A tinge of regret tinged her brother's voice as he tenderly inquired, "I'm sorry. Did your older brother neglect his cute younger sister?"
He carefully set aside the now empty mug, his strong and gentle hands encircling Ellie's frame, effortlessly lifting her into the air. Her startled exclamation of "Oops! brother!" filled the room, but it was accompanied by a radiant smile that danced in her eyes.
Amidst the faint grumblings within her thoughts, Ellie couldn't help but cherish this heartwarming moment.
Her brother's enduring care and playfulness, unwavering even as they both grew older, painted a smile on her face that could rival the brightest of stars. She settled comfortably onto his lap as they shared the embrace of a cozy sofa.
"It's been a while since I've had my little Ellie sit on her brother's lap," he spoke, his voice tender with a hint of nostalgia, as memories of their cherished moments together flooded their senses.
