Angelo had looked at his mummy while they were at home. Her tummy had got big, and Angelo had wondered why that was happening at first. But when Emi had once caught his gaze, she had told him that was their little sister growing in there.
Angelo made a thoughtful face. He didn't know what a little sister really was, but since his mummy and daddy told him he would be a big brother, his new sister must be smaller than him. He didn't like how his little sister made his mummy sleepy a lot, but mummy had told him she was okay, and she even tried to play with him when she was at home. He liked that. And when his mummy was looking at little baby stuff, she was smiling a lot. Maybe this little sister wouldn't be a bad thing after all. As he and his sister were sitting on the couch, he went to get his book. He looked at Emi and asked: "P'ease, sis, ca' you rea' to me?" His question was answered by a giggle, and he handed Emi the book before going to sit next to her. As she read, he heard again that the little sister would need help, and that he had to look after her and protect her. So Angelo giggled and nodded as Emi said that. As his mummy came home, he smiled at Emi and ran towards mummy. He hugged her leg before looking at her belly and waving at it, saying: "Hi litt'e siste', I'm you' big brothe', I'll pwotect you!" He nodded, running off after to play with his big sister.
