I glanced at Sil. He had a smile on his face as he held his little hands up, moving them around as if he were moving a steering wheel.
Mrs. Daikiri giggled. "He must be dreaming of driving again."
I nodded. He really loved his vroom-vrooms.
Sil groaned and lowered his arms as he rolled. "No, Mommy!"
"Baby, I'm here," Mrs. Daikiri said, picking him up.
Sil panted and hugged her. "Vroom-vroom went boom..."
"Shh, it's okay. You're safe, sweetheart," she said, cradling him. "It was just a dream. Your vroom-vroom is safe and sound."
I couldn't help but feel a pang of sympathy for Sil. Even for adults, having a car blow up in front a person like that would've been traumatizing. More so for a child such as Sil.
Alli patted her brother's head. "It's okay, Sil. I'll protect you."
Sil smiled slightly.
Mrs. Daikiri kissed his forehead. "We won't let anything bad happen to you, sweetie."
