Changing the medicine once a day, the wound would scar in a few days. The thing was, his hand was wrapped with gauze, and it was not convenient to move.
Shortly before noon, Louie was called back by his family. Before leaving, he carefully prepared lunch for Kevin.
Sophia left her home address to Kevin, made sure he would come in the evening, and left with Melissa.
By the time she got home, Kate had made lunch and was waiting for her.
Sophia took out mooncakes and cut a piece for Kate to taste.
"Good!" Kate ate a piece and was very impressed, "Your classmate is so good. He can just open a dessert store!"
Ever probably smelled the aroma and came over. His big eyes stared at the mooncake in Kate's hand. He walked around her, and sometimes, licked the residues on the floor.
Kate smiled, "Does Ever want to eat mooncakes?"
Sophia thought it was funny. She picked up her phone and turned to Ever.
Kate put a small piece of mooncake on her hand and reached out to Ever.
Immediately, Ever came up and swallowed it, and wagged his tail happily.
Sophia posted the picture of Ever eating mooncakes on her blog.
"Grandpa wants to eat mom's mooncake. He walked around her for several circles, and finally succeeded." Said KAP.
After seeing that, netizens left comments to her.
"I'm eating mooncakes now. I almost choke up when I see that."
"Grandpa is really a wily old dog!"
"I want to feed Grandpa, too!"
"Oh, I don't even have mooncakes. Oh, my life…"
"I really want to feed Grandpa. Give me a chance, please! How about a meeting with him?"

Sophia had never paid much attention to the number of her fans. She took a glance this day and saw that the number had risen to nearly three million.
Grandpa was really popular!
Later, Kate went to the market. When she heard that Kevin had promised to come, she was going to cook a few more dishes.
Sophia helped with the cooking. She could do some easy jobs like washing the dishes or vegetables. It was just that she did not want to go into the kitchen, afraid to see the flame of the natural gas stove burning in front of her.
Later, the doorbell rang, and Sophia went to open the door.
"Come in, please. Kev."
Kevin brought some fruit and put it on the table. Kate came out of the kitchen and saw him. She smiled and said, "You must be Kevin, right? I heard Sophia mention you."
"Nice to meet you, Mrs. Green." Kevin nodded to her.
"Please make yourself at home! We don't usually have many visitors… oh, what's wrong with your hand?" Sensitively, Kate noticed the gauze wrapped on Kevin's hand.
"He was scalded while making mooncakes," Sophia explained for him.
"Oh, that must be hurt. Have a rest. The dinner will be ready in a minute!" Kate said with sympathy.
Then, she went back to the kitchen.
Kevin was sitting on the couch. "You really have a good mother, sis." He suddenly said.
Sophia smiled, "Of course!"
As a mother, Kate really did a good job.
Soon, the meal was ready. Kevin wanted to help. But Sophia stopped him and asked him to sit and wait.
Sophia went to the kitchen to help serve and get cutlery and set them on the table.
"Come to dinner, Kevin!" Kate called him, "These are just some common dishes. I don't know your taste. So, I didn't make it spicy. If you love spicy food, we have chili sauce here."
Kevin smiled, "Thank you, madam. I don't like spicy food."
They sat down to have dinner. The meal was very rich, with fish and meat and some vegetarian dishes. There were also some mooncakes on the table, which were brought back by Sophia at noon.
"Just come here in your free time," Kate said as she ate, "I'm really glad you can come."
Kevin smiled and replied, "Fine. I love you, aunt. I'll make a cookie for you when my hand is good."
Kate was delighted, "Great. The mooncakes you made are delicious. And the other cookies must be delicious, too!"
She looked at him with a smile, and suddenly her eyes became sad.
"If… my son hadn't gotten lost, he'd be a few years older than you now," she whispered, "He was as good as you when he was a kid…"
Kevin was stunned and looked to Sophia, and found her in a daze, too.
There seemed to be no such thing in her memory.
Seeing the confused face of Sophia, Kate explained, "You were too young to remember that. You used to have a brother who was three years older than you. At his five age of five, I took him shopping one day. I went to the washroom on the way. When I came out, I just couldn't find him…"
She said, sighing, "You were just two years old, too young to remember anything. For many years, your father and I have been looking everywhere for him but failed. Then we were desperate about it. Seeing me sad, your father put away all the pictures of your brother to avoid me being sad when seeing them. I never told you about that..."
Sophia was afraid that she would be sad and comforted her, "Maybe my brother met a good family and lived a good life. We may meet in the future."
Kevin also comforted her, "Yeah. Relatives may meet after years of separation. Things like that happen a lot!"
Kate forced a smile, "I also hope so..."
It was the first time that Sophia heard about it. From inside, she wanted to help her mother to find this brother. Meanwhile, she knew that the chance was too small. Even if he was still alive, they did not know where in the world he was and how to find him?
After dinner, Sophia got downstairs with Kevin. It was not eight o 'clock yet, and he could just get on the last bus in time.
"Be careful!" Sophia told her.
"Yeah. Go back, sis.." Kevin smiled.
