Chapter 677: Parenting

The groundbreaking ceremony began as the host introduced the special guests, helping them with the foundation coming from the government and the private sectors.

Then, the kids were introduced together with the people behind the scenes. The ones who had been working hard to make this dream come true.

“Finally, we have our birthday celebrant who visualizes this dream. Let us welcome our very own Princess Daniella Hamilton Blackstone.” The host clapped his hand, pointing to her.

Standing on the stage with her husband and friends, she moved toward the podium set up for her speech. It was necessary to welcome all their guests, thanking the different sectors for their sponsorships.

But most importantly, her eyes focused on the kids that represented the kids that would benefit from this project. Her heart went to them because they were deprived of a life that every child should be entitled to have.

“Thank you...” Dani started relating the rehearsed speech she had prepared for this celebration. Then, her eyes shifted to the people who had made all of this possible.

Starting with her friends, Jacky and Marcus, for making the event great, then Haley, who had created a magnificent plan for the project.

.....

“To my husband, for supporting me wholeheartedly with my plans and donating this area to my cause.” Continuing with her speech. “Thank you, Alex.” Blowing a kiss in his direction.

With eyes slightly teary, she turned around to the arrival of new guests, who were moving to the front seat. Her father patted Jeremy’s head as he sat beside the boy. Then, her mother sat beside the twins on her other side, smiling at them.

Her heart swelled at the beautiful sight before her. She had to remember to thank Jacky for the insight. Again, her eyes scanned the room, appreciating the support of all the people

around her.

“I always believe that every kid has the potential to be anything each wishes to be, but without care, love, and the chance to achieve their dreams, we deprive them of a future.” She returned to her speech, roaming her eyes to the crowd.

Silence enveloped the gathered crowd around her. Even the children seemed to be behaving at the moment as everyone seemed to listen.

“I know that what I started doesn’t guarantee the future of these kids.” Pointing to the children sitting in the front seat. “But, I wish only to start by giving them a safe place to start with their new life.”

A round of applause reverberated in the open area where the ceremonies took place, standing at the top of the makeshift stage, smiling at her guests.

She did not want to prolong her speech to avoid boring the kids. “Let me just thank you all for coming, and I hope all will have a great time with what we prepared.”

Her friends cheered and clapped their hands after she ended her speech, then a few more of their guests also provided some of their thoughts on the project and pledged their support.

“That was a great speech, and happy birthday, Princess.” Her father moved toward her, giving her a hug and a kiss. Then, her mother also followed her father with sweet greetings.

“I am surprised to see you both here.” Dani did not expect that her parents were also coming to the event.

Then, a tugging on her pants made her look down, finding Aira’s cute dainty hands getting her attention. “Excuse me,” Dani told her parents. “But have you met Aira and Aries?” Tapping Aira in the head as she showed them to her parents.

“Yes, she had been entertaining me earlier while we watched your speech. She told me that you are very kind, giving her candy.” Laura also patted the little girl on the back. “And Aries here was a real sweetheart.” Her mom continued.

Smiling at the adorable face gazing at her, she smiled. “What is it?” Kneeling at the tiny child, finally focusing her attention on her need.

Her parents excused themselves, moving along to greet some of their guests also present at the event. They were a handful of their colleagues in the business that had joined in her crusade.

“I want another candy.” She uttered in her sweet little voice. “Can you give me another one?”

Her smile was so adorable that she might even give her more than candy if Aira asked her. She had never been good with a child, not because she did not like them.

It was just rare for her to be with young ones except for events like this. The only long interaction she had with young people was with Andy, Jeremy, and on a handful of occasions.

“But you already ate one?” His brother interjected, reprimanding her sister. “I am sorry, but you do not need to give her another.” Aries looked at her, gaining her attention.

She also never had the experience of bickering with a sibling. Her mind suddenly brought her back to finding her brother. What if she had known about him when they were young? Would they be just like this two?

“It is not for me.” Aira quickly responded, putting her hands on her waist, showing her brother that she was not afraid of him. “It is for my friend.”

She did not expect that at a young age, probably around five or six. They were already very thoughtful of their friends. Was she liked that when she was young? She hardly remembered what she was doing when she was their age.

“Oh! Which friend?” Aries asked, his face scrunched up as if not believing her sister.

Then, Aira pointed to the young girl at her brother’s back. “Lily.” Suddenly, her eyes noticed the boy turned pink at the mention of the girl’s name. “My brother had a crush on Lily.”

“Is that so?” Dani immediately asked, curious at this little girl who was still standing a few feet away from them.

Aira’s face looked like she approved of the two, nodding her head as she kept telling his brother’s secrets.

“Aira, I don’t like her.” Aries abruptly interrupted her little sister, embarrassed at her revelation.

“Hey, that is ok.” Dani refereed the two before it became out of hand. “Having a crush doesn’t necessarily mean love. It is just admiring another for some of her good attributes.”

She meddled with the two, who finally agreed to what she said, nodding their heads as if they completely understood her words. But she was happy that she averted the situation from booming into a fight.

“Come on, let us get some more candies for everyone.” She suggested, loving how the two kids held on to her two hands.

Walking hand and hand, they moved to the tables on the other side of the massive area where the treats covered the entire surface.

She took a basket and asked her partners to help her distribute them to the kids joining them in this celebration. But she made the two promise that they could only have one because they would be eating soon.

If this was what being a parent was all about, maybe she should not be afraid of it. Her mind and heart suddenly yearned to learn more about parenting.
