Wheatley staggered down the hallway of his home. Carrying Chell's extra weight was hard, even if she was only a baby. His own small frame made it difficult to carry anything remotely heavy. Still he carried on, quite eager to play with his new little sister.
"Wow, mum's right! You are heavy!" Wheatley grunted as he set the infant down on the floor of her nursery. He playfully poked at her belly, squeezing a giggle out of her. Wheatley giggled in response, delighted by this reaction.
Wheatley looked around, wondering what they should do. As he observed his options, he ultimately decided on playing with the toys their other had bought for her.
"Hey! Hey, Chell, look at this!" The brunette said waving a rattle in front of her face. Chell's eyes followed it back and forth as it whipped by her. After a moment, Wheatley put the object in his baby sister's hands.
"See? Now you try." he commanded. Despite this, she only stared at it for a second or two before letting it fall to the floor. The boy immediately picked it up and returned it to her. "Oops! You dropped it.".
However, instead of accepting it, the baby crawled away from him. Wheatley crossed his arms and puffed up his cheeks in disapproval. He was just trying to play with her and Chell was being incredibly rude. He had always been taught to acknowledge somebody's presence. Why didn't she understand this basic etiquette? Surely there was something wrong with her. Before he could voice his complaint, he found himself intrigued by what Chell was doing. In her hand she held a red block in the shape of a triangle.
"Oh! I know how to do those." Wheatley announced. Wheatley followed her, taking away the triangular block.
"See? It's a puzzle." he explained. "It's only for big kids though. You probably can't do it." he said. Upon ending this statement, Wheatley took the block and shoved it into the circular hole in the wooden board. Perplexed by the fact that it didn't go through, he began pushing, pulling and everything he could to force the block in. No matter what he tried, it wouldn't go in.
"This dumb thing is broken!" Wheatley declared. As his frustration built, Chell took the block from his hand and put it into the triangular hole. A look of astonishment manifested on his face.
"What? How...how did you DO that!?" he shrieked, dumbfounded. Chell giggled and popped the circular block into the circular hole. At this point her brother's amazement had turned to envy. Feeling he'd been made a fool of, he grumbled and turned away from her.
"Hmph.. Show off..." He mumbled. Chell babbled in her baby tongue and Wheatley looked back at her. She motioned towards the wooden cube behind him. Slowly and cautiously he retrieved the item and placed it into the correct hole.
"Hey! I did it!" Wheatley cried, delighted with his handiwork. Chell laughed along with him, more nonsense emerging from her mouth. Wheatley reached behind her and pulled out some play dough.
"Look Chell, we should play with this now! We can make a cake if you want."
