The loud sounds of kids sounded as Nikolas pulled over, parking close to the gate of a large building.
It was Lucia's school. Lucian had made him pick her up for him.
Staring right ahead, he saw her coming out, dressed in her uniform, the backpack that was almost bigger than her, hanging on her back.
The second she sighted him, she paused on her feet, blue eyes growing large. "Uncle Niko!!!"
He waved at her, lips curled into a large smile, however it fell off his face the very next moment. One of the three kids that had walked past her, tripped her, and when she fell hard on her face, they began laughing.
He moved on his feet, but stopped in the next moment, because Lucia stood up glaring at them.
"Why did you do that?" she asked them.
They made funny faces at her. "You didn't give me a pencil when I told you to give me."
"It was mine."
"I don't like you."
"You didn't say please."
