“Kiran, do you want a little brother or a little sister?”
In that moment, he placed his hand on his mom's belly, thought for a bit, and said, “I think a sister.”
“We’ve got a smart one here. Kiran already knows it’s going to be a sister even before she’s born.”
His dad walked over to his mom, his eyes full of concern that she might have worn herself out today.
His mom asked, “Kiran, what should we name your sister?”
“Sandy.”
Kiran crouched down, pressing his ear gently to his mom's belly. He closed his eyes and said, “She's my long-awaited sister, Sandy.”
His thoughts slowly drifted back to the present.
Kiran remembered the beauty of his dreams but was also sharply aware of reality’s harshness.
He didn’t let himself get lost in despair because there were more important things waiting for him in the real world.
Looking at Sandy, who was already fast asleep on the bed, Kiran smiled. He carefully removed her face mask and tossed it into the trash bin nearby.
Before leaving, he left a light on for Sandy; she was afraid of the dark and could only sleep well with a light on.
Outside the room, the smile on Kiran’s face gradually faded into a cool indifference. The maid stood at the door, nervously saying, “Mr. Angelo…”
“Make sure Sandy's taken care of, and don’t let her wander off.”
“Yes…”
Kiran turned and walked towards the dark end of the hallway.
Next up… he had more intriguing matters to handle.
The following day,
Several medical records were leaked online.

The wedding Colby had thrown for Sophie was scrutinized, with folks analyzing Colby’s micro-expressions to prove he has congenital emotional detachment disorder. Every expression he made was just a subconscious habit.
