Bryan immediately realized where he went wrong. Frowning, he pouted and asked, “Fine, then. I’ll ask
you again in a nicer way. Bro, where did you get your cartoon kite?”
Benjamin liked the way Bryan called him ‘bro’, so he softened a little. “My mom bought it at a toy shop
in Molomia.”
Hearing this, Bryan was about to tell Corinne when he asked again, “Did you buy the mask you’re
wearing at the same toy shop as well?”
Benjamin nodded. “Yup.”
After thinking about it, Bryan knew he would have to wait for some time to get his toys even if Corinne
agreed to get someone to buy them for him in Molomia, so he came up with an idea.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt“Can you sell your kite and mask to me for now and buy new ones when you go back to Molomia?” he
asked.
Benjamin frowned, thinking that the kid in front of him was trying to take advantage of him. Thus, he
decided to ignore him and walked around him.
However, Bryan grabbed his clothes. “Bro… You don’t have to sell it to me if you don’t want to, but at
least let me wear your mask for a while. Just for a while…I really like it…”
For some reason, Benjamin found it hard to say no to Bryan whenever he called him ‘bro’. After
thinking it over, he nodded and said, “Alright. You can wear it for a while. But you have to give it back to
me after that, okay?”
“Okay. Thanks, bro!” said Bryan seriously.
Benjamin put down his kite and took off his cartoon mask. He passed the mask to Bryan, who
immediately took it and put it over his face happily. He was so excited that he did not even notice what
Benjamin looked like.
“Bryan!”
Bryan quickly froze and looked over to where Corinne was calling him. Through the eye holes of the
mask, he saw her running over hurriedly and instantly felt bad. He was about to get a scolding again!
“How could you run off without telling me again? Ooh, you’re going to get smacked!” Corinne picked
Benjamin up and lightly smacked his bum without giving him a chance to explain himself. “What did I
always tell you? Don’t run off by yourself! Do my words mean nothing to you? What if you run into a

Benjamin was understandably in shock after he was taught a lesson by a stranger. However, he was
not angry. He simply stared at Corinne blankly while thinking, ‘This lady is so beautiful. She smells so
nice… And she’s so warm…’
At the same time, Bryan watched with confusion as Corinne walked away from him with Benjamin still
in her arms. ‘That’s weird… Why is Mommy going away with that kid? Did she mistake him for me? But
how could that be? Do we really look that alike?’
Suddenly, a woman Bryan did not know appeared in front of him and said angrily, “Benjamin! What’s
taking you so long? Come here, now. It’s time we go home!”
Bryan instinctively became alarmed and tried to get away from her so he could chase after Corinne.
However, Sophia quickly grabbed him when she saw he was about to make a run for it.
“Where do you think you’re going? Daddy is still waiting for us over there!”
