Dragging the lighter suitcase along, she glared at her husband. "I don’t get it. Why can’t Mintz and I stay back while you first get out there?"
Motzen shook his head awkwardly. "They encouraged moving with family since the world will be too hectic."
All his friends have told him the place wasn’t as bad as everyone makes it out to be. Although Motzen was skeptical, he couldn’t deny the benefits the salary and the job offers.

Little Mintz didn’t seem phased by their family’s big move. Yesterday, he spent time with his classmates, excited for what adventures awaited him.

"Yeah," Motzen rubbed his son’s head, feeling pity for him.
"Tilly, I promise that after going there, if there’s no need for you two to be there, 9 will fight my way to send you both back."
