"Wow! I want to listen to you," Sophie said with curiosity.

"Lara's father, his wife, and his children are my neighbors. They are live in front of my apartment." Natalie said.

Sophie remembered that woman. She was very good and kind. Little Sophie didn't want to think bad things about her family. Maybe to know this woman better?

Natalie didn't know her well, but she wanted. Also, Sophie's friend heard different words about this mysterious woman.

Little Sophie supported her best friend. So, they decided to met Lara's stepmother together. Sophie and Natalie had a great plan for it.

She appeared from the trees. The woman walked with her little children. Sophie noticed her kind eyes. Lara's stepmother had a good mood. Little Sophie and Natalie wanted to talk to her.

"Good Morning, Mrs. M.," Natalie said with a smile.

"Good Morning, children! How are you, today?" asked stepmother named Mrs. M.

"I'm fine thank you. Now is a nice weather! This is my best friend Sophie," Natalie replied.

"Nice to meet you!" Mrs. M. said and gave a handshake to Sophie.

Little Sophie and Natalie watched this woman. They wanted to know her better.
