You Are The Apple of My Eyes novel Chapter 904

Nine was the first one to find the tree hole. It was originally a small hole in the tree, and Don climbed in first. The small place quickly aroused his imagination.

Don said he wanted to be a squirrel in the tree hole.

Of course it was unrealistic to live in a tree hole, but Van would never give a blow to his brother who had been promising to protect him. He quietly decorated the tree hole for Don.

First, he wiped the tree hole with a towel, and then put his favorite sweater as a cover, and put in some little things that Don liked.

Van felt like he was setting up a simple and shabby dog house. Later, when he saw Don and Nine sitting in the tree hole, he felt it was really a dog house.

Later, Don told him that they could only come in the daytime, for it would be dark in the evening. Then Van went to the warehouse and took out small lights. He stuck the lights on the wall in the tree hole, so it could be lit up at night.

Don was so happy.

Sometimes he sneaked over at night, but found that it was very cold when the wind blew in. Then he came up with an idea. He found some plastic vines and hung them up as a tassel-shaped curtain.

On the day he made it, he proudly showed it off to Van and got praised.

Don looked at Van with a smile. "The tree hole is our secret."

Then he raised his index finger to his lips and shushed to Van and Nine. This had become their secret base.

Again, Van opened the curtain of the plastic vines. Smelling the scent of Don, Nine raised his head and gently barked.

Don also looked up, with red eyes and tear stains on his face. He sobbed and sniffed, and his shoulders were shaking.

He was almost short of breath if he didn't stop crying.

Van was so sad that his eyes turned red again. "I'm sorry, Don."

"Humph!" Don turned around and didn't reply to him.

Van signaled to Nine to wait outside, and Nine obediently went out and guarded outside the tree hole. Van climbed in, sat next to Don and held his little hand.

This time, Don didn't get rid of him, but he didn't look at him and kept sobbing.

Van took out a lollipop from his pocket and handed it to Don. "Don, here you are. It's your favorite lollipop. I secretly brought it to you. Dad and Mom don't know."

Children liked sugar, especially Don. Once he was sick, he would hide to avoid taking medicine. Only sugar could take him out and let him take medicine.

Nina didn't allow him to eat too much sugar. For one thing, it would lead to dental cavities. For another, it took a lot of time to make the lollipop that Noah gave her, but the former was the main reason.

In order to make Don realize the seriousness of dental cavities, Nina specially found a video and showed it to him. Knowing that too much sugar would make little bugs appear in his teeth, Don quitted crying for sugar for a period of time.

It was only a short period of time, but in the end, Don was still unable to resist the temptation of sugar.

According to the rules, Don and Van could only eat three lollipops a week at most. Van was not as fond of candies as Don, and sometimes he would forget that he had candies in his pocket. When he remembered and ate them, Don would look at him eagerly.

Sometimes Van gave the lollipop to Don, and Don would pretend to refuse it at first and then put it into his mouth. Once Nina found it and blamed them.

Nina specially said to Van that he couldn't just give everything to Don. It was not good to give him whatever he wanted. Since Don didn't know how to restrain himself, as his brother, Van should help him do it.

Later, Van didn't give his own lollipops to Don anymore, and would warn him that too much sugar would hurt his teeth. Don pouted to protest, but this time Van didn't give in.

He wanted to be good to Don, but too much sugar would harm him.

But not long after, Van still gave in.
