Kira sat on a wooden bench and watched her two little sisters play on the small playground.Oh how she hated having to grow up and how she longed to be young again.Stretching as she stood up she felt her back pop back into place.She made her way to the swings and sat down on a unoccupied one.She began to swing herself out of sheer boredom.
"Sissy!You have to play with us!"Danni ordered as she stood in front of Kira.Kira smiled and stood up scoping the five year old into her arms. She carefully swung her around before setting her back on her feet.Danni ran off in the direction of her other sister,giggles bubbling out of her mouth as she did so.Kira shook her head as she walked toward them and smiled.
It was rare on a such a bright day that Kira was let off of work.But her boss could take care of the dinner without her for one day seeing as Kira came on a three day schedule.Tuesdays,Thursdays and Saturdays were days she worked at the elementary school.Sundays she had church then school right after the family of five ate lunch.Mondays,Wednesdays and Fridays Kira worked at a local dinner.It was a Wednesday so she would be working at the dinner but her boss gave her the day off to spend it with her family.
Coming out of her thoughts,Kira spotted Margret leaning over to whisper into Danni's ear and sat in between the two.Margret groaned at her attempt to keep them from gossiping and glared at her.She laughed and patted Margret's head.Danni crawled into Kira's lap and pushed a book into her face demanding that she read it to her.
"You know how to read silly.You can read it to yourself."Kira said but Danni was having none of it.Sighing Kira took the book and lifted it over Danni's head so she could see the pictures.With a groan of annoyance from Margret,Kira began to read the story.A small smile etched onto her face the whole time.

Raphael knew he had an important business meeting in less than two hours in Boston, yet here he was in Ipswich, driving to one of its many parks. The week had been a very busy one for the Knight and his young wife seemed to avoided him lately--they barely ever see their spouse in the eyes let alone spoken to each other... He needed a little relaxation before the stress killed him, he kept telling himself as he parked his black Mercedes and went to the park.
It was a good day to be spent at the park; there were women with strollers talking to one another, their children playing at nearby sand lot. Here and there were pile of red and gold dry leaves, and the smell of freshly baked pies from nearby shop at the main street filled the air... Autumn in New England was always beautiful, and often it reminded him of his family estate in England where he grew up.
He continued walking into the park until he noticed a vacant bench; sitting there the twenty three years old Knight noticed a young woman with two younger girls. Raphe watched the three for a moment, how they interacted and how loving the young woman seemed when interacting with the young girls--who he chalked up as her younger sisters. There was time when he liked to spent his time with his youngest sibling back in England...
Raphe shook his head and continued watching the girls; now the oldest was reading them from a book and the Knight finally decided to approach the group. "Hello" he smiled to the brunette, "mind if I sit here and join the ladies listening to the story?"

"Seven clumsy little cats get up to naughty tricks,One falls and spills the milk and then there are six,"Kira said as she held the book.Danni giggling at the kittens antics while Margret listened to her sister's voice.
"Hello,mind if i sit here and join the ladies listening to the story?"A man asked.Kira looked up and stared at the man before nodding.He didn't seem to be a threat to her so she didn't mind.She waited for him to sit down before she started reading again.She turned the page and read the words.Her eyes glancing at the man once in awhile and wondered who he was.
"Five sleepy little cats each rests a tired paw,one is carried right away and then there are four."She reads and lets her sister look at the page before turning it.She feels Danni scooting around on her lap and looks at her for a second or two.She finishes the story up and sets it beside her.Kira wraps her arms around Danni's waist and holds her there.She studies the man's face before turning toward Margret as she asked her for something.Margret soon gets up and walks back to the playground.
"So what brings you here to this park?"She asks him as she sits there.Danni grabs another book and begins to read it herself to stay out of the conversation.She watches the man quietly as she waits for his reply.I wonder what's troubling the man?He seems stressed by the look on his face.She thinks to herself.

Raphael waited, knowing how unusual it was to be asked by a grown man, a complete stranger nonetheless, if he could listen to the story along. He was usually more suave than this... But he wasn't aiming to flirt--or was he? Trying to not think about it he focused his attention to the story she was reading to her younger sisters, smiling as he watched the sisters. The younger ones sure would one day grow into beautiful ladies while the oldest sister was simply stunning; maybe it was a good decision indeed to take a quick walk at this park.
He watched one of the little girls go to play at the playground then turning his attention to look at the young woman when asked what brought him there. "Well, I'm going to have a business meeting in a couple of hours, I guessed I could use a fresh air before it start and things get too hectic" Raphe said, hoping she could understand what he was saying despite his thick European accent; he had met several American girls who seemed to be distracted by it and ended not listening what he was trying to tell them--it was slightly frustrating at times.
"My name's Raphael" he told her, smiling politely, "my friends usually calls me Raphe" he pronounced it like he would 'reef'. Turning to the little girl on her lap, he gave her a smile and a wink, "and who this pretty little lady might be?"

Kira nodded in understanding and guessed that was what made him stressed.She knew how hectic meetings could be and the need to get fresh air.It didn't surprise her that he'd go to a park where kids are running around playing,happy and carefree of life's worries.
"Nice to meet you,I'm Kira.This is Danni,say hi danni,"She replied to the man and looked down at Danni who had looked up when she heard him talking to her.She waved at him with a smile and giggled happily.Kira smiled at her sister before looking back up at Raphel.
"What kind of accent is that?It sounds like it might be from Europe but i'm not sure."She asked him as she shifted Danni around in her lap.Her left leg was falling asleep and the blood was being cut off.Danni looked down and continued back to her book.She didn't really get Adult conversations and never paid them any attention.Kira looked over his shoulder for a second or two to see what Margret was doing before focusing back on his face.
She felt her bag vibrate but ignored it knowing it was her phone.Probably her aunt asking where she was and when she was coming home.If it was her boss she'd reply as soon as she could after she was finished talking to Raphel.She thought but came out of her mind as he started talking again.

Danni, the little girl, reminded him of his own half sister; she was about her age... Ah, he missed her terribly. Maybe when this mission was finally over he will returned to his family house in England... Spending time with his sister finally catching up for all the years he had been absent from her life. To be honest she also reminded him of someone he knew, but he couldn't remember where he saw her--if he had been introduced to someone so beautiful, he didn't think he would easily forget.
"I was born in Ireland, but my parents were from Scotland and France.. I was raised in England but spent great deal of my life in Italy. I'll say the accent is mixed between those countries" he said. He sat next to her and smiled, before it clicked when he saw her face from this point of view; wasn't she the pretty girl working at one of those diners he used to frequented back when he first came to Ipswich few months ago?
That felt like years ago now, those days when he ate alone at one diner after another whenever he didn't feel like cooking. He looked at Danni and patted his own lap in case the little girl wanted to move from her sister's--by the way she moved her it seemed her leg was tired--then smiled to Kira again. "Do you happen to work here in Ipswich, Kira? I think I have seen you around before.."
