Chapter 904 Giving Sugar To Don In Secret
Nine was the first one to find the tree hole. It was originally a small hole in the tree, and Don climbed in
first. The small place quickly aroused his imagination.
Don said he wanted to be a squirrel in the tree hole.
Of course it was unrealistic to live in a tree hole, but Van would never give a blow to his brother who
had been promising to protect him. He quietly decorated the tree hole for Don.
First, he wiped the tree hole with a towel, and then put his favorite sweater as a cover, and put in some
little things that Don liked.
Van felt like he was setting up a simple and shabby dog house. Later, when he saw Don and Nine
sitting in the tree hole, he felt it was really a dog house.
Later, Don told him that they could only come in the daytime, for it would be dark in the evening. Then
Van went to the warehouse and took out small lights. He stuck the lights on the wall in the tree hole, so
it could be lit up at night.
Don was so happy.
Sometimes he sneaked over at night, but found that it was very cold when the wind blew in. Then he
came up with an idea. He found some plastic vines and hung them up as a tassel-shaped curtain.
On the day he made it, he proudly showed it off to Van and got praised.
Don looked at Van with a smile. "The tree hole is our secret."
Then he raised his index finger to his lips and shushed to Van and Nine. This had become their secret
base.
Again, Van opened the curtain of the plastic vines. Smelling the scent of Don, Nine raised his head and
gently barked.
Don also looked up, with red eyes and tear stains on his face. He sobbed and sniffed, and his
shoulders were shaking.
He was almost short of breath if he didn't stop crying.
Van was so sad that his eyes turned red again. "I'm sorry, Don."
"Humph!" Don turned around and didn't reply to him.
Van signaled to Nine to wait outside, and Nine obediently went out and guarded outside the tree hole.
Van climbed in, sat next to Don and held his little hand.
This time, Don didn't get rid of him, but he didn't look at him and kept sobbing.
Van took out a lollipop from his pocket and handed it to Don. "Don, here you are. It's your favorite
lollipop. I secretly brought it to you. Dad and Mom don't know."
Children liked sugar, especially Don. Once he was sick, he would hide to avoid taking medicine. Only
sugar could take him out and let him take medicine.
Nina didn't allow him to eat too much sugar. For one thing, it would lead to dental cavities. For another,
it took a lot of time to make the lollipop that Noah gave her, but the former was the main reason. Content provided by NôvelDrama.Org.
In order to make Don realize the seriousness of dental cavities, Nina specially found a video and
showed it to him. Knowing that too much sugar would make little bugs appear in his teeth, Don quitted
crying for sugar for a period of time.
It was only a short period of time, but in the end, Don was still unable to resist the temptation of sugar.
According to the rules, Don and Van could only eat three lollipops a week at most. Van was not as fond
of candies as Don, and sometimes he would forget that he had candies in his pocket. When he
remembered and ate them, Don would look at him eagerly.
Sometimes Van gave the lollipop to Don, and Don would pretend to refuse it at first and then put it into
his mouth. Once Nina found it and blamed them.
Nina specially said to Van that he couldn't just give everything to Don. It was not good to give him
whatever he wanted. Since Don didn't know how to restrain himself, as his brother, Van should help
him do it.
Later, Van didn't give his own lollipops to Don anymore, and would warn him that too much sugar would
hurt his teeth. Don pouted to protest, but this time Van didn't give in.
He wanted to be good to Don, but too much sugar would harm him.
But not long after, Van still gave in.
Don was naughty and mischievous, and he just got into trouble at times. One day, he saw a senior
student took the mopped floor as an ice and skied on it. Don thought it was fun and also did the same.
He rushed on the mopped floor like that senior student, but he was unable to stop and fell to the ground
with a bang.
His buttocks were not broken or bleeding, but they were so swollen that he could only sleep on his
stomach at night.
Don and Van slept in the same room and shared a bunk bed. At that night, Van heard muffled cries
from below.
He lifted the quilt and saw Don biting his mouth and crying. "Van, my buttocks hurt."
"Does it still hurt after applying medicine?"
"Ouch! It hurts!"
Don pouted and cried. Van rubbed Don's head as what he often did to Nine.
"Van, I want sugar. Do you still have sugar?" Don reached out and wiped his tears.
Van didn't have the heart to refuse. "Yes, I'll go upstairs and get it for you."
"Don't let Dad and Mom know. After you eat it up, I'll take you to brush your teeth. You should brush for
a longer time." Now, Van repeated this sentence to Don again.
Tempted by the sugar, Don turned around.
Van peeled the sugar and put it into Don's mouth. The sweet taste spread in Don's mouth, mixed with a
trace of sourness. It was an orange-flavored lollipop.
After sucking the lollipop, Don took it out of his mouth and asked sadly, "Why do you want to have a
new brother or sister? Don't you like me anymore?"
Then he pouted and was about to cry again.
Van felt sad at the sight of Don's tears. Before Don could cry, Van just quickly said, "No, all of us like
you. I like you. Dad and Mom like you. Uncles and Aunties like you. Brothers and Dora also like you."
Van counted with his fingers. "Grandpa and Grandma like you, as well as Aunt Michelle... She is really
our Auntie now."
"Uncle Adrian, Uncle Noah, Kian, Eileen, Cherry, Owen, Mario and the teachers in the school all like
you."
"Look, I can't even count with my both hands." Van shook his hands.
Don held back his tears. "Really?"
"Yes." Van nodded heavily.
Don bit on the lollipop again and seemed to be in a better mood. Van asked tentatively, "Do you like our
new brother or sister?"
Don kept silent for a while before saying, "If I have a new brother or sister, you won't like me."
"No, we won't." Van raised his hands and promised, "I like you the most. And our new brother or sister
will also like you. Amanda is also our younger sister, and she likes you."
"Of course not." Don immediately refuted, "Amanda always wants you to hug her. She always refuses
me. She doesn't like me, and I don't like her either. She's not good. Only Eileen and Cherry are good."
However, Don didn't get angry with Amanda for she only wanted Van to hold her. He behaved to be
very generous. "You like Amanda. I'm not angry with her."
"Well, thank you." Van chuckled. Don was very good. He would protect him and would not feel angry
with Amanda for the sake of him.
After pacifying Don, Van held his hand and went back. On the way back, he told Don that everyone at
home felt anxious after he ran away, and persuaded him to apologize later.
After getting home, Don lowered his head and apologized, "I'm sorry."
Everyone breathed a sigh of relief. It was very good that Don could return and didn't get hurt.
