Chapter 1107

Marcus, Valerie, John, and the twins finally arrived at what had been their home for about fifteen years. Most of it looked spotless, just like they had left it.

John ran straight to his room, with his parents following behind, each carrying one of the twins: Caroline, cuddled lovingly in her father's arms, and Albert in her mother's.

"I missed my room! I missed my little house! Dad!" John said, clearly excited.

"Yeah, buddy?"

"We need to buy a bigger bed, since Ethan's coming over and we have a bunch of sleepovers planned. This bed won't work," John said confidently.

"Oh really? Wow, I wasn't aware of your busy social calendar..." Marcus replied with a touch of sarcasm.

"Yeah, Dad, he needs to catch up with school, and since he's already enrolled in my school and class, it's my responsibility to help him catch up. So we have to work really hard so he doesn't fall behind or feel lonely. He already speaks a bit of Hesperian too," John added, listing his friend's skills.

"Alright then, we'll see if a bigger bed fits or if we should get a bunk bed..." Marcus said, clearly convinced by the reasoning of his six-year-old son.

"Yes, Dad, please! We have to help him, and especially now that he's Serenity's son too, we need to support him even more."

Valerie just watched the whole scene unfold, amused. It was obvious her son had inherited his father's negotiating skills.
