S31 204. Barbara’s Nervousness

“Hello, Orion,” Emily whispered as the tiny baby in the box opened his eyes. Her hand reached out, trying to reach his chubby cheek.

From the other side of the box, Louis also looked inside. “Hello, Oscar.

“Louis?” Emily scolded with round eyes. “Why do you call him Oscar? This is our first meeting with him. Don’t make a bad impression.”

Louis pursed his lips. “Okay, sorry. I’m used to it. Let me repeat.”

After clearing his throat, he looked down again. “Hello, Orion. It’s me, Louis. I’m your cousin.”

Emily smiled slightly and nodded. “That’s just right.”

After giving Louis thumbs up, she waved her hand downwards. “And I’m Emily. Nice to meet you, Orion.”

“Is it true?” Emily bowed her head. Squinting, she counted Orion by the inch. “I think it’s the same.”

“No! Orion is a little longer. Maybe that’s also what makes it difficult for Aunt Ava to push him out.”

Philip and Barbara chuckled at them
