Brotherly Love Part 4: Hope you enjoi.

I don't own Hetalia :)

Lovino nodded again, suddenly feeling important.

The man took a deep breath.

"I want to… adopt..."

"Adopt what, a dog?"

"No... A... A little boy."

The room fell into a stony silence.

Lovino stared at his grandpa, mouth open, not because of shock, but the fact he couldn't find anything to reply with.

He stuttered a couple of times, before finally coming out with a quiet,

"A… L-little boy?"

He didn't really know what to think; why did he want to adopt? Was he not good enough?

"Yes. Please, what do you think? I've been thinking about this for a while... I was thinking about just giving up on the whole idea, but then I saw a small boy, a couple years younger than you. Six, if I remember rightly...

I don't know what happened to his parents…"

Lovino's face flickered from emotion to emotion, but he failed once again to reply.

"I thought you might like the whole idea, having a play mate, for while I'm gone.But the main reason… I feel so compelled to adopt him, is..."

He exhaled slowly, and looked down at Lovino.
"He looks almost exactly like… like your Mother."

Dramatic end is dramatic. TBC?
