"What are you doing?" Zayne asked.
"She called you a horse... Sob, sob, sob. I want to beat her up. This is too insulting!" Joseph cried out.
Zayne was dumbfounded.
Angel was not afraid at all, or rather, she was looking forward to becoming a chivalrous rogue who could punish evil and promote good. Angel stuck out her chest and accepted Joseph's challenge.
"Bring it on, then. Do you think I'm afraid of you?"
Joseph was nearly a year older than Angel and was slightly taller than her. He was also stronger than her and had arms that were bigger than hers. He swung his arms and approached Angel.
Although Angel was petite and delicate, she was extremely bold as she held him by the waist and kicked him hard.
Zayne crossed his arms and watched the exciting battle unfold while grinning from ear to ear.
Occasionally, he would cheer for Joseph as well," C'mon, Joseph! You're a man. You can't lose."
Angel's adorable braids had come loose after being yanked by Joseph, and her arms were cut by Joseph's nails too. However, she did not cry. Instead, she grew
even more courageous.
She was even cheering for Joseph. "Don't cry! You'll be a clown if you cry."
Joseph said, "I won't cry."
Angel stomped on Joseph's foot hard, making him wail in pain.
Angel looked at the windows upstairs anxiously and reached out to cover Joseph's mouth. "You said you wouldn’t cry. You didn’t keep your promise. Your nose will grow longer."
Hearing that his nose was going to grow longer, Joseph wailed louder. Zayne picked Joseph up and said helplessly, "You brat. Why are you crying when Little Sister isn't even crying?"
Angel said, "He's a coward.”
