Hearthe's powers

"You are amazing, Hearthe!" Caesar bent over to pat its head and spoke softly.

Hearthe understood that it was just praised by its father and its eyes shone brightly while its long tail behind started dancing excitedly at this sudden praise; though it did not understand what its father just praised it for.

It did not care, for all it wanted was its father's recognition and also his happiness.

Caesar's smile widened when he looked at Hearthe's dancing body.

"Okay! You play around here. I will go inside and rest for a while. Alright?" Caesar asked Hearthe, to which it obediently nodded its head.

"Good girl," Caesar once again praised her to show his appreciation towards her obedience.

He went back inside and thought to rest for a while but when he looked to the side he found a few small bags filled with seeds of many types.

Before, he never cared about them because the soil in his backyard had turned useless long ago and thus there was no need to use these seeds ever again.

But now that he had Hearthe, he smiled. It has been so long since something good had happened in his life. And all these were because of his newly born baby.

He took the bag of seeds and brought them back to the backyard.

As soon as his leg touched the ground, he felt Hearthe spiraling around his ankle like an anklet.

He looked down at his leg and found that she really looked like an accessory to his leg.

He felt that she was really cute like this and chuckled.

He did not make her leave his leg and slowly walked forwards. He was careful enough to not hurt Hearthe with each and every step.

Then he started working on all the seeds he had.

Though he wanted to rest, when he saw Hearthe, he felt energetic. He really wanted to see if all the seeds he had would be able to grow in this useless land with the help of the powers of his Hearthe.

As he worked on them, Hearthe looked on for a couple of minutes before she understood what her father wanted to do.

She then removed her body from Caesar's ankle, before she started helping him.

She could very easily dig up the soil, allowing Caesar to finish his work sooner than the time he was supposed to take.

Within an hour, he finished all the work before he stood straight and stretched all his muscles.

This time he really was exhausted, though Hearthe was the one who had done most of the work.

Hence he once again greeted Hearthe, before he went back into the house to take a nap.

Maybe because of the hard labor he had done just now, as soon as his head touched the pillow, he fell asleep.

He did not know for how long he slept before he woke up naturally and looked outside the window to find that it was almost dark.

He got out of the bed slowly before he heard his stomach growling with hunger. Once he got out of bed, he recalled that he was now no longer alone but had Hearthe with him.

Yes, he has not fed his baby since the time of her birth. Is she alright?

Oh no! What should he do if something happened to his baby because of his irresponsibility?

As soon as he thought that something might have happened to Hearthe, he did not care about his hunger and ran outside in search of his baby in a hurry.

He was really scared as he frantically looked around but as soon as he came to the back yard, he found that something was different.

Could he even say 'something'? It should be 'everything', right?

His backyard, which had been bare for a while now, was no longer the same.

The ground that was once full of weeds and wildflowers was now filled with greenery.

Not any random greenery like the weed green. Instead it was full of vegetation.

Every single seed he had planted before he fell asleep had now come alive.

There was no longer any bare land but instead there were only plants, trees and they were covered with colorful flowers and fruits.

The aroma of the beautiful flowers and delicious fruits filled the entire area.

It was like a naturally made room freshener that made the entire air smell lovely and also tasty.

If there was any man that was suffering from hunger, he may feel his stomach filled with just taking in the scent of this air.

Caesar couldn't help but blink his eyes multiple times to check if he was looking at reality or if he was just hallucinating.

"How long did I sleep?" he asked himself out loud.

There are a few trees that would take a few years to grow to their full sizes but he could already see them standing fully grown in his backyard.

"I should be hallucinating."
