The next day, Lillian was lying on the bed with her pyjamas. Her hair was untied and she was holding a mother-to-be book in her hand which she brought yesterday.

When she saw XiXi came into the room, she spoke softly. "Are you looking for me?" "Are you ok, how are you feeling today?" XiXi asked me. "I'm okay now. Is it time for lunch." Lillian enquired. "Yes!" XiXi nodded and Lillian said. "Glad that you came looking for me. I am very hungry now."

"You should go eat when you're hungry. Don't let your stomach grumbled or starve yourself, its not good for the baby. By the way, how many months?" Lillian answered Xixi's curiosity. "Coming to 5 months." Then both of them walked out of the room to the dining room.

FengYe and XiYan were busy cooking lunch for them. Since its Saturday, the Feng's siblings could get together to do things together. They ate pasta for lunch. "Why not we go out shopping after lunch? I need to buy few items." XiXi said. They all nodded and soon after they have tidy up the kitchen, they all went out in FengYe's car.

FengYe drove towards downtown to a big shopping mall "The Horizon." Found a carpark, parked and they all embarked from the car. "What are you going to buy, Lili jie." XiXi asked, giving Lillian a nickname. "Don't know yet, maybe some of the baby things." Lillian replied. Both XiYan and XiXi went together to buy their things while FengYe stayed behind with Lillian.

He passed Lillian a credit card. "Here, a card for you. Since you're also my sister too, I applied a Company's sub-card for you like XiYan and XiXi. The credit limit's not much, only CAD5,000K and will be accountable by the company. So no worry and use it." FengYe said.

"I can't have your card, I have monies. I have already being a burden staying with you all now. How can I take your card again." Lillian hesitated. How can she? She's already staying and eating free at their place. Although they considered her as their closed cousin, still all the household expenditures incurred were still under his expenses."

Just take it, consider its as a gift for my little niece/nephew. Just buy what you want for the baby using this card." FengYe replied her.

Lillian have no choice but to take it for emergency. She's not going to use this card unless emergency.

She was counting in her mind, CAD5,000K is equivalent to RMB26,000K. Suddenly, she shouted "Wow.. that much." Her sudden loud cry caused FengYe to freat out, thinking something wrong with her or her baby. "Are you ok? Are you hurt? The baby ok" FengYe questioned her continuously. Lillian waved her hand and said. "Ok! I was flabbergasted by your credit card limits. Its more than RMB26,000 back home." The passerby and some onlookers gave her a weird look.

While they are happily shopping continuing buying the things they needed, back in City X, Marcus was busy packing. His flight to Canada is tomorrow noon. He also took along the ring that Lillian left on the side table with him.

Meantimes in City A, Ruby was laying in Lucas's arms snugly. Her eyes were closed as if she was asleep, but she was not. Lucas kept an eye on her, and slipped his warm hand underneath her blanket and hugged her tightly.

The phone rangs only twice before Ruby picked up the call. It was her mother. She received a call from her. "Hello.. Ruby?" Mother Tang said. "Mhmm..." She answered.

Then Mother Tang starts talking again. "Ruby, are you there? Have you guys arrived City A? Are you sleeping now?" Ruby answered her mom with her eyes still closed. "Hello mother.. No, just laying around on bed. What's it?"

Mother Tang could not hide her worries. She voiced everythings out to Ruby. "Then, where's Lillian now? Did you all looks into the places she went before.. the teens club where they joined last time, the racing carts place, the bowling alley, etc etc.." Ruby asked her mother.

"Yes, Marcus looked everywhere but can't find her but sometimes later, Marcus received a message from her saying she's overseas. Now we don't know where she's." Mother Tang poured out what she knows to Ruby. "Hmmm.. overseas." Suddenly Ruby remembered. "The Fengs! She have cousins in Canada. Lillian told me before." Ruby told her mother.
