Marks POV:

After a good nap, Alex waked up and didn't disturb me and take the paperweight on my table and playing with it in his own world...

I tried to finish my entire work very quickly and looked at the Time, it's around 6.30 pm...

So, it's Time to surprise Anna with his little brother...

I am very excited to see her cheerful expression...

When I am riding back to my home, Anna called me...

If I lifted her call, she could hear the Alex voice who sat beside me and speaking non-stop by asking doubts about play station, and there may be a chance that he ruins the surprise, so I didn't lift my call and messaged her that I would be there in 10 minutes...

I am very excited to surprise Anna, the moment I reached home I take Alex into the dinning room and help him to sit on the chair near the dining table and went to Anna's room...

But the moment I entered, she came to me with her crying face and hugged me by taking deep sobbings...

I didn't understand what happened to her and why she is crying...

Mark: "Hey, Anna, what happened..?"

"Did my uncle behaved severely with you..?"

(I doubt my uncle because he is in this house and he may target Anna, but she strikes her head as No and slowly started by explaining about Alex...

At first, I wonder that why she is telling me about Alex when I am going to surprise her...

Later she explained to me that she called to the school and they informed that Alex is on leave, so she is thinking it's John...

If I really didn't take Alex with me in the past, John may kidnap Alex to blackmail us...

Luckily Alex is safe now but looking at my girl tears I feel sorry that I didn't tell her about him, so after a little bit teasing with her, I pulled her to the dining table to show Alex to her...

She hesitates first, but with my force, she is coming to the dining table, and when we are stepping down and a few more steps to go she paused and stand like a statue and looking at Alex from his back...

She didn't see his face yet, but she identified its Alex...

I went close to Anna and tapped her shoulder to walk...

She looked at me and still in shock and didn't understand what's happening and take a few more steps to reach Alex...

Alex still holding the paperweight took from my office and busy in playing on the dining table...

When she is just a two feet gap from Alex chair, she confirmed it's Alex and tears started flowing from her eyes by looking at him...

I didn't interrupt her and enjoying by looking at her happy tears when she identified her brother...

She immediately called Alex by his name...

Anna: "Alexx...."

Alex immediately turned and looked at Anna, and he surprised by looking at her sister...

Anna can't control her emotions and started crying again by taking deep sobbings by looking at her little brother...

I know she takes stress that John may kidnap Alex and torturing him, but when she saw Alex in a safe, she outburst her emotions...

I immediately went close to her and consoled her by tapping on her back...

She looked at me to confirm again that it's a dream or true...

I nodded my head as yes and looked at Alex...

She immediately lifted Alex and hugged him very tightly and crying...

Alex face turned to dull when she is crying by holding him...

So I try to convince Anna to control her emotions...

Mark: Anna, it's okay...

Alex is safe now, and he is about to cry if you continue your sobbings...

(She understands what I mean and after a few seconds she controls her emotions but still hugged Alex more tightly...

After a few minutes she makes Alex sit on the dining table, and we both sit on the chairs opposite to Alex...

She still holds Alex hand very caressingly and looked at me with her happy swollen eyes...

I smiled at her and started laughing to tease her...

She beat on my hand and put a cute pout face again...

Anna: So you tease me again...

Mark: me...

When?

Anna: When I was requesting you about Alex a few minutes ago, you teased me that I am daydreaming...

(I immediately laughed at her...

In between our conversation Alex interrupted again...)

Alex: Anna sis.., where is mama...

(Sudden silent takes place when he asked about their mother...

Even Anna doesn't know what to say with this little kid...

So I interrupted to convince him...

Mark: your mama will come soon...

Until then we should play the play station, okay?

(His face lights up with sparks when he heard about play station but Anna looked at me in confusion...

I raised my head as what...

Anna: We should tell him the truth about my mother, or else he may hope that my mother will come...

Mark: Yes, of course, but he doesn't know what exactly the meaning of a dead person...

How will you explain to him..?

(Anna nods her head slowly as Yes...)

Mark: When Time comes, he will understand everything...

Our job is to make him happy all the way...
