Justin stared at the young child in his arms.Her murmur reached his ears.

It seemed like she was calling out for her mother...The light in his eyes dimmed.

Pete rarely asked about his mother.But as it turned out, to his son, his mother was such an important figure.He lowered his eyes, hiding the complex emotions within.Then, he carried Cherry into the bedroom, took off her shoes, and tucked her in.

He gazed at his son's young, sleeping visage for a long time before he quietly exited the bedroom.

The next day.

"Sorry, I fell asleep last night.Did Daddy scold you last night, Cherry?"

Cherry lay on the bed and sent her brother a voice message back.

"Nope, because even though I don't know much about mathematics, I'm awesome at history! Daddy was so moved that he canceled my homework!"

Pete believed her.

He said, "Okay.Don't forget our plans today"

Cherry was about to reply when the door opened.

Justin pushed the door open and walked in to see his son on the bed with his butt perched high into the air while texting on his cell phone.

At the sight of him, his son turned off the cell phone screen in a slight panic.

Then, with a guilty conscience, he blinked with his big cute eyes and exclaimed, "You look even more handsome today, Daddy!"

Justin couldn't help but smile when he heard the little fellow complimenting him.

"...You're a handsome fellow, too."

"No, that won't do."

Cherry corrected him seriously and said, "Handsome'' is used to describe boys.I'm going to be pretty when I grow up!"

Justin was perplexed.

Cherry flipped the quilt aside and climbed out of the bed nimbly.

Then, she held his large hand with her own small one and asked, "Wanna have breakfast, Daddy? Cherr...Cherry Pit is really hungry!"

Justin glanced at her hesitantly again.

Grandpa was the one that had named him Peter, in hopes that he would be as resilient and down-to-earth as a rock.

How did that become 'cherry pit' instead? It sounded a little sissy.
