As I was narrating, Eliah said to me:

  "Hey [Redacted]..." he gave me an ugly look for censoring my own name, even though you already know it. "Agh, okay... Well, why are you telling us this other story? It has nothing to do with the other one. I feel fooled."

  "Yeah, uncle [Redacted], tell us!" said the girl, who, after saying that, pouted grumpily at me.

  "It's just that... Well, I had to give them a nice introduction to these characters, in the same way I did with Mathias," I told them. "They are going to be important, although... I still need to tell you a few things about them."

  Support creative writers by reading their stories on Royal Road, not stolen versions.

  "Oh, I see," said the girl, who already seemed to accept that I forgot her name. "..." she became sad.

  "Well, shall I continue?"

  "...Do whatever you want," Eliah answered me, while she approached the girl to reassure her... I should do something... Ah! I know.

  I brought a chocolate cake and gave it to the girl. She ate it with pleasure. She was happy.

  "I haven't dealt with kids in a long time, so I thought that wasn't going to work..." I said.

  "...What do you mean you haven't dealt with children in a long time?" Eliah asked me.

  "...That's a story for another time," I replied. "Let's continue."

  And I continued Mathias' story... Meh, I continued with this one because it's important, but it's going to end soon.
