"What are you doing, brother?" ca a childish voice from outside of his door.
Alex was pulled back to reality after hearing his little brother's voice. Turning around, he walked near the door.
On opening the door, he saw his 5 years old younger brother, Scott standing like a grown-up boy. He signaled Alex to bend down to match his height.
"What happened, Scott? It's almost midnight and you are still not asleep."
"You never ca down for dinner and I was waiting for you." Said Scott like he was complaining.
"Scott, I don't wish to have dinner tonight. You go back to sleep now."
"ALEX BROTHER!!!" shouted Scott and suddenly ca inside Alex's room.
Opening a drawer, he pulled out a photo and ran away downstairs.
"Scott, co back NOW and give the picture back."
" I will give you this back but first, you have to eat dinner otherwise you are not getting this back." Stated Scott.
Alex sighed seeing his younger brother like this. He knew his younger self was always like this, once he decides sothing, he will make sure that it is done.
"Okay. I will have dinner, Happy?" asked Alex.
"First you have dinner, then only you are getting back this photo."
Alex ca downstairs and Scott asked the maid to serve dinner to Alex.
While Alex was eating dinner, Scott was keeping a check on whether he was finishing his dinner or not.
"Scott you are only 5 years old, don't try to act like you are my mother." Alex made Scott rember this.
"So what if I'm only 5 years old, I still have a high IQ. I can manage the whole house, make my own dinner, clean the house. So I can manage you also. And brother this is only for your own good."
"But still you are a child only. Focus on your studies. Oh, I rembered you had a test today. How much did you score?" asked Alex in hope of shifting the topic.
"I told you I have a high IQ. I scored full marks."
"Good. But don't be overconfident about your IQ. You still need to study."
"I know. By the way, brother, who is this girl in the photo?"
Alex's hand stopped while eating when he heard Scott's question.
"No one. You don't know her," replied Alex.
"Brother, Big brother called. But I rejected his call," said Scott in a serious tone.
Alex's eyes darkened after hearing this statent. "You don't have to ever pick up his calls in the future. Understood?'
"Yes, brother!"
After dinner, Alex put Scott in his bed and waited till he fell asleep and then went back to his room after taking the picture."
