Sweet Mischief’s Rollercoaster Romance

"Go home and let your moms know that once your big brother's less busy, he'll give them a call," Leo said, glancing at both Henrys, who nodded dutifully.

After a few words between the brothers, Leo hefted the two kids into the car. "Sweeties, do you remember how to get home?"

"I do!" Henry replied with a confident grin.

Leo watched as the kids' little car rolled through the front gates, then leaned over

to the security guard. "Give the house a call, let them know the boys are back. And keep an eye out-don't let them sneak off to the lake again."

"Yes, sir, Leo."

With that, Leo drove off with Anya.

Henry, already a pro behind the wheel of his little car, easily found his way home, the toy engine beeping all the way to the living room. Wayne sat beside him, back straight, listening to his big brother like a soldier on parade.

Reaching the parking area, Henry parked his tiny car right next to Dad's sedan- one big, one small, the perfect family snapshot.

He climbed out, making a show of it, even opening the door for Wayne. With his little brother's hand in his, they dashed toward the living room. "Mom, message delivery!"

The little messenger ran to his mom, while Wayne made a beeline for Dad and dove straight into his arms.

Officer Chad scooped him up and tucked a slice of watermelon into Wayne's hand. "So, what did your brother say before you left?"

Wayne answered in a tiny, careful voice, "Big brother is busy~" He spoke slowly, but every word was clear.
