The young boy held his even younger sister in his arms, cradling her as she sucked her thumb. He smiled and looked up to his mother, who was smiling too.
The young boy was never gonna frown again.
"I'm never gonna frown again!" The young boy shouts, gaining a snort from his father and a chuckle from his mother. He gave a confused look but continued holding the kid.
"Who's a good girl! You are!" Aska cooed at the child before him.
"Aska she isn't a dog..-" their mother sighed and pat his head.
Aska leaned towards the touch and smiled softly, nuzzling her hand on his head. "Momma she's mine I wanna keep her!" He puts the baby in front of his mother's face.
His mother smiled softly and pat his shoulder. "I'm glad you like her, I'm sure she likes you too Aska."
Aska's eyes widened in awe and amazement, "Wow! Really?! I have my first fan! Now bow to me baby!"
His father broke out laughing, rewarding his with a shoulder to his rib. "Honey, she's not a servant either. She is your little sister," the father mumbled, rubbing his now sore rib.
"Sister?" He looked down at the baby in judgement. She was really gonna take his spotlight. As a 7 year old he was already plotting his little sister's murder.
"I'm plotting her murder right now so do not speak."
His father laughed once more and walked off to go drink coffee. "Honey- I don't think..-" his mother just sighs and puts her hands up, "Why do I even try?-"
She then walks off as well. Leaving the baby and the 7 year old alone.
"I am your elder so you must respect me!" Aska shouted in the baby's face.
"Hmph."
"Excuse me?"
The baby stuck out her tongue at Aska.
"You little shi-"
His father walks back in with his coffee and tuts. "Ah, ah."
Aska looks up at his father, his idol. "No swearing sweetie."
Aska nodded, "Yes father! Anything for you father!" Aska repeated and somewhat prayed, his mother got a kick out of this.
Aska didn't understand the difference between Servant, Dog, and Sister, but he was willing to learn.
——
He was not willing to learn. It has been an hour and she won't eat her stupid food. "Eat your food already child!" He backhands the child lightly.
"Pffffgt!" She sticks her tongue out again.
"I will not condone with this childish behaviour nor will I react." He turns his head for a moment.
"Pfffhbht!" He turns around and sticks his tongue out.
His mom takes a picture sneakily on a Polaroid and later frames it.
——
Aska was pissed, why? Because the baby ate his drawing.
"You ate my drawing you little asshole! I'm gonna tell mom!" But before he could walk out of the room, the baby grabbed his guitar and messed with the strings when it fell to the floor.
"Don't touch my guitar!" Aska yelped as he grabbed the guitar quickly before she got more of her baby slobber on it.
"You evil gremlin."
She sticks her tongue out.
——
"Mother I want the baby dead."
His mother looks offended jokingly and asks him why. "It's a jerk!"
His mom smiled softly, "Well then teach her not to be."
He looked confused for a moment then nodded and walked back to the baby who was sitting with a patch of flowers in her small hands, half of them were apple blossoms.
Aska feels a smile tugging at his lips and grabs them, "For me?"
The baby claps and coos, Aska just might want the baby to stay after all.
