"Speaking of babies. Your brother is recovering well," Sienna said with a smile, making Sahara giggle in response.
Her brother, Sinnan, was a big man nearing his 50s. However, he had been her parents' only child for almost two decades and her mother had treated him as her only baby until she was born.
They didn't expect her to come to the world at all. They called her the 'surprise blessing'. Anyway, this was why her mother always called him baby when at home—to his chagrin, of course.
Even after he had created his own family, they would still call him baby. As a little kid, she used to laugh at it a lot. She remembered him ruffling her hair to punish her, and she would glare at him to stop, which ended up making the entire family laugh.
Sinnan was also quite strong—a rare metal elementalist—and had carried the defense of the territory for as long as she could remember. Despite her laughing at him, she really thought he was the strongest in the world.
