In the end, Nikola had been saved by Nathaniel knocking loudly on the door and complaining that Ryota was eating the blankets. Nikola thought that the boy exaggerated it all.
But when Wei Caihong pulled a key out and let him go to the children, Nikola rushed to their room only to see Ryota…chewing on a blanket with another one torn on the floor.
He calmly went to him and tugged the cloth from his mouth. Ryota growled and attempted to snatch it back.
"My teeth itch, Pa," he said, and Nikola nodded. They would have to pay for the blankets. He looked around the room for any other damage, but fortunately found nothing.
"You will probably be changing them soon. If a tooth goes loose, then tie it to a string and run in the opposite direction of whatever you tied it to," Nikola said.
It had been centuries since he had to deal with a small child. The last one being Nathaniel. So, he wasn't sure about what other advice he could give.
