After coming back from school, Charles found himself lost in thought.

Three–year–old Simone was a quiet, withdrawn girl. In her tiny world, there was only her dad, Samuel. She wouldn’t let anyone else in. Wanting Simone to have friends her age, Samuel decided to adopt two more kids to keep her company

The first time Charles saw Simone at the orphanage, she was in a beautiful princess dress. She curled up in Samuel’s arms, peeking out shyly. Her big, innocent eyes were full of curiosity.

Back then, mine–year–old Charles was fighting the orphanage dogs for food. He let the dogs bite and scratch him, but still managed to snatch a hall- raten, slobbery chicken drumstick from their jaws, stubborn as ever,

Once the dogs wandered off, Charles carefully pulled the drumstick from his pocket, wiped it off with his sleeve, and slowly got up. Limping from the pain, he hobbled over to Raymond and held the drumstick to Raymond’s mouth. He said, “Come on, Raymond, eat.”

Raymonsi turned his head away, swallowing hard. He said. “You eat it. Charles. I’m not hungry.”

Charles just smiled, ruffled Raymond’s han, and shook his head. Even though he was so hungry he felt dizzy, he wouldn’t even look at the drumstick. He insisted, “You eat. I’m not hungry.”

Raymond couldn’t resist tymore. He finally took the drumstick and started gnawing on it hungrily.

All of a sudden, Simone snuggled even closer into Samuel’s arms. She pointed at Charles and said, “Daddy, I want that boy to play with me

Samuel followed Simone’s gaze and spotted Charles, who was covered in dirt from head to toe. At just nine years old, Charles already seemed to understand a lot about the world. Samuel worried that having someone so worldly around Simone could be dangerous.

Samuel was silent for a moment. Then he gently pinched Simone’s chubby cheek and said, “Simone, that boy is much older than you. Don’t you want a little friend your age

“Hui Daddy, I only want him to be my friend, Simone insisted, more determined than ever, even though she was usually so easygoing

Samuel fel a headache coming on, but after a long pause, he finally nodded. He said, “Alright, we’ll bring him home to be your big brother” He just couldn’t bear to see Simone unhappy, so he gave in.

Simone was over the moon. She hopped down from Samuels arms and bounced over to Charles “Hello, come home with me!” she called out, her face full of joy. She wasn’t shy at all, throwing herself straight into Charles’s arms.

Simone was soft and cuddly all over, and Charles felt like he was being wrapped up by a fluffy ball. Afraid she might fall, he didn’t dare move away. In that moment, a sweet milky scent washed over him, and his heart trembled.

Simone said, “No reason. I just like you. I want to take you home so you can play with me forever” She wrapped her arms around Charles’s warst and rubbed her head against him like a little kitten.

Charles felt ticklish from her cuddling and took a few steps back to put some space between them. He asked, “Forever? Won’t you get tired of me?
