The afternoon had been calm until a sharp cry rang through the living room. Daddy looked up in alarm to see Minea glaring at her sister, Luna, her tiny body tense with frustration. Luna, wide-eyed and confused, froze in place, not understanding what had caused Minea’s sudden anger.
Just moments ago, they had been sitting together, playing with a small toy. But something had shifted in an instant — perhaps Luna had taken the toy, or maybe she had simply gotten too close for Minea’s liking. Whatever it was, Minea’s reaction was fierce and unexpected.
Daddy’s heart pounded. He quickly put aside what he was doing and rushed over, kneeling beside them. “Hey, hey… what’s going on here?” he asked softly, trying to calm the storm before it got worse. He gently placed his hand on Minea’s back, feeling her little body trembling with emotion.
Luna’s eyes darted between Daddy and Minea, still silent but clearly hurt by her sister’s outburst. Daddy knew he had to handle this carefully — not scolding too harshly, but also not ignoring the behavior.
“Minea… you love your sister, right?” he asked in a gentle tone. She pouted, turning her head away, but her eyes began to soften. Slowly, Daddy guided her hand toward Luna. “Let’s make it better, okay? Say sorry.”
After a pause, Minea mumbled a tiny “Sorry,” and Luna, always forgiving, gave a small smile. Daddy sighed in relief, pulling them both into his arms for a hug.
Moments like this reminded him how quickly emotions could change, and how fragile sibling harmony could be. But with patience and love, even sudden storms could pass — leaving behind a home full of warmth again.
