Taken aback, Doc was frozen for a moment before he gently stroked Laurence’s head and asked tenderly, “Why do you ask that?”“I’ve never seen my birth parents. I don’t even know what they looked like. If they were alive, why wouldn’t they come look for me? How could I have been left on the roadside for Mommy Jane to pick up?”The little boy was sharp. He could piece things together.“Sonny’s parents are divorced, but he still sees his dad often. He lives with his mom, and even when she works far away, she comes back to see him.“But I don’t have that. I was thinking, if they’re not looking for me or coming to see me, maybe they’ve become stars in the sky, watching over me.”Doc hugged him tighter and sighed. “Laurence, you have us. Your Mommy Jane and Uncle Ben treat you as their own and all of the Johnsons truly think of you as family.“Your birth parents might not be around anymore, but so many of us love and care for you. You have to grow up happily and without worries.”Laur

All he needed to know was that sisters were not picked up from garden swings.That meant Sonny could not just bring home a bunch of sisters. Ha! Take that. He had a sister, but Sonny did not.“Sir, do you miss Crybaby Ollie?”Doc flicked his forehead lightly. “All children cry. Don’t give my precious grandson nicknames. He’s so cute, he should be called Ollie cutie.”Oliver was the apple of his eye.“You still cry sometimes yourself, so no more calling him that.”Rubbing his forehead, Laurence muttered, “But Oliver is the biggest crier. Was I like that as a baby? Probably not. Mommy Jane says I was very well-behaved and that the moment I saw her, I clung to her and called her ‘Mommy.’”She always said they were destined to meet.“You’re still a child. What, you think you’re all grown up? You’re just a little four-year-old rascal. But honestly, I don’t know what you were like at Oliver’s age.”Jane had found Laurence when he had just learned to walk, his speech still babyish. H

Little Oliver was afraid the older boys would snatch the toys back.Of course, every time he stole their toys, the consequences were the same. He would either get shoved down or whacked with a toy, followed by his ear-splitting wails echoing through the manor.These aged one or two had not learned the concept of sharing yet.They played together daily and fought just as often.Connor, the one who had just learned to walk, was the worst. Though not the eldest, he insisted on being the boss and dared to bully his older cousins while also picking on the younger ones.In short, he was a little tyrant.The only one he feared was his twin sister.When the siblings fought over toys, Connor always lost. He would throw tantrums while Chloe watched him cry triumphantly.Losing to her repeatedly taught him early that his sister was not to be trifled with.Another thing was that although they were too young to speak clearly, the kids already knew how to read the adults’ moods. They unders

Doc ruffled Laurence’s hair and said, “Laurence, you must study hard and train diligently. You must learn everything I teach you.“The life you have today didn’t come easily. Just surviving and growing up will be no small feat.”The boy had no idea how many people had sacrificed to protect him or how much effort had gone into ensuring he could live, grow, and thrive.Laurence only half-understood. He promised, “Sir, I’ve been studying and training seriously lately. I haven’t been slacking!”He still did not know about his origins, the bloody vengeance tied to his past, or how many were searching for him.Loved by Mommy Jane, Uncle Ben, his teacher, and his teacher’s mentor, Laurence lived carefreely. Though he did not know his birth parents, it did not dampen his happiness.The only mystery was the strange totem on his back. His teacher had warned him never to speak of it. Even when his best friend Sonny accidentally saw it, Aunt Seren had sternly told him to keep it secret.Lau

“Sonny, why didn’t Aunt Seren give you a little sister, too, like Mommy Jane did for me? I have brothers and a sister. It’s so much better.”After a brief silence, Sonny answered, “Aunt Ser said my little sister is still playing on the swing in the garden and doesn’t want to come play with me yet. But when she gets tired of swinging, she’ll come find me.”“Which garden is she playing in? Can we go find her? We could swing, too.”Sonny replied honestly, “Aunt Ser didn’t tell me where. I don’t know where to look either.”Laurence huffed. “You should’ve asked more clearly.”Sonny was silent for a moment before he retorted, “Then I’ll ask Aunt Ser tomorrow where she is. I’ll go find her and bring back two little sisters!”Laurence immediately chimed in, “Ask Aunt Seren where to find sisters. I want to go too! I love little sisters. They’re way cuter than baby boys. Boys cry too much, but sisters are sweet. I want lots of sisters.”Sonny said, “Let me find one first, then I’ll tell y

Sonny fell silent for a moment before finally saying, “My little cousin will learn to talk too. He’ll call me ‘big brother’ one day. He’ll grow up, and so will we.”He still remembered when he first met Laurence. He had only been two or three years old then. Now, he was already five and had grown much taller.“Laurence, my mom wants to take me to Jensburg for school. I don’t want to go. What should I do?”Realizing he could not outshine Laurence in the sibling-bragging department, Sonny quickly changed the subject.The two little friends always had plenty to talk about anyway. They said whatever came to mind, whether the other understood or not.Laurence asked, “Where’s Jensburg? Is it not fun there? Why does your mom want you to study there?”“My mom said her job is in Jensburg. She’ll be staying there long-term and doesn’t want to be apart from me, so she’s taking me there to study. But I don’t want to leave Aunt Ser.”Laurence replied dismissively, “What’s the big deal? I did
