Eight Kickass Uncle Sweet Spoil

Chapter 8

Susie looked at the orchard and shouted, “Alex!”

A bird’s cry rang out from within the trees, and a colorful parrot flew toward them and alighted on a nearby branch. But he stopped when he saw Ryan and fluttered back a few feet.

Susie said. “Shhh!” She leaned up to Ryan’s ear and whispered, “Uncle, Alex is afraid of you.”

The little girl’s hands were cupped into a circle around his ear, and her big eyes were soft and endearing Ryan couldn’t help lowering his voice as he looked at the parrot. He said. “Susie, maybe I should call someone to get him? Let’s have one of our bodyguards catch your friend, and we’ll take him back right away.”

Susie frowned and shook her head. “No.”

Then she looked around, afraid the bird would overhear. “Don’t try to trap Alex. Alex is not a bad bird. If you try to trap him, he’ll be scared.” she explained in a whisper.

Ryan wanted to laugh. The entire scene was too adorable. But, forcing himself to take it seriously, he nodded and said, “Okay.”

Susie pressed Ryan’s shoulders and told him, “Stand still, Uncle

Ryan.”

She walked a little further into the orchard and called out for Alex

again.

Alex stood on a branch high above her head, squawking, “Idiots! Idiots!”

Susie said seriously, “Alex, Uncle Ryan is not an idiot.”

Alex: “Stupid dogs! Stupid dogs!”

Susie said firmly, “Uncle Ryan is not a stupid dog, either.”
