Chapter 7 Two Sweeties

The little girl tilted her head to one side with an aggrieved expression on her rosy face. Then she turned around and ran toward the woman with the puppy in her arms.

“Mom, Witty–Whitey is just chicken–hearted. I didn’t bully him. I’m a kind girl!”

The woman gently pinched the little girl’s nose and said, “Sure. Betty is a kind and pretty little girl. Witty–Whitey is such a coward!”

Amused, Isabella took the chubby puppy from her daughter’s arms. The puppy was playing dead and cracked open one eye, breathing a huge sigh of relief when realizing that he was finally in the clear.

“But my little brother said I bullied Witty Whitey.”

The girl complained, blinking her big, dark blue eyes.

The boy heard her words and walked over. Then, looking at the girl with a straight face, he said, “Betty, I’m not your little brother. I’m older than you.”

The girl pouted her pink lips and lifted her chin. Then, with a snort, she retorted, “Maybe Mom was wrong about which of us she gave birth to first, and I came out before you.”

The little boy’s brows wrinkled. The resigned look in his eyes was at odds with his young age.

“Betty, be a good girl and admit I’m the older one of us.” The boy doted on his sister on everything but this

matter.

“No way,” the little girl replied firmly.

Isabella looked at them resignedly. Both of her children were just as obstinate as that man.

She had told them that Betty was the younger sister, but the little girl never accepted it and insisted that she was the older one of the twins.

Ever since she learned to speak, she had called the boy her little brother.
