Osamu PoV
Since Sofia was sleepy, storytime came to an end. I wanted to know how the fights went. Knew Amelia's side won as Nora became queen, but the how was just as interesting.
Azami yawned into his tiger plushie. "That was such a good story."
It was scary, though. Amelia wasn't much older than us when this castle got overrun by traitors. What if something like it happened again? What if I lost my mommy and daddy, and brother?
"Azami," I said quietly, glancing up at him as we walked down the hall, "do you think we're really safe here?"
He looked thoughtful for a moment, then shook his head. "Of course we are! We have Mommy and Daddy. They won't let anything bad happen to us."
I frowned, looking down at the purple carpet. That's probably what Amelia thought too. Yet, she lost everyone but her baby cousin.
I wimpered at the thought.
"Hey. Osamu, Azami! I warmed up too glasses for my cubs," Mommy said as she beamed at us, her smile brightening the dim hallway.
