"You don't know? Mashauva was already crying when I arrived at the living room. If you don't know what happened, who does?"

Minerva bent down in front of Beanie and questioned, "What happened? I know that you've always been a sensible boy, but Mashauva is a little girl. Did you yell at her?"

Beanie turned more agitated after hearing that. He pursed his lips and said, "No, mommy. I saw her eating too much, so I just told her not to do it."

At that time, Beanie felt that there was nothing wrong with his tone, but he had made her cry.

"Is that it?" Minerva recalled for having told Mashauva off a couple of times for snacking and eating too much of sweet foods, but she seemed fine with it.

Why did she cry after Beanie lectured her just once?

"Well, was your tone too harsh then?" Minerva could only took a random guess, thinking from different perspectives.

"I don't think so." "Did you look mad?"

"Mommy..." "I'm not blaming you for this. I just want to know what happened then. That's all. After all, Mashauva did cry because of you. She's just a kid, and she loves spending time with you as well. Well, since you won't tell me, I won't keep pressing on. Mashauva might forget all about it by tomorrow."

With that, Minerva stroked Beanie's head, "Well, don't overthink. Go to bed."

After Minerva had left, Beanie sat by the bed alone, thinking about what had happened that night. What had he done wrong?

He eventually stopped thinking about it and lay down, and fell asleep.

His dreams the entire night were haunted by Mashauva's cries, and he slept poorly. His face was even slightly haggard when he woke up the next day.
