…those eyes, that peaceful smile. And even the manner in which she was standing next to Nathan in the photo seemed familiar to her somehow.
Viktoria lightly shook her head as she set Mateo down on the bathroom floor.
"I'm overthinking," she said to herself.
Mateo stretched his arms up. "Lift."
She smiled, lifting him up and placing him on the bathroom counter.
"Let's brush first," she said, picking up his toothbrush.
Mateo opened his mouth as he was supposed to, still half asleep.
Viktoria brushed his teeth, but her thoughts kept wandering back to the photo. Something about it was bothering her, but she wasn't frightened, just disturbed.
As she finished rinsing his teeth, her phone rang from the bedroom.
She frowned. "Stay here, might be your daddy," she said to Mateo softly.
He nodded, playing with the edge of his sleeve.
Viktoria went back into the bedroom, retrieving her cell phone from the bed.
