in the afternoon.
The bright sunlight poured into a light warm yellow through the windows of the office, and Severus sat on the carpet not far from Mycroft playing with the toys he had brought.
It was a small hat less than the size of a palm. When the sharp corners of the hat were squeezed lightly, the hat would make a sharp sound similar to a cat meowing. When it was released, the sound of gasping replaced the scream, and then the hat body would With facial features, the green eyes seem to have light.
This is Tom Lawrence's first Christmas present for his brother, and the brunette will definitely take it with him when he plays alone.
"Mike!" Severus poked the screaming hat with green eyes in front of him, and left a second before the latter opened his mouth to bite him, turned his head, and called out to the adults on the other side of the office in a small voice .
A good education lets the little guy know that he should not disturb the other party, so he can only do it when the other party is taking a break in the middle of their official duties.
Hearing the voice below, Mycroft first rubbed his sore forehead after working for a long time, then put aside the processed documents in his hands, and cast his eyes on the small ball on the carpet not far away, "What's the matter?" Sev." If it were another man, he would definitely not be so good-tempered, but there are exceptions to everything.
Severus is the exception to this, plus of course Sherlock and Dana Lawrence.
"Thirsty!" Severus blushed slightly when he said his question in a sticky voice, he was a little embarrassed, obviously he was a little shy to bother the other party for himself.
He only used a little milk for the whole breakfast, and milk didn't quite quench his thirst. It had been four hours since he came to this office, and his dry lips had already told the state of his body, and he wanted water.
Mike also remembered what he had missed.
Usually when Severus came here, Dana would bring him a small water bottle to prevent him from being thirsty or something. I don't know why the latter seemed to omit this matter today.
After thinking everything through, the man first showed a rare comforting smile to the black-haired child, then reached out and rang the bell next to him, reminding the secretary below to come up.
"Clauria, bring some juice up." Mycroft said calmly, as if he was not talking about a child's drink, but some important national event.
"Yes, BOSS!"
When the secretary heard the boy coming from the phone, she stood up reflexively and said, until the other end hung up the phone, she blinked her eyes a little suspiciously.
Guessing that it might be Severus who needs a drink, the secretary deliberately replaced the fruit juice with orange juice that babies can drink.
"Knock knock!"
The secretary stepped on high heels and stood in front of the door. After hearing the sound of allowing entry from inside, she slowly opened the door.
The first thing that catches the eye is the black-haired child playing with toys on the carpet, the warm sunshine is dancing on the corner of his clothes, the white and tender face is full of happy smiles, and the little hand pokes the hat in his hand from time to time, everything is very warm .
Seeing all this, Miss Secretary's heart softened.
Mycroft, who was still at the desk, saw the abnormality of his subordinate and coughed without showing any traces, and the latter woke up like a dream.
"Boss, everything is here."
Miss Secretary held a tray on her mobile phone, and there were some snacks in the tray, including small biscuits, cakes covered with cream, blueberry-flavored jam, and of course the most important orange juice.
Severus was attracted by the tray, and unconsciously let go of the toy in his hand, and he didn't even blink until the secretary placed the tray on the table in front of Mycroft.
Claudia showed a knowing smile. Children always like some sweet food. She left the office wisely, leaving plenty of space for the remaining two people.
As soon as the secretary left, Severus let go of the screaming hat in his hand, and ran to the desk, looking eagerly at the various foods on the tray.
Looking at the orange juice with big black eyes without blinking, Severus swallowed, and then turned his gaze to the man behind the table.
Mycroft: "...".
"Eat it if you want to eat it!" The man's voice softened without showing any traces. Looking at the smile on the black-haired child's face when he heard him speak, he shook his head helplessly, and then resumed his expressionless expression again. state.
Severus watched Mycroft for a while, then tiptoed to pick up the orange juice, and just when the man thought he was going to drink it, he was surprised by the glass handed in front of him.
This is for him to drink?
Before he could come up with an answer, Severus was the first to say what he meant.
"Mike, drink!" Severus looked at the man's unmoved expression, and handed the cup in his hand to the man, signaling him to drink.
Well, as much as he wanted it, Mike looked like he needed it too.
Maybe it was because the black-haired child's eager eyes were too obvious, and he didn't know that the man was not really interested in orange juice, so he chose to refuse.
With a gentle smile on his handsome face, with inadvertent softness on the ground, he said, "Drink it yourself, I'm not thirsty."
Severus looked at him for a while, and his eyes met, black and blue. After making sure that the other party was not perfunctory, he slowly took back the glass of orange juice in his hand.
"Gulu Gulu!" The juice in the cup was swallowed by the little guy without any haste, and more than half of the cup was missing.
After drinking, he sighed contentedly and put the cup back on the tray.
However, soon he was attracted by something else.
cake.
Severus rarely had the chance to eat sweets, even though his father was a famous chef, even though his family had no shortage of gold coins for sweets.
According to the in-depth talks between Dana and Hannibal, it was found that sweets were not very good for the growing Severus, so the latter's daily sugar intake was still very small.
The fluffy bread is covered with thick cream, dotted with some raspberries, and then sprinkled with rich maple syrup, which is too tempting for the cubs.
Of course, the temptation is equally great for adults with a sweet tooth.
In line with the principle of respecting the old and loving the young, although Severus wanted to eat it very much, he still immediately thought of his favorite Uncle Mike.
The most important thing is that the other party also likes sweets.
"Mike!" The little guy didn't even yell at eating this time, he cut a large piece of cake with a fork and handed it to the latter.
Mycroft looked at the black-haired child in front of him and raised his eyebrows, his expression was calm, but everyone who knew him knew that he was in a good mood.
"This is for me?"
Severus nodded, seeing Mycroft take the tray of cake before running to his own.
The black-haired child's cake was very small. He divided the big cake in the tray into two pieces, one was two-thirds the size of the original one, and the other was only half the size of the first one, which was about the size of several mouthfuls for an adult.
Apparently Severus kept his promise to his father even though he was far away from home.
But there is another reason.
Uncle Mike also likes sweets (≧▽≦)!
