Javier puffed out his chest dramatically and turned to Liana with a gleam in his eyes.
"You remember my dream, right, Liana?"
Liana tilted her head, pretending to be confused. "Which one, Young Master? To marry me, or...?"
Javier grinned and pointed a finger at her. "That's my main dream, Liana! Don't ever forget it!" He paused for effect, then leaned closer, his grin getting even bigger. "I mean the other dream!"
Liana raised an eyebrow. "And what dream would that be, Young Master?"
Javier threw his hands into the air and laughed maniacally. "An army of pekko! Kekekekekeke!"
Liana sighed, shaking her head as Gloria chuckled beside her.
"Of course, how could I forget?" Liana muttered, her tone exasperated but affectionate.
Javier placed his hands on his hips, grinning smugly. "Picture it! Hundreds of majestic pekko, stomping the ground, their beaks shining in the sunlight, carrying an unstoppable army—MY army! Kekekekeke!"
