."Justin, come and sit with me. You already spent a lot of time with uncle Kevin," Daisy said with a frown. 'Is Justin ignoring me on purpose? He's been pestering Kevin all this time. He didn't even greet me nor give me a hug. Is he still angry with me because I punished him a few days ago?' Daisy thought to herself.
"Mommy, I'm starving!" Justin ran towards his mother and threw himself in her arms.
"Sweetie, the dinner will be served soon." Daisy felt relieved when she realized that Justin wasn't angry with her. She held him in her arms and asked, "What you and uncle Kevin were talking about?"
"I was telling him that I miss uncle Lee a lot and I want to visit him at the army base. But you didn't take me there. Mommy, can you take me to the army base next weekend, please, please? Uncle Kevin said he would take care of me then," Justin asked with his head bending to one side, which melted Daisy's heart.
"Well, if you behave well next week, I can take you to the army base." Daisy pinched his little chubby face with love.
"You love uncle Kevin very much, huh? But you always argue with aunt Leena. Why is that?" Daisy asked curiously, wanting to hear Justin's answer.
"Yeah, I do love uncle Kevin. He's like my best friend, and I love to play with him. As for aunt Leena, she always acts like a little spoiled girl. Even I am more maturer than her. I don't like playing with her," Justin answered honestly.
"But aunt Leena is uncle Kevin's wife. If you continue to disrespect her, uncle Kevin may be upset. Do you want to upset your friend? Do you want to hurt his feelings?" Daisy asked with a sly smile and wondered whether Justin would change his attitude towards Leena. Justin pursed his lips. He was thinking the things over.
After a while, he said, "I don't think uncle Kevin will get upset with me because of something so trivial. Aunt Leena is a grown up, and she has to act like that. You should probably ask her not to behave like a child anymore. I think uncle Kevin prefers a mature and elegant wife, not a naughty and immature girl." Justin gave Daisy a big, naughty smile and thought to himself, 'There's no way I will make friends with her! I don't like this woman!'
"What? Boy, I dare you, say it again?" Leena scolded in a harsh voice and stared at Justin.
"I think uncle Kevin prefers a mature and elegant wife, not a naughty and immature girl. Do you hear me well?" Justin repeated, eyes full of disdain. He wasn't afraid of Leena at all. In his eyes, Leena was a demon who was hidden and acted as an innocent girl in front of others. Justin would never surrender to her.
