Chapter 22 A Promise In The Park

• Chapter 22 – A Promise in the Park

• Tarquin helped Ada set the table, while Pandora ran in circles around them, giggling with uncontained energy. Every so often, she would throw her arms around one of them, and they’d stop whatever they were doing just to hug her back. It wasn’t just dinner — it was a memory in the making.
