Ambrose's face suddenly changed. He put his hands over his stomach and stumbled into Sophia's arms. "Sophia, I seem to... have a stomachache."

Hearing the commotion, Wendy opened the door of her room. Her eyes lit up at the sight of Sophia behind Colin and Ambrose. "Sophia, you're here!"
"Yes, Auntie. I'm sorry to bother you!" Sophia looked at Wendy in embarrassnt.
"Not at all. It's far from my bedti! I was actually talking to Selina just now." As she spoke, a woman exited the room.

"That's okay, Auntie. I'm a boy. When I grow up, I can hold you and Sophia!" Ambrose slipped off Selina's arms and went back to Sophia.
