After Surviving the Apocalypse, I Built a City in Another World novel Chapter 214

Anyway, whatever would happen, her beautiful fields were here at present and she ought to appreciate them.

She looked down at the two babies, who she realized had been staring at her in curiosity all this while.

She giggled, leaning down to give them a few kisses. She lifted them out of the stroller and walked around the flower fields with them, telling them their names and uses. _{ƒгeewebnovёl.com}

The babies didn’t understand anything, of course, but they loved hearing their mother’s gentle voice, and they were giggling the whole time.

Some minutes later, she walked back to the stroller and settled the twins back there.

She took out her phone—newly charged by solar batteries—from the Space and took photos of the beautiful scenery. With a smile, her video turned to the cuties inside the stroller.

The two children smiled and laughed as if they knew what she was doing. They were both very photogenic.

She then raised her arm to take a selfie of the three of them. With the screen also facing the babies, she showed them the picture they took together.

Althea smiled at how cute they were, her finger robotically hovering on the send button, unconsciously about to send the photo to her husband.

"..."

Sigh.

Pushing back the pang of longing, she just leaned down the stroller and smacked her babies’ cheeks with kisses.

Her husband wasn’t here, but she could love the children for him as well.

Her mood turned a bit dour regardless. With a sigh, she decided to open the panel to distract herself and then turned to look at the overall status of the territory.

They hung out there for a while until she decided to walk back home. She started pushing the stroller forward and the children, who were cooing adorably in place, laughed at the sudden jolt.

Her heart softened and filled with fluff at the sight of them, but in the back of her mind she thought of how her husband was and how he might be suffering so far from them.

She reached the main avenue in a melancholic mood. As she walked, she saw a couple of acquaintances hanging around in one of the breakfast shops on the East avenue.

It was Gru, and he was happily bonding with Harold and Clutch. From what she could see from where she was, they were laughing boisterously in an old-man sort of way, and she couldn’t help but smile a bit.

The friendship of old men was a joy to watch and she liked listening to them sharing stories. So today, she decided to join them.

"Boss!"
