"Pretty sister!you came!" A boy about four years old came running toward her.
Rose stared at him.Little buddy with jet black hair,his cute little hands were spreading to her.Her adoptive brother. Rose and her grandparents adopted him few years back.She smiled and took him in her arms.She placed a kiss at his chubby cheeks.
"Baby,I missed you." Rose ran her fingers into his hair.
"I missed you too." He hugged her neck.
"George,I heard that you are skipping school nowadays.Is it true?" Rose carried him inside the house.
"Ummm....No...It's not true!" George jumped off from her arm.His face was clearly showing guilt when a little child lied and got caught.
"You are lying,George!" Rose rolled her eyes to him.
"Actually pretty sister.I don't like the teacher." George said with his puppy dog eyes.
"Why?Did they harass you?" Rose was surprised.
"No." George pouted his cute little lips.
"Then?"
"They are not as beautiful as you."
"What if they are not beautiful!How is it related to your lesson!" Rose exclaimed.
"I don't like them.I like you!You teach me." George hugged her legs.
"Really,baby you like me!" Rose pinched his cheek.
"Yes.I will be your man when I grow up and will chase all the men who bothers you." George placed a kiss on her cheek.
Rose smiled.
"George....baby where are you?Why can't I find you??"Paul shouted from his room.
" I am busy,grandpa."George shouted back.
"What are you doing!"
"I am baking cake with grandma and pretty sister."
Paul went toward the kitchen.He rested his back on the kitchen door.He stared at the three happy looking face.They were very excited while making the cake.Paul smiled.He always wished for these happy moments.It would be very nice if Rose always stayed with them.

"Two cup flour,half cup cocoa powder,one cup sugar,two eggs....There you go...Goerge baby stir it....." Rose said while she was putting her hair into a bun.
George started stirring it.His little hand was moving with rhythm.Suddenly some of the batter splashed on his little face.
"Ouchh...." George shouted.
"What happened!" Rose and Zain stared at him.Rose burst out laughter to see George like this in mess.
"What is funny here?" George was angry.His cute small nose was expanding with anger.
"You look funny,baby!" Rose got tears in her eyes due to extreme laughter.
"Pretty sister,you are mean!I am always handsome." George pouted.
"When did I say you are not handsome!!!Being funny is a good thing,you know baby!" Rose pinched his nose.
"You think so!" George's eyes lit up.
"Hey!Lovey dovey pair!Grandpa is also here." Paul said.
"You know Paul,When Rose comes here,we are nobody to him." Zain said with a fake pained expression.
"No,I love both of you too!I love pretty sisters also!" George jumped off in Zain's arm.He started patting her head as if he was trying to console her.
Zain and Paul both smiled.This kid was really smart.He very well knew how to convince everyone.
At night.....
George was sleeping with her.Generally he sleeps with Paul and Zain.Whenever Rose comes,he used to sleep in her arm.Rose opened her eyes.She was feeling something was wrong.She sensed some vibrating sensation while sleeping.Her mind was blank for a second.Then she felt that something in her hand was severely shaking.She then recalled she was sleeping with George.She looked at him.He was shivering badly.She hurriedly checked his temperature.His temperature was very high and his whole body was sweating.She started panicking.Whats happened with him!!Why he is shaking so badly!

"Grandma,Grandpa!" She shouted at the top of her lungs.
Paul and Zain were sleeping.They woke up hearing her voice.
"What happened!!" Paul said.They both hurried to her room.
"What happened Rose??Is there anything wrong?" Zain asked.They both were in Rose's room.
"Grandma,he is shaking badly!His temperature is very high....What should I do???" Rose was pulling her hair in nervousness.
"Bring the medicine,Zain." Paul said to Zain.
Zain hurriedly went to bring the medicine and came back with a pill and a glass of water.
She pulled George and sat him in her lap.George was already awake.She fed him the pill with the medicine.
"Dont worry!Nothing will happen to him." Paul comforted Rose.After a few minutes George was in better conditions.His shivering subsided and his temperature also lowered.He is good now.
Rose took George in her arms and his head rested on her neck.
"Baby,you stole peanut butter again." Rose asked him.
George was silent as his stealing got caught.
Rose placed him in the bed and she sat on her knee in front of him.
"Baby,you know that you are allergic to peanut.Dont you?" Rose asked, staring at his grey eyes.
"I know,pretty sister." His grey eyes were showing uncountable guilt.
"Then why did you steal?"
"I thought nothing would happen!" He lowered his eyes.
"If something would happen,who will protect me from those bad guys??You promised me to be my man.For this you need to be strong.How can you be so careless!" Rose said as if the kid infront of him was a grown up man.He will understand everything that she was trying to explain.
"I am sorry,pretty sister.I will never have peanut butter again!" George said.
"Pinky promise." Rose spread her finger.
"Pinky promise." George coiled his finger with him.
Meanwhile,in front of a pool full of piranhas Kelvin Kyle was half seated in his expensive lounge.His upper body was shirtless and only cloth in his body now is just shorts.His beautiful delicious mascular body was a piece of art if anyone wants to describe it.

Child of the Ancients: An Apocalypse LitRPG
It all started in the middle of Dante's nap. He wanted to sleep his life away, but the system denied his request. Instead, it began to transform the Earth, integrating it into the multiverse by granting everyone stats and skills. He was talented, or so the system thought. And that meant he needed to be challenged. After being sent into a deadly cavern, Dante strives for the future he's always desired. But when he learns about the secrets hidden within him, he's shaken to his very core. He wishes for the nightmare to end until something goes wrong. [The world will end in one year.] Instead of everyone receiving a relatively gentle tutorial, the people of Earth are deemed redundant. Dante makes it his goal to save as many people as he can before the world ends, but with billions of lives at stake, he might have to turn into a monster before he can become a hero. Planned updates (2500+ words): M/W/F. 12pm AEST/ 9am EST. M-F during Writeathon. [participant in the Royal Road Writathon challenge] Author's Note: All system apocalypse novels seem to jump straight over the apocalypse itself, which I find very sad. I don't want this to turn into a typical fantasy novel in about ten chapters. Instead, I hope to explore the destruction of society and how things would look if superpowers suddenly appeared in the real world. Before the real apocalypse happens, of course. There will be base building, and likely romance once things settle down. Also dragons, because they are awesome :)

8 185The Saga of Armageddon: The Call of Crows
Bjorn Stormtamer's world has been turned upside down in more ways than one. His shipmates have left him for dead on an island for quarantining victims of a disease that he now has. His partner in battle despises him, his family thinks he's dead and everyone else thinks it was good riddance. Moreover, the world is under attack by a virulent plague that kills with light and an empire from the east whose intentions are unknown but whose methods are merciless and bloodthirsty. Little does he know that the world itself is nearly on the brink of cosmic collapse.But when a bold, charismatic woman from another nation seeks him out, Bjorn discovers that the plague he has was not a plague at all, but a trial. A trial to determine who is worthy to wield the power of gods in order to give humanity a fighting chance against the winds of fate. This novel was written 2 years ago and isn't exactly my best work. I'm still improving my skills, but I encourage you to enjoy it for what it's worth. ALSO, the whole plague thing was written about before the COVID pandemic. The plague is fake and actually magic in the story, but that has NOTHING to do with real world events. I am under NO CIRCUMSTANCE trying to make ANY kind of statement with it. Please just enjoy the story and stay safe.
