Hearing what Mua Kong instructed the child to call him, Mua Mong knew that the child was his nephew! Son of his younger brother and Hli Ja.
Happy to hear that the woman his brother loved dearly could still be alive somewhere, Mua Mong smiled brightly at the child. He leaned down, meeting the boy eye-to-eye.
"Mhm... Mhm... I'm your uncle Mua Mong," he said, while nodding his head dazzlingly.
He reached his hand out to pat Little Superglue's head.
Behind Mua Mong, the King watched. His heart filling him with mixed emotions. He had many questions he wanted to ask, but couldn't because there were too many people watching.
When most of the crowd turned around to look, they saw the back of a child. They also had many questions. They resisted their want to run up and gawk; they had to maintain their manner and distance. Eventually, they would get to see who the child was, so they held back their curiosity.
