Manuel had gone downstairs as usual, and when he saw Angelica's figure in the living room, there was a pause in his steps, and then it was as usual.
After that he went to the kitchen, ate, and then said goodbye to Serena and went out alone.
It was a school day, so Serena said nothing except to tell him to study hard.
Only after he had left, Serena noticed that Angelica was a little sullen and reached out her hand with food to pat Angelica's cheek.
"What's wrong?"
Angelica raised her head, opened her round eyes and said pitifully, "Does brother hate Angelica?"
Serena froze, then explained, "How can this be? How can little Angelica think this, your brother does not hate you."
Angelica hung her head in a somewhat demoralized way.
"Is it because he didn't talk to you just now? Don't worry, he's not that bad, he just has to go to school, so you can go with him when you go to school later."
"Really?" Angelica asked, tilting her head a little uncertainly.
"Yes, really, your brother will definitely talk to you when he comes back, and if he doesn't talk to you, Auntie will clean it up for you, okay?"
After Serena said this she didn't say or do the bad thing, she just blinked and looked at Lea beside her.
For the rest of the day Angelica looked forward to Manuel's return from school.
Children's thoughts were always simple, and it was easy to overthink a fight with a good playmate and then only have one eye to make up.
So now all she wants is for her brother to come home and for her to make up with him.
The day is spent in waiting.
Angelica finally fell asleep on the sofa, and when Lea saw her asleep, she fell asleep with her arms around her.
Serena went downstairs to see this scene, because Lea was holding Angelica, so she had to first take Lea's hands off her, then take her upstairs and go back downstairs to bring the other one later.
Just as Serena was about to go downstairs to pick up Angelica she suddenly saw the car bringing Manuel back and, thinking about the conflict between the two children, Serena decided not to go downstairs for the time being.
Indeed, children are the best at resolving conflicts between them, after all they are simple and brave, but if she, the adult, were around, both children would probably be a little embarrassed, so Serena did not go downstairs.
Angelica a dreamed that she was eating ice cream, chocolate, and lots of marshmallows, and she was in a princess house where there was only food, and the smell of food was everywhere, and Angelica kept eating and eating, and at the end of it all Manuel's fierce tone suddenly appeared in front of her.
Then Angelica woke up from fear.
When she woke up, Angelica found a tall, thin figure on the couch, she had just woken up so she didn't think much about it, after all she had been waiting all day, so her first reaction upon seeing Manuel was to sit up and shout, "Brother."
At those words, Manuel's back stiffened for a moment, then he slowly looked toward her.
It took a few moments before a harsh sound came out of his throat, "Yes."
