Volume 3 Chapter 1: Sibling hug

"This is interesting," Keith stated as he stared at his book. He was reading in the pergola. This had become a place for everyone to relax. While he was doing that,

"Keith! I'm finished with the garden!" Fira shouted as she flew back to his shoulders.

Keith smiled as he closed the book, "Thanks a lot, Fira. Here's a cookie,"

"Yay!" Fira munched on the cookie. Keith looked at the garden that turned sparkly. He finished tending to the gardens first. And Fira made the next move as she worked her magic on the vegetables. Keith looked down,

"These vegetables are going to be delicious,"

"Young Master, it's time for your training," While Keith marveled at his garden, May walked over to him. She looked different now. May had become a mature lady.

Her childish facial features became more mature.

Keith nodded, "Thank you, May."

Keith didn't wait as he went to his room to change to his training gear. While he headed to the barracks, he greeted the maids and butlers along the way.

"The young master has become so handsome now!"

"I think I might faint from him!"

"He was such a cute child. But he's so masculine now!"

The maids couldn't help but murmur together as they stared at Keith. They were charmed by his looks!

The child had become a teen now. It was seven years since he opened the shop. And he had grown even taller than before! He was over six feet tall! And his features were abnormal!

No one could stand his charming face. It was too destructive!

When Keith arrived at the barracks,

"Hya!" "Ha!" Two childish voices screamed with force as they waved their sword down. A smile formed on Keith's face as he stared at them.

He turned to Derek, "Derek, how are the two doing?"

"They have good instincts for their age,"

Derek's face had changed as well. His facial features became more pronounced.

"Haha, that's great," Keith turned to the sight of the two little children fighting against Eric.

"Come! The two of you got this!" Eric was all smiles as he blocked the attacks coming from the two kids,

"Haa!" But the two continued to scream as they swung their swords at him. It was clear they were trying really hard. But after some time, Keith and the rest could tell they were getting tired.

"Good job, you two. Take a break," Eric clapped his hands together. When that was said, the two children dropped to the floor. Their cheeks were red from fighting so much. The two were going to go sit under the tree. But they spotted Keith.

"Big brother!" The two children shouted. They quickly dashed over to him without a thought! The two little angels grabbed onto his legs and stared at him,

"Did you watch us?!" The little boy questioned.

"Of course I was! The two of you were awesome out there," Keith cheered.

"Heh," The boy and girl giggled when they heard that. Keith continued to pat their heads. Such little angels. These two were Keith's younger brother and sister.

A few years after the bakery's opening, Sophia and William had more children. And these two little angels were them.

"Hey! I was watching the whole time! Why doesn't your big brother get hugs?" Derek questioned! Keith came in the middle! He was watching the entire time!

"And what about the one who trained you?!" Eric tilted his head. But the younger of the two, Laura, stated, "But Big Brother Eric is smelly,"

"!"

"Oof," Keith and Derek coughed when they heard that. That one move caused 10 million points of damage to Eric.

"What about me?" Derek pointed. He didn't train and smelled alright.

"Big Brother Keith is better!" The older twin, Leon, stated as he hugged Keith's legs tighter.

"..." The two older siblings had spaced-out expressions. They got up and walked to a corner. The damage from the words of the two children was strong on them.

Keith tried to ease the children, "Leon, Laura, you can't say that." This is all a misunderstanding. Keith understood. Despite saying those things, the two didn't mean what Eric and Derek thought.

"Hmm?" The two tilted their heads, clueless as to what he meant.

"Don't you like Big Brother Eric and Derek?"

"Of course!" "Mmhmm!" When that was said, their expressions did a complete 180!

"Yeah!" "Of course, you wouldn't hate us!" Eric and Derek didn't hesitate to hug the two without a thought. Keith shook his head. But,

"You're getting in on this!" "Yeah!" Somehow, Keith was also brought into this bear hug.

"We're missing the last one," Derek stated. They were missing one other person.

"What are you doing?" Speak of the devil. Alvin walked over and saw the group hugging one another.

"Sibling hug. We can't miss the last one," Eirc stated.

"Oh! Let me in!" Alvin didn't wait as he jumped into the hug. Like that, the six siblings hugged one another.
