Little Quest

"If I don't make it back, promise me you'll take care of her!"

"Don't say that! Papa!"

"I promise."

"Bro, you can't be serious." The mentioned boy shook his head and looked his father in the eye. The big mustached man gathered his sons in a hug and kissed the top of their brown hair. The smaller boy ran to grab his father's hand and tried desperately to pull his father away.

"Listen here, my boy." The little boy nodded. "Mama would want me to look for her so she could be with her boys again, don't you think?"

"But I can't lose you too, papa."

"Ah, I'm never lost, as long as you remember me and make me proud. Your brother here is a real good example, but I want you to be yourself." The big man stood and patted his youngest son on the head. He then lifted a pack and ran into a portal that the king was holding open for him. The portal shut with a satisfying shloop noise. The little boy burst into tears at first, then remembered he had to make his papa proud. He wiped away the tear with the green cloth of his pajama shirt and stood taller with a pouty determination on his small face.

I will remember you forever, papa and mama both.

With that last thought, Mario took little Luigi and his little sister inside the house which they called home.

Please tell me what you think and whether I should continue or not. Sorry if it's sad.
