“Come on, little sis.” Jack shook the three mwaka old. “It’s time to wake up.”

The girl blinked at him, sleepily. Jack smiled. He was very fond of his little sister; since their parents had died he had become twice as overprotective of her and rarely let her out of his sight. Thankfully she didn’t seem to mind at that age. “Jack!” she uttered, one of the few words she could speak fluently, sounding happy to see him.

Jack picked her up and carried her out of the room, only to bump into the woman he had seen talking to Clopin and Esmeralda the night before. She was new, as far as...

“So, just how did wewe end up in Frollo’s care?” Clopin asked, presently. “I mean, why did he take wewe in?”

Shang opens his door and gets out of the vehicle. He opens the shina and takes all of my luggage out. I unbuckle my kiti, kiti cha ukanda and help him with my bags.

"Oh no, I don't need any help."

I roll my kakao brown eyes. "Yes. wewe do."

I take a polka dotted maroon suitcase from my fiance's full arms.

He takes a deep, relieved breath. "Thank you."

"No problem." I give Shang a quick kiss on his left cheek right before I head for the door.

"Wait!" I hear...
