With a grateful smile, Elissa nodded.
A sudden surprise caught Hadley off guard. “What's with all these holiday gifts?”
“A lot of them, really?” Elissa, who was visually impaired, asked. “I'm not sure. Laney mentioned the sanatorium
handed them out.”
“Seems like the facility is really considerate,” Hadley said, casually examining the gifts with interest.
The gifts were strikingly similar to those Eric had recently sent her.
Could the sanatorium truly afford to give out such nice items?
Hadley’s brow furrowed as an inexplicable feeling washed over her.
“Hadley,” Elissa called out, now prepared to depart. “Ready to leave?”
“Absolutely,” Hadley responded, snapping out of her thoughts and moving to assist Elissa. “Let's head home.”
Hadley’s apartment offered a sanctuary of safety, unknown to Robin, ensuring a tranquil Christmas celebration.
On Christmas Eve, Joy awoke excitedly early in the morning, and Hadley dressed her in a festive red sweatshirt,
arranging her hair into cute twin buns. She even added a playful swipe of lipstick to Joy's forehead for a holiday
flourish.
“There, all set!” she announced with a smile.

Joy dashed to the mirror to see her reflection. “Wow, | look so pretty!”
Hadley laughed gently at her daughter's excitement.
“Haha.” Elissa chuckled. “Joy, you're absolutely adorable.”
Joy corrected her firmly as she said, “No, Elissa, I'm pretty!”
“Yes, of course!” Elissa quickly agreed, laughing again. “You are definitely pretty.”

Gently, Hadley touched Joy’s hair buns. “Now, be a good girl and keep Elissa company. She needs your help to
see things, okay?”
“Alright, | understand,” Joy responded earnestly, her curiosity then piqued. “Mom, when is Mr. Flynn supposed to
arrive?” She still held on to the promise made by Eric.
At the mention, Hadley paused, caught off guard.
It had been quiet since that evening; Eric hadn’t made any contact. It seemed likely he hadn't made it back to
Srixby yet. Hadley was uncertain about his arrival that night.
“Mom, Mom!” Joy persisted, pulling at her mother’s sleeve. “Please, tell me.”
“Joy,” Melba cut in, offering a smile to ease Hadley’s burden.

On her stool, Joy handed Elissa a plate. “Here, Elissa, try some.”
“Thank you, Joy,” Elissa responded with a gentle smile. “You're truly a little angel.”
Meanwhile, Joy nibbled on her food, glancing outdoors occasionally. “Mom, it’s starting to get dark.”
