Family Bonding

(At the Earth kingdom)

"Mother, I'm hungry!" said Gabriel.

Valentina responded, "You have to wait for the food."

"Gabriel, you're already eight years old. Don't act like a child," Antonio added.

"Then I shall ask questions." Gabriel smiled. "Is Aunt Lucy and Uncle Josh a thing?"

As soon as Josh heard that, he looked at the young boy and nodded. Gabriel then asked if Lucy still liked Mateo.

"I don't. I love Josh now." Lucy looked at the general.

"Did you already kiss?" Gabriel gave a cute smile.

"Gabriel, I don't think that's—"

"We did," Josh interrupted. "Tons of times."

"Josh!" the princess shouted as she gently hit his chest.

"Why? Are you being ashamed of our relationship?" Josh asked.

"No, but Gabriel's still a kid!"

Gabriel chuckled. "Aunt Lucy, I'm not a child anymore. Mother told me that you and Uncle Josh made out."

As soon as the princess heard that, her eyes widened as her face started turning red. She then looked at Valentina and asked her why she told him about that since he was too young to know about those kinds of things.

Lucy looked at the little boy sitting in front of her. "Gabriel, do you even know what you're talking about?"

"Of course I know. Uncle Josh explained it to me." Gabriel smiled.

Lucy's eyes then widened and asked the general what he told the little boy.

"Sorry, I couldn't help it. He kept asking and you know I couldn't resist him." Josh laughed.

"Did you tell him the part?" Lucy asked as she brought her face closer to the general, hoping that he'd give her a response.

"What part?"

"That part!"

"Of course not! I told him the details."

"You!" Lucy yelled as her face started turning red.

Valentina took a sip of her tea. "Gabriel, don't tell me you like someone is school...?"

"Of course I don't!" Gabriel lied.

"Who's this lucky girl that caught the attention of my son?"

"You-You don't know her."

"I know all your classmates."

Josh smiled."I can give you advice on how to win her heart."

"Really?" Gabriel's eyes widened,

"Of course! Look, your Aunt Lucy can't even resist me now."

"What's her name?" Lucy asked.

Gabriel answered, "Abigail..."

"Gabriel, you should focus on your studies first," Valentina interrupted.

Abigail, the girl Gabriel had a crush on for almost two years, has always been unaware of his feelings for her. She never thought about developing that kind of relationship with him since they were still young, but Gabriel was different.

"Mother, am I not allowed to like her?" Gabriel asked.

"Of course you can, but at the right."

"Wait! Is this the reason why you've been asking about adultery?" Lucy yelled.

Gabriel sighed, "I guess so."

"Gabriel, you're too young for that. Love doesn't start that way."

"I don't know what to say to her."

"Are you friends with her?" Antonio asked.

"No," Gabriel said. "I'm too shy to talk to her."

"That's normal. Everyone gets shy in front of the person they like," Josh responded.

"I know a way to help," Lucy said.

"I'll do anything!" Gabriel shouted.

"Are you sure about that?"

What-What do you mean...?"

"It's quite tough. I'm not sure if you could do it."

"I'll try it!"

"Where do you get that motivation?" Antonio laughed.

"From Uncle Josh! He was able to make Aunt Lucy love him!" Gabriel smiled.

"Then you have to follow our advice okay?" Lucy asked.

Gabriel smirked. "Of course!"
