Eva threw open the front door and ran right into Kyogi. Kyogi looked down
startled at his little sister. Eva was small for her age and was only about
four feet tall. Kyogi on the other hand was about four feet eight inches.
Eva barely came up to his shoulder.
"Eva mama was really worried you better get in and tell her that you are okay", Kyogi told her.
Eva nodded her head. Her silky black curls bounced around her head as she ran into the kitchen to find her mother. Eva threw down her backpack next to Kyogi's and walked into the kitchen.
"Eva! Oh my gosh sweetie are you all right?" Rain exclaimed as she knelt down and wrapped her arms around her daughter.
Eva wiggled and squirmed in her mother's arms. "To tight mama", Eva gasped.
"Oh I'm sorry sweetie you just had me so scared", Rain said. Eva hugged her mother then went to go retrieve her backpack and start her homework.
Later that night Eva and Kyogi were in the living room watching TV. Rain and Domon were out in the hangar in the back yard working on Burning Gundam. Eva was coloring in her coloring book.
"Hey Kyogi I heard a really interesting story today", Eva told him as she picked up her red crayon.
"What was it about?" Kyogi asked her as he turned away from the TV.
"Well it was a true story about this guy named God", Eva said. "He created everything Kei! He created Earth and space and all the planets. He just spoke them all into existence. He even created animals and people. It was so amazing. It took place a long time ago even before the Gundam Fight."
"Before the Gundam Fight?" Kyogi asked amazed.
"A long time before the Gundam Fight", Eva told him. Now she was standing up her eyes wide and filled with a fire that Kyogi had never seen before. "God's original purpose was for him to be able to interact with us. He used to come down and talk to us Kei. Then people started doing bad things and cause God's perfect he couldn't be with us anymore. Well this fact made God sad so he sent his son Jesus to come and die for us on the cross. But that wasn't the end! Jesus didn't just die! He rose again Kei after three days. He came back to life and is still alive now. He came and died to save us from our sin. Now all we have to do is ask Jesus into our hearts and we'll go to heaven and be with him forever and ever. He's my new best friend and he can be yours too."
"Wait! he's your new BEST friend?" Kyogi asked sounding hurt.
"Oh Kei it isn't like that!" Eva said throwing her arms around her older brother's neck. "Jesus is my best heavenly friend. You're my best friend here on Earth. He can be your best heavenly friend too. God loves everyone in the whole world."
"How do we talk to him?" Kyogi asked her.
"We pray", Eva said solemnly.
Kyogi nodded his head. "How do you pray?"
"Do you want to ask Jesus into your heart?" Eva asked. Kyogi once again nodded his head. "Well bow your head and repeat after me", Eva said. In her own sweet simple words Eva poured out her heart to God giving sweet petitions for her brother Kyogi then led him in a simpler version of the prayer the woman had lead her in only a few hours before. As they finished Eva threw her small thin arms around her brother's neck. "Oh Kei now you're my brother in Christ too", she said sighing happily. "Now let's go tell mama and daddy about our new friend."
Eva and Kyogi slipped on their shoes and went out to the hanger for Burning Gundam.
