He was so awkward that both Azayn and his friend Calderon could see the unnatural movements he was doing while eating.
"Pfft!" When he saw his friend dip the garlic bread into his tea to the cream soup prepared on the side, Calderon could not help but laugh.
Elifas's face was so contorted when he tasted the tea-dipped garlic bread in his mouth!
"What!" With a reddened face, he glared at his friend and growled like a cat that had stepped on his tail.
Azayn also saw this and couldn't help but hide her smiling face in Little Han's direction. He knew that her son would not be able to interact that well with children.
He was an only child and during his childhood, all the people in the village had only young teens and elders.
Too bored to only see people older than himself, he cried to his mom and dad to send him to school, which is on a faraway continent, Green Wave.
However, those who were enrolled in the academy were also young students with talented abilities. Therefore, none of them had a normal childhood experience like Little Han.
And so Elifas, did not know how to really interact with children, moreover, Little Han, a human.
"Aunchie?" Little Han was confused as to why his aunty Azayn and the fiery boy were laughing at Elifas.
pαndα`noνɐ1--сoМ He looked at the embarrassed Elifas and blinked his crystal blue eyes two times, then at Azayn. He found that they look similar.
"Never mind them both and just eat little one." Azayn smiled and teased Little Han's cute nose which the toddler pouted in the ticklish sensation cutely.
After some time the meal was finished and Little Han was satisfied. Seeing the two were also done, Azayn stood up and clapped her hands.
In a flash, all the dishes on the table were cleaned up and as if they had their own lives, they flew to where they should be stored and placed.
"Yieeee! *clap clap clap*" Little Han was fascinated with the magic shown by Auntie Azayn and could not help but grin widely and clap excitedly.
From Elifas and Calderon's perspective, Little Han looked so cute and adorable.
Calderon saw that Elifas was looking at the child dazedly, so he elbowed him and whispered "Isn't he cute? Don't you wanna pinch his chubby cheeks?"
Elifas rolled his eyes at him and replied, "Shut up…"
"Alright, Little Han and I will just go over the flower fields. Just as usual, play as much as you want but know your limits." Azayn looked at the two boys while she took Little Han out and reminded the boys to which they answered affirmatively.
Going straight to the flower field with Baobao and Little Han, Azayn did not see that the two boys curiously followed their figures with their eyes on the terrace of the tree house.
"Weeeeeee!!!" When Little Han saw the colorful flowers and trees he ran happily and rolled at it.
Baobao and Azayn watched with gentle eyes as they saw the child acting so carefree despite the looming danger happening in the empire.
The little elf kids also saw his happy figure and could not help but carefully approach him.
At first, they were only curious about the little human child in their midst. They knew from their parents not to interact with a human unless explicitly permitted by the village chief and any of the elders.
And so they looked at Azayn who nodded at them giving permission before they slowly approached Little Han.
"???" Little Han saw many little elf kids staring at him curiously. Feeling that they are not hostile, he looked at them with his signature smile.
Soon the flower field was filled with innocent and childish giggles by Little Han and the rest of the elven kids.
The adult elves around also watched them with gentle smiles on their faces. Some even rested on the shaded corners of the field and watched the young while sipping their morning tea.
Then one kid started making flower crowns. At the sight of this Little Han was greatly amused and also asked the kid how to do it.
The adults chuckled when they saw Little Han sitting on his butt with the kids surrounding him at the back while he stuck his tongue as he intently held with his hands the flowers he was trying to shape like a flower crown.
"No… like this…"
"Good!"
"Use this color…"
"Almost there!"
"Yay!!!! Done!!" The children screamed and clapped happily when Little Han finally finished his clumsy little flower crown.
It did not actually look like a legitimate flower crown however, he worked hard with his clumsy hands to finish it on his own.
He took his very first flower crown and raised it high in the air, like it was his trophy, while he giggled in satisfaction.
One curious elf kid asked, "Wittle Han, to whom will you gib your cwown?"
"I gib to mommy!" Little Han happily answered. "Flower pwetty… mommy pwetty!"
When the kids heard it, they thought it was a good idea too. And so they scattered around and got their own flowers once again to make it for their mommies.
At the end, when these kids came back to their respective houses they suddenly gave the flower crowns to their mommies and complimented them nicely.
None of the people around knew that this seemingly pure gesture would be the very first celebration of the Silver Dew's mother's day!
"Azayn… something happened inside… I think you need to come and check." Azayn was disturbed by Koehthar who looked at him with worry.
Azayn understood what could have happened and nodded, "Go back first, I'll call someone to watch over Little Han."
She subconsciously looked in the direction of the tree house and saw the two teenage boys watching the events happening to the flower field quietly. Originally he intended to have an adult from the village take care of Little Han but seeing his son display curiosity over the child, she thought that it might be a good idea. And so she beckoned the two to come down.
"Mom…" Elifas asked why they were called.
But instead of answering, he took Elifas's hand and beckoned Calderon to follow if he wanted.
Then she crouched beside Little Han who was now making his second flower crown and said, "Little Han, Aunty will just check your mommy inside, will you be ok if Big Brother Elifas and Big Brother Calderon will accompany you to play?"
Little Han looked at the shocked Elifas and Calderon but nonetheless, he nodded and smiled innocently, "Owkay Aunchie!!"
"Wait Mom!!!" Just like that, Azayn looked at the two and gave a brief instruction before going straight to the hall.
Left just like that by Azayn, Elifas stood shocked with Calderon in the middle of the flower field surrounded by children with his mouth agape.
"Well… let's just sit around and enjoy it, buddy. The view was not bad here either…" Calderon shrugged nonchalantly and started to join Little Han sitting on the flower field.
"Hello kid…" Calderon flashed a playful smile toward Little Han as he greeted them. His demeanor right now was completely different from his usual formal and mature facade when he was in the presence of Azayn.
Perhaps, it was because he was only with Elifas and little kids that he did not bear a stern demeanor.
"Hewooo.. Big bro Calleroon…" Little Han still finds some syllables hard to pronounce and so he tries his best to pronounce Calderon's name.
"Woa! You remembered my name, little guy!" Calderon was shocked at Little Han's reply. "This little guy is not bad!" Greatly amused he looked at Elifas who was still contemplating what he has to do.
"Not bad!" Little Han mimicked Calderon's gesture innocently to which Calderon happily laughed.
In an instant, Calderon and Little Han interacted comfortably, with the former one successfully earning the right to lightly pinch the latter's cute cheeks in between his childish giggles.
The more that Elifas watched the Calderon satisfyingly pinching Little Han's face, the more he looked troubled. In the end, he let out a cold snort and finally sat, joining the two.
Calderon raised his brows and looked at his friend with a smirk.
Now the two were busy creating Little Han's second flower crown.
Watching the two, Elifas gulped and opened his mouth slowly, "Hey… little kid…"
Seeing the third guy open his mouth for the first time, the duo paused and looked at him.
"C-can you teach me that too? I-i want to create one for my mommy too…" Elifas took a lot of effort just to say this sentence, so much so that his face was now tinged with red even at the back of his ears.
"Pfft!" Calderon tried hard not to laugh, but he couldn't because seeing his friend ask a little kid to make a flower crown was so funny to him.
But with Elifas's warning glare, he swallowed the remaining urge to laugh and coaxed Little Han, "Little Han, could you help your big brother? He wanted to make one for Aunty Azayn too.."
"Oh… Aunchie? Owkieee!!" Little Han finally understood what Elifas wanted to say and so he happily answered.
