Author's Note: I felt that the previous chapter with the gang was somehow lacking. So I decided to write another chapter dedicated to them to show more of the events that is currently unfolding on their side.
This season has a lot of good anime shows that almost every day there is a new episode that I looked forward to watching. When I get home from work it keeps me distracted and occupied seriously though... it kept me from writing continuously > . >

~~~Blake~~~
When I woke up the next morning for some reason my body felt light and hungry. So I went down the kitchen and saw the children merrily preparing for breakfast.
There's one chopping some carrots, a few who were peeling potatoes and another that was tiptoeing on a step-stool while stirring the pot. Lastly, two little children are racing back and forth holding the condiments with their small hands. In order not to bother them with their preparation I headed straight towards the dining room.
When I got there, a few were already sitting at the table waiting, so I silently sat next to them. Twenty minutes had passed and the children at the dining room had increased to about twenty or more, the others were probably still asleep upstairs.
(Clang! Clang!)
"Wakey-wakey! Time to eat!"
A small girl entered the dining room while hitting a wok with a ladle. It was slightly deafening that the other children covered their ears as she continues to hit it.
"Breakfast is ready!"
The smell of soup filled the dining room as the children who were cooking earlier pushed a serving cart that was at least double their size. It had this huge bowl that was almost filled to the brim with soup, which had made it wobble from side to side.
"Good morning." [Blake]
While they were laying down the dishes and utensils I greeted them. They all froze and stopped what they were doing as they shot me a weird look.
Have I said something weird?
"Brother Blake?" A little one next to me looked up and asked.
"Is... something the matter?" [Blake]
Then, they all swarmed at me. Poking my face, pulling my cheek, checking my eyes and messing with my hair as if looking for something...
"Uh... um..." [Blake]
"Brother Blake is cured!!"
I was embraced by the children all over.
"Cured?" [Blake]
"Because you seemed to always be gloomy..."
So they were worried about me... I feel the need to apologize to them for all the troubles that I've caused till now.
"I'm fine now, thanks to all of you who took care of me and sorry for worrying you guys..." [Blake]
"No need to thank us! We are just returning the favor you and onee-chan gave to us!" [Children]
"Ah..." They all muttered and went silent... They might've thought that mentioning Angelica would make me depressed.
It's alright, I know that they were just being considerate...
"C'mon lets eat before the soup gets cold!" [Blake]
To lighten up the mood in the room I changed the subject.
