jonas, who was hugging me as I carried him. I didn't think it was a big deal.
For almost an hour, the fireworks lit up the sky so beautifully. It was only eight o'clock. The beauty of the fireworks was wrapped in the full moon's light, which was so charming.
