"Mom! Dad! Wake up!"

Eve groaned, rolling onto her other side. She felt Ambryan's body heat beside her and scooted closer. Her arm went around his stomach while her head rested on his shoulder. Ambryan stayed still, buried deep in slumber.

Loud banging came from their bedroom door.

Then, two pairs of feet ran up and jumped on the mattress.

"Wow, mom. You're not naked this time," a red-haired five-year old boy remarked.

"Cain," Eve warned, instantly awake. She sat up abruptly and narrowed her gaze at her little troublemaker. He inherited the round shape of her eyes which masked the mischief mixed with their violet color.

"It was just an observation…" Cain muttered, blinking twice.

Eve knew the act well so it didn't fool her.

"Well, I observe that mom looks prettier today," Cain's older sister said. She crawled towards Eve and gave their mother a kiss on the cheek. The tips of her onyx black hair tickled her chin.
