Keane leaned against her, his eyelashes fluttering.
A breeze carrying mixed scents blew by, and Maeve Lane pinched Keane's chubby arm.
"... Stay with sister for now, okay?"
Keane was stunned for a moment, then smiled like a little angel, "Mm-hmm (^～^)"
...
They arrived in Ardoria.
Keane held onto Maeve Lane's sleeve, walking obediently, while Julian Fairchild was a step ahead.
His tall figure cast a shadow in the hallway.
"Sister, when can I become a star?" the child's innocent voice broke the silence.
"You really want to be a star?" Maeve Lane looked at him and said, "At your age, you should be studying hard."
Saying that, she thought of Keane's "dad."
How could he be so irresponsible?
Keane furrowed his little brow, like a little adult, "Being a star lets more people see me."
If mom saw him, she would definitely recognize him, right?
Even though Keane knew his biological parents either already left or gave him away.
