qDanrique fell silent at their pleas. Some time later, he asked, “Uh, did Uncle Zachary treat you well?”
“Yes, he is awesome!” Alpha nodded. “Uncle Zachary told us stories, prepared breakfast for us, taught us how to
ride a horse, and even brought us to have fun in the woods!”
“We even took a family portrait with Uncle Zachary!” Beta chimed in. “When we got tired, Uncle Zachary hoisted us
up to his shoulders! He's as tall as a mountain. We're not afraid at all because I can hold on to his hair.”
“I held on to his ears so I wouldn't fall down,” Gamma said. “Even if we fall down, he'll catch us.”
“Right!” Alpha nodded fervently. “Ellie said they used to sit on Uncle Zachary's shoulders when they were young.
They are used to it.”
“Uncle Zachary's shoulders are wide, so I won't fall!” the children chattered excitedly. “Uncle Zachary has a nice
voice. He looks handsome when he tells us stories. He—”
“Okay, okay. That's enough!” Danrique interjected. “Since it's nothing, go to bed. Children need to sleep more to
grow up to be clever adults.”
Though he seemed unfazed, he felt uncomfortable deep down to hear his children praising his arch-enemy happily.
