"I will not fail you madam and I will take very good care of your daughter. I will protect her with my life and make sure she doesn't come to any harm. This is my word to you madam and I will surely keep it. I promise you, madam." Hannah said while her face was already full of tears.
********************
In a mall. Immediately after the call with Mabel, Jun returned Kal's phone and informed him he was leaving.
"Uncle, I'm leaving."
Kal wasn't surprised as he already expected that. He knew how close Jun and Mabel were and he knew he would go home immediately he realized Mabel was home. They love being around each other the most. But he still decided to tease him a little
"Where are you going?"
"I'm going home, uncle."
He faked confusion "We are here to shop so why are you going home when we are yet to get anything?"
"We will come back with Mabel to get everything we want to get... Mabel is home and she is bored without me. I need to go to her right now uncle. Please take me, home uncle
"Ok Jun. Let's go and pick Mabel then,"
"Yay!! Thank you, uncle!" He hopped out of the mall immediately while Kal followed behind with a smile.
**************
A few hours later, Hannah, Mabel, Jun, and Kal sat down in the sitting room and they were all playing and laughing hard
"Mum... tell us an interesting story." Jun requested from Hannah
Mabel pulled Jun and whispered into his ear and they both nodded their heads in understanding. The two elders stared at each other and smiled
"Mummy, we want a moral teaching story!" They both chorused aloud and the elders were confused.
"What made you change your mind? I thought you wanted an interesting story?" Kal asked
Jun and Mabel smiled and nodded to each other again.
"Yes... we want an interesting moral teaching story." Mabel spoke alone this time with a smile and Jun nodded in approval. They both look adorable and amazingly cute.
"You guys are really something. How on earth can you guys know each other's minds just by looking into each other's eyes? You are really amazing and precious. I love you both."
" I love you too mum" Mabel replied calmly
"I love you too, mum." Jun also replied calmly
And the trio hugged each other for getting a certain angry man who was staring a dagger at them.
"So no one loves me? You only love her right? I'm really angry right now." he faked a pitiful face which made the two kids walk up to where he sat and hugged him both patting his back like they were consoling him which made Kal notice something immediately
"What... What are you kids doing?" He asked them with a raised brow
"Hm... Jun, now that we know uncle is a baby, we must pamper him and treat him like a baby every day so he doesn't cry ok?" Mabel said, forming a sad face not bothering herself with replying to their uncle.
"I've heard you, Mabel... I will make sure I protect my uncle very well from now on." Jun replied with a firm sigh and they both nodded and patted their uncle on both sides of his shoulder.
"We will protect you uncle." they both assured him like an adult.
Kal was caught off guard and all he could do was open his mouth, surprised. It was until they patted his shoulder that he got his composure back
"You! I will beat you both today!" He shouted.
Jun and Mabel immediately ran away while Kal ran after them chasing them and all of them were laughing hard, especially Hannah. She laughed so much that her stomach hurt. She really felt happy.
Knock knock
Someone entered the house and shouted, "I'm home!"
Jun and Mabel immediately stopped and looked at each other
"Isn't that dad?" Mabel asked
"He is!"
"Dad is home! Yay!!!" They both screamed and rushed to welcome their dad.
Hannah and Kal also followed behind with bright smiles.
"Welcome home dad!" Jun shouted and hugged Kim
"Welcome home dad!" Mabel who got there after Jun also shouted and hugged her dad too.
"Thank you, kids... How was school today?"
"It was great, dad." they both replied
"Hope you enjoyed your day?"
"Yes, dad... and we found out today that Uncle Kal is a crying baby," Mabel reported and winked at Jun
Kim was somehow confused and he thought something happened to Kal which made him cry in front of the children. He walked closer to Kal
"What happened to you kal? What is it that made you cry?"
"Boss..." Kal was confused and didn't know what to say. The kids had really won him that moment. He felt like knocking their head! Oh, these kids! I will beat them today!
"Don't mind the kids, master... the kids only played their uncle " Hannah bailed Kal out after laughing and mocking him.
Kim finally realized what happened and smiled.
"So you guys played your dear uncle?"
"No, dad." They both replied with a laugh and Kim also laughed. Hannah joined them too while Kal pouted like a cute girl
"I need to freshen up... I'm coming."
Kim said and left the room.
Hannah also left to set the table for Kim while Kal and the kids continued playing and giggling.
"You actually played me right? I will beat you today!"
"No uncle, you can't beat us because you can't catch us."
"Really? Let's see... see how I catch you in seconds."
"Dare us, uncle!" The kids chorused and started running.
"Ik!" Kal ran behind them trying to catch them.
