Maggie took her phone out, and realized that Franklin had sent her a video.

She saw it but didn't click on it.

Isabella, however, leaned over to Franklin, eager to watch the video he had just recorded.

The return leg was even easier.

Isabella had said that Franklin was very good at basketball. And that was true.

He held the ball and skillfully spun it between his hands.

With his sleeves slightly rolled up, he moved with ease, gracefully keeping up with Isabella's pace. Maggie heard an admiring exclamation from around them: "So handsome." Maggie, recording the video, held her phone steady.

What Tommy's mom didn't say was that it was actually quite rare for a child to have a stronger bond with their father than with their mother, and to have such a close relationship.

However, she did think that Maggie's husband treated her child very well, so it made sense that they had a close relationship.

Besides that, she noticed that other parents were watching their spouse interact with the child during them games, either laughing and applauding if they were doing well, or feeling anxious if they weren't. People could sense that they were all in it together. (67)
