Enzo and Avah often start fighting over toys after just a couple of minutes. Enzo always loses to Avah and ends up crying, attracting the attention of the adults.
Sometimes, when Enzo can't win, he throws himself at Avah. They can both sit up but are still a bit wobbly. Enzo's trick usually works-he knocks Avah down and then bites her.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtThough they both lack teeth, they still bite each other. Whether it hurts, only they know. But no matter what happens, it usually ends with Enzo crying.
When Avah wakes up and sees her mother nearby, she wants to follow her. Avah is smart and doesn't cry often, but she knows how to mimic her brother's howl to get attention. When she does, her mother gently picks her up. It turns out that the crying child does get the milk.
Seeing Serenity, Avah opened her arms, asking to be held. Serenity, noticing Jane didn't mind, leaned over and picked Avah up.
Serenity knew it's often advised for pregnant women not to hold others' children, but since Jane didn't mind, she didn't worry.
Jane wasn't concerned about superstitions. As long as her children liked the person holding them, she was okay with it.
"Avah woke up early," Serenity commented while holding her and walking beside Jane.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmJane replied, "She usually wakes up at dawn, plays a bit, eats, and then goes back to sleep until noon." Serenity kissed Avah's cheek and said, “She's probably hungry. Feed her smilk powder, and she'll likely fall back asleep." Avah rested her head on Serenity's shoulder, hugging her neck with both hands. This tender gesture melted Serenity's heart. She smiled at Jane and said, "No wonder my grandma wants to take Avah home—she's too adorable to resist." Jane chuckled and mentioned, "Grandma York probably feels awkward visiting often because we watch her so closely when she's here. She jokes that we guard against her like she's a thief. Last tshe visited, she told my grandma she'd have a great-granddaughter one day and would bring her over too. She insisted my grandma won't be the only one with a great-granddaughter." Serenity laughed, "Those two old ladies are like playful children.” "Grandma loves girls. She treats us granddaughters-in-law like her own granddaughters."
Before Serenity married Zachary, she had always liked the old lady, and the feeling was mutual; otherwise, Zachary wouldn't have been pressured into marrying her.
"Seren, are you worried?" Jane asked with concern. "Did you not sleep Well? You just got here yesterday, and you're up so early today."
Jane was worried Serenity wasn't adjusting well. When she saw m Serenity walking in the yard, she rushed out, leaving her still-sleeping husband and son behind. When Ben and Enzo woke up, and Enzo didn't see his mother, he'd start crying and wake the whole household.
