"Nooo! Too high!"
"I'll get it! I got it! YES!"
"Noah! Throw hard at Uncle ah! Don't let him catch it!"
"Hahaha! Do you think I'm a weakling ah?"
The children's shouts and laughter echoed in the orphanage grounds, caused by Calix who beckoned them to play catch earlier. All of them gathered in the front yard, eagerly wanting to throw and catch the ball.
Calix initiated the game by tossing the ball into the air. The children were encouraged to catch it and throw it back to him. The game had been going on for more than half an hour, still showing no signs of stopping.
At the same time, Leslie, Director Li and Mrs. Su sat on the wooden platform under the tree, watching Calix and the children engaged in the game. The extending branches thick with leaves provided them some shade.
The small Calliope was also included. She left her toy Mimo to Leslie, saying the crochet fox would accompany the latter when she was away playing.
