Scarlett Glenn was very anxious, and tiptoed to tug on Nell Harris's hand to look. But both were empty-handed with nothing to show, so she reached into their pockets, as if she expected she might find her 'Younger Brother' tucked inside. Yet nothing came out, and her face was full of anxiety.
She rummaged through every inch of their bodies, but still couldn't find Younger Brother. Scarlett was so worried she was about to cry. Where is the promised younger sibling? Why isn't it here? Grandmother must be lying; there simply isn't one.
Scarlett's actions made Nell Harris and Dylan Young laugh in spite of themselves. Did this little girl really think they could go out and come back with a sibling tucked in their pockets?
Dylan Young squatted down, ruffling Scarlett's hair: "Scarlett, how do you know Mum and Dad were bringing a sibling back?"
Scarlett anxiously replied: "Grandmother told me! She said I'm going to have a Little Brother. Was Grandmother lying?"
