My Sugar and Your Spice (Amelia and Leo)

Bria simply shrugged before scratching the back of her head. The young girl looked like she didn’t know how she had bumped into her mother either. “Let me carry her,” Amelie said as she glanced at Leo. Leo handed the child over without saying much. Then, he bent down to pick Amelie’s phone up for her. “Here you go,” he said.

Amelie nodded in appreciation before she took the phone from him and chucked it into her handbag. Soon enough, the bus arrived at their destination.

Even though Bria’s leg was injured, she insisted on being a part of the activity. Amelie hesitated for a while before she went to the toolshed and approached one of the staff members there. “Can you give us some cleaning tools?” she asked.

“Sure.” The staff member handed Amelie some tools, and her eyes lit up with admiration when she saw Bria. “You’re still helping out even though you’re injured, huh? That’s so nice of you,” the staff commented. Bria simply responded with a shy smile.

“How many sets of tools will you need?” the staff member asked.

She had assumed that Leo was just there to spend time with Bria and that he wasn’t going to take part in any cleaning activities. Leo, on the other hand, didn’t seem to realize the look of surprise on Amelie’s face. He extended his long arm over her and took the tools on her behalf.

Amelie saw the rocks flying in Bria’s direction, and she instinctively threw herself over Bria. Amelie could hear the rocks knocking against one another as they flew up into the sky, and she could already imagine how much it was going to hurt when they
