Chapter 65: No news



And then, finally, the cries of a newborn filled the air. A wave of relief washed over Rain, lifting the heavy burden from his shoulders. The realization that his mother had safely delivered their newest family member enveloped him with an indescribable sense of joy. It was as if a weight had been lifted, and a renewed hope blossomed within his heart.

Entering the room, Rain's eyes showed his mother, exhausted but wearing a smile of pure bliss. Leiah's strength and resilience shone through, a testament to her unwavering love and dedication to their family. At that moment, Rain felt a surge of gratitude for his mother's resilience and the safe arrival of their newest bundle of joy.

A sense of serenity settled over Rain as he gazed upon the tiny, fragile form of his newborn sibling. The weight of the past months seemed to dissipate, replaced by a renewed sense of purpose and an overwhelming love. It was a moment of pure connection, a reminder of the unbreakable bond that held their family together.

"Her name is Gilaina," Leiah said.

It was another girl… that wasn't bad, but Rain was hoping that he would have a little brother that would look up to him as well. Still, what were the chances of him getting three little sisters? They were twelve percent."

"Gila got it," Rain said.

Rain's grandparents were both happy and concerned about Leiah's naming choices for her children. They loved seeing her joy and creativity, but at times, they found the names a bit puzzling. Rain was used to that, so he quickly solved the issue by giving her a pet name that suited her.

Leiah had a knack for selecting unusual and imaginative names that held personal significance to her. While her desire to bestow unique names on her children was admirable, it sometimes left Rain's grandparents feeling a bit perplexed.

They often found themselves engaged in light-hearted debates about the names, with Leiah standing firmly by her choices and Rain's grandparents suggesting more traditional options. They wanted names that honored their family heritage while also embracing Leiah's individuality.

Despite their differences in opinion, Rain's grandparents cherished the special bond they shared with their daughter and grandchildren. They understood that Leiah's naming sense was a reflection of her deep love for her children and her desire to celebrate their individuality.

Gila, the newest addition to the family, was known for her constant crying. Whether in her mother's arms or elsewhere, she would let out loud cries that filled the air. However, Rain noticed something interesting - Gila cried less when he was around.

When Rain held Gila, she seemed to find comfort in his presence. His gentle touch and calm demeanor had a soothing effect on her. It was as if she could sense the love and care he had for her, even at such a young age.

Observing Gila, Rain couldn't help but notice the mix of her parents' features. She had her mother's fiery red hair, but her eyes were a soft shade of brown. It was a unique combination that made her stand out from her siblings.

While Gila's crying initially caused concern, Rain couldn't help but feel an affectionate anticipation for the future. He knew that as she grew, her lively personality and mischievous nature would bring both joy and challenges to their household.

In any case, the new addition to the family brought joy to the family; Dana and Kei also didn't feel any jealousy toward their little sister, which was getting more attention; in fact, they were behaving more.

In the afternoons, Rain dedicated his time to teaching his younger siblings, Dana and Kei, how to read and write. It became a daily ritual that brought them together and fostered a sense of learning and growth within the family.

Using simple materials like pencils and paper, Rain patiently guided Dana and Kei through the basics of literacy. He taught them the alphabet, letter sounds, and how to form words and sentences. With each passing day, their knowledge expanded, and their confidence grew.

Rain's approach was gentle and encouraging, making learning a fun and engaging experience for his siblings. He used colorful illustrations and interactive activities to keep their interest alive. He celebrated their progress, praising their efforts and providing gentle corrections when needed.

Things started to get back to normal. Still, Rain didn't feel like his mother and the others had assumed that Roan had died. Things were too quiet… There was no news about him. No one was executed, their deaths weren't confined, and no one asked for their ransom. It felt like Roan and his brothers had just vanished.

It is a possibility that Rain couldn't help but consider deep within his thoughts. The prolonged absence of his father, Roan, and his uncles left a lingering sense of unease in his heart. As days turned into weeks, and weeks into months, the lack of any news or information about their whereabouts weighed heavily on his mind.

Rain couldn't help but speculate on the reasons behind the silence. In order to avoid future complications, it seemed plausible that the kingdom might have taken covert actions against Roan and his brothers. Their disappearance could be a calculated move to erase any potential threats or conflicts that may arise in the future.
