The office door opens and the silhouette of a man appears in front of Alice and Brian, he was tall, very tall, skin the color of bronze and eyes black onyx, his gaze was demanding authority and his movements commanding respect, all his mannerism was a testimony of several years of service. 'He looked like his mother just a lot taller and broader' thought Brian after several seconds of observation.

Although he and his sister were twins, they did not seem to share many physicals similarities, Brian was the spitting image of his mother with his dark black hair, his big brown eyes and his dimples. He sometimes found his physical features a little too feminine for his liking, his mother often told him that the men in her family were like that but that it was only a phase. Seeing his uncle for the first time before his eyes, he finally felt reassured. Alice was the spitting image of their maternal grandmother according to their father, the same caramel skin as his, with almond-shaped eyes, curls lightened by the sun and a dimple on her left cheek, but despite that, one could still observe a certain resemblance to their uncle.

Weeks had passed since their first meeting. Jack approached them and then settled into one of the seats opposite to them.

"Mr. Loren, you've already met your nephew and your niece Brian and Alice" says the social worker.

Taken from Royal Road, this narrative should be reported if found on Amazon.

"You can call me jack," said their uncle.

"Ok...., here are the papers you need to sign if you have any questions I'll be back in a few minutes"

A short moment went by during which jack read the pile of papers in front of him and then signed them. 'Jack' was saying Brian in his head, he could finally put a face on the name of his mysterious hero uncle who saves the world.

"hum, Brian and Alice" said Jack, pointing his finger at Brian and then Alice.

Alice, who until then was more interested in the tapestry, raised her head and then stared at him, as if she could read his thoughts, a few seconds pass before she resumed to her inspection of the carpet.

"Yep" said Brian

"Ok" responded jack with a bewildered air.

"I know it's a big change for both of you, changing schools and all that, but for me too it's new."

"Ok" said Brian

"Normally, we should have lived here for at least 6 months before we could move, but I asked for a transfer of your case to a social worker in Sindara"

"Ok"

"We're all going to have to adapt to a new way of life, but I'm sure everyone's going to be fine."

"Ok"

Jack stoped for a moment to stare at Alice who was still very interested in tapestry.

"She's ok too," said Brian suddenly.

"She can say it herself"

"Doesn't need to, I'm here"

".... "

The social worker knocked on the door and then opened it.

"If you're done Brian and Alice I'd like to talk to your uncle in private."

Brian took Alice's hand and left the room. An hour later and all the documents signed there were off to Sindara.
