《(TinCan) I Hate U.》face-time
Advertisement
Can - actually… I am more than just friends.
Teen - really? Are you his family?
Can looked down at Teen and laughed.
Can - what is your name? (Ignored Teen's question.)
Teen - my name is Teen.
Can - (raised an eyebrow up.) Oh really? So you the boy who helped my niece, Mia.
Teen was a little confused but then he remembered the girl named Mia.
Teen - Yes! (Eyes widen) she is your niece?
Can - (nodded and knelt down to Teen) She wants to see you and the other Mia very much but you see... she has to go back home. So I promised her that I will find you guys and face-time her. Are you okay with that?
Teen - (happy) oh okay. I want to see her too.
Can - do you want to face-time her now?
Teen - Yes!
Teen ran happily to the crowds of kids and grabbed hold of his little sister, Mia. He pulled her with him.
***Bangkok
Tul and his daughter arrived back in Krung Thep. Mia was sitting in the living room, watching T.V.
Tul walked to his daughter handing her the phone.
Tul - Mia, guess who called?
Mia - (quickly turned to her dad happily.) Uncle Can?!
Tul nodded.
Mia - (grabbed the phone) thank you, father.
Tul smiled and went to the kitchen where his wife was making dinner.
Mia - (looked at the phone and saw Can was face-timing her) uncle Can, Hello!
Can - hi Mia, how are you?
Mia - I was waiting for your call, uncle Can.
Can - I made you a promise, right? I never go back on my words. (Lowered his phone) look who's here with me.

Can faced his phone to Teen and little Mia. Mia smiled brightly at them.
Teen - (waved) Hello Mia, how are you?
Mia 2 - Hi, big sister Mia! (jumping up and down)
Mia - hi Teen! Hi Mia! I'm sorry I didn't come and say goodbye.
Teen - it's alright. We are not mad.
Mia 2 - next time I will tell Big Brother to take us to you.
Mia - (nodded happily) really? You and Teen have to come for sure, okay? I'll be waiting!
Teen - (formed a sour smile and poked his sister.) Hey, don't just say stuff that comes out of your mouth.
Mia 2 - (looked at Teen) why? I wanna go to where big sister Mia lives.
Teen - but--
Mia - (frowned) why Teen? You don't want to come and see me?
Teen - (guilty chuckle) hehe… of course, I want to...but it's big brother's decision. He might say no.
Mia - oh… (looking sad.)
Teen - but don't worry! We will see each other for sure! (quickly add)
Mia - (nodded) okay…
After the kids say goodbye, Can held the phone to his face.
Mia - uncle Can, thank you.
Can - you're welcome.
Mia - (frowned again) I hope their big brother say yes so they can come and see me.
Can blinked his eyes. Ever since Tin left, Mia has been lonely and never really interact with kids her own age. Until now, she finally found the friends she likes. And the friends she likes were raised by Tin, her real uncle. Not so surprising at all.
Can - Mia…
Mia - hmm?
Can - I'll show you something but you have to promise me, you will keep it a secret, okay?
Mia - (sniffed) okay.
Can turned his phone to where Tin was at. He was still playing with the kids. One of the kids jumped onto Tin's back and Tin ran, piggybacking him while the other kids ran after.
Mia's eyes widen at the phone screen. She placed one hand to her mouth while her eyes twinkle with tears.
He's...her uncle.
Her uncle Tin.

The Merchant Prince Book 1: Returning Home
Enter a world of deceit and assassins. Augustus DeCastellian is a member of a wealthy merchant family, with ports all over the known world. He is sent on a voyage to new lands to open trade routes, but when he returns he will need to fight, using his tools of manipulation and cunning, for what he is owed.Author's note: This story is somewhat slow-paced, especially in comparison to the norm on Royal Road. The first three chapters act almost as a prologue, to give you a feel for what the rest of the story will be like. So, I suggest new readers try to get to the end of chapter 3 before deciding if this story is for them.A few of my reviews have said that this story is abnormal for Royal Road. I agree with that sentiment, at least based on what I've read on the site. It was just an idea that was in my head, that I began trying to write once my hobbies were cancelled due to the virus. I found Royal Road after I started writing it. Honestly, it's probably not even tailored for the web-novel format. But it's the story I wanted to tell. Discord: https://discord.gg/sk63gep
