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. The teacher directed all the children into the nursing home, and the dean of the nursing home delegated some cleaning duties to all of the parents and their children.

“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.

The three of them were sent to a flat and cooling piece of land outdoors, where there was a layer of tree leaves scattered all over the ground. “Let’s sweep all of the leaves toward the middle first,” Leo suggested after looking at

Amelie. She let out a soft grunt, but to her surprise, she didn’t actually feel any pain from the rocks hitting her back. All she felt was a looming figure above her. Amelie turned a little to notice the man’s long legs behind hers. When she spun around, she realized that Leo had protected her with his own
