Miriam giggled as she was lifted into her adopted brother’s arms, wrapping her arms around his neck. It was an extremely nice change from what she knew when they were both growing up in the slums.
She settled against Alibaba’s side, cuddling up to him with a small yawn. “I love you, Alibaba. I wanna play more….when I wake up.”
🔥 “ Love you too, you little cuddle monster!~ There’s enough time for playing so rest well! I’ll show you around and even introduce you to my friends. I’m not gonna go anywhere without you. Its my duty as your brother to stay by your side and also protect you for now and forever! “ And as promised he began making her a flower crown from the flowers close by and around them, adding all kinds of bright colors that would come out looking great and hopes she would like it, and hum her a song his mother use to sing to the three of them to sleep.
The lullaby almost instantly lulled the little girl off to sleep, clinging to her brother’s clothes tightly. She slept for quite a while, but once she was awake had energy to spare and wanted to play. “Can we go play now? Can you take me to Kassim too?” She wanted to see her older brother! She missed him!
