Alpha pouted her tiny lips. She stared sadly at Venus, and those big, round eyes started to fill with tears.
"Alpha, I didn't mean to scare you, " explained Venus with a straight face on, "I was worried and just wanted to let you know that we can't move around when the plane is taking off. It's very dangerous."
"Okay, " replied Alpha as she had her head down. She didn't dare to say anything else.
"Do you understand as well?" asked Venus as she stared sternly at Beta and Gamma.
The two kids nodded immediately. They were worried about Venus reprimanding them.
"That's good, " commented Venus while nodding in satisfaction, "Be good and sit well. We can eat once the plane is in the air and is flying well."
"Can we play games then?" asked Beta meekly.
"That might not be possible, " answered Venus before she explained, "The plane might encounter turbulence while in the air, and that will cause it to tremble. Hence, it is not safe to play games, but we can play video games or watch cartoons."
"Then I'll watch a cartoon, " said Alpha, who started adjusting her seat to choose a cartoon to play.
"Yay! I can play video games, " cheered Beta as she took her tablet out to play.
"That's so boring, " complained Gamma as she pouted and looked out the window before adding, "I wonder how Mommy is now…"
"I miss her too…"
Alpha and Beta instantly became depressed after hearing Gamma talk about their mom.
"I'll be here, kids, " cooed Carla quickly, "I will take care of you in place of your mommy and daddy for the time being, okay?"
"But I miss her, " replied Gamma sadly, "Mommy is injured. I wonder how she is now."
"What happened to her?" asked Carla hurriedly.
"Mommy said that she will come pick us up as soon as she recovers. She can't take care of us now. That is why she sent us to Daddy, " blurted Alpha.
"Daddy is all grouchy and doesn't know how to play with us, " complained Beta while pouting her tiny lips. She looked downright annoyed about it.
"It's fine. I will play with everyone, okay?" promised Carla, "For now, let's be good and rest for a while. We'll go watch cartoons in the lounge later."
"Yay!"
The kids were finally quiet for a while.
Carla sighed internally. The toddlers are naughty, but they are actually quite pitiful.
Daemon is naturally distant and doesn't know how to develop a connection with others. In fact, he can't even interact from the bottom of his heart. He is also lost and confused about how to digest the idea of having kids.
Hence, the kids couldn't receive any paternal love from him.
As for their mom… It seems she is in trouble as well.
That means the kids lack a sense of security… I should really pay more attention to them at a time like this.
"What video game are you girls playing? I can teach you how to win."
Randy, who had been quiet the entire time, suddenly went to the toddlers and offered to teach them.
Carla was proud to see that. Randy acts like he is cold and distant, but he is actually sweet underneath it all. He just doesn't know how to express his feelings.
He feels bad and relates to them when they say that they miss their mommy. That is why he approached them and offered to teach them how to play.
"You know how to play this game, Randy?" asked Alpha curiously.
"You'll see, " replied Randy proudly.
"Wow, you're so good at it, " cheered Beta while clapping.
"Not bad. Finally, I have a worthy opponent, " commented Gamma in a surprised tone.
"You tiny rascal…"
Randy finally grinned.
"Thank the heavens that Randy is here to play with them. I can finally relax now."
Venus exhaled deeply and looked exhausted.
"Haha, you had it tough, Venus, " said Carla as she hugged her daughter and kissed Venus's forehead.
"It's not tough at all. Playing with them is so much more interesting than playing with my dolls, " replied Venus with a smile, "It's a little more troublesome than playing with the pets, though. Pets are more obedient whereas they are a little naughty."
"Hahaha, but I think they listen to you."
"That is because I am smart and know how to use the proper method to teach them!" bragged Venus.
"That's amazing, " complimented Carla.
