"richie?" ruth said with her innocence eyes.

"yes?" the boy replied while walking into the kitchen.

"who was at the door?" ruth took in a sharp inhale and whispered, "was it daddy?"
richie turned around quickly and picked up ruth, kissing her on her forehead.
"he's not gonna come back, i promise you."

ruth giggles and scrambled out of his arms, brief the mature seven year old she was, she then asked,
"soooooo, was it a girlllll?"
richie dramatically gasped.
"of course not! if it was thy lady, i would have introduced her to you, dearest ruth."
ruth giggled happily.

"you know, you can be a good big brother sometimes."
"i try." richie bowed.
