"Can I really have my own room? Just A.B. and me?" Mamo questioned excitedly half-skipping down the hall before his parents and General Nicholas, who had been returned to his previous station of "uncle." "Justin – he's a knight fer Uncle Nicky-san – he said I could have my own room. Can I really? Will I really have my own room, Daddy?"
Endymion smiled. His soon was finally home. Things were back the way they were suppose to be. "Of course, Mamo-chan. You can have a whole suite of rooms."
"Sure. Have as many as you like." Nicholas joked. "One for every day of the week."
Mamo giggled childishly. "I only want one, Uncle Nicky-san – one for A.B. and me."
"What do you think of this room, my Mamo-chan?" Serenity questioned in her gentle song-like voice. "It is just down the hall from ours."
"This one, Mommy?" Mamo quipped racing up to the door. Serenity nodded. Mamo grinned. He liked having a Mommy. Mommy made it all better. He liked having a Daddy too, but – but Daddy lied. Daddy promised to protect him. Daddy lied. Lying was bad. Would he lie about loving him to?
**********
As the door was unlocked and the group entered, Mamo gapped at the large room his parents had picked out for him. A silvery – golden carpet covered the floor and the walls were an intricate mixture of reds, greens, and blues. On one side of the room was a beautiful fireplace locked with a key, which hung up on the wall out of Mamo's reach. A small couch and various cushiony chairs were placed cozily around the fireplace along with an old-fashioned rocking chair.
On the far wall was a pair of red-cushioned bay window seats. A pair of clear sliding doors surrounded by large floor-to-ceiling curtains, sat between the two window seats, led out onto a large balcony.
In another area of the room was a large screened television on top of a short TV stand with a couple of small openings in it. One opening held an expensive DVD player, while the other was empty. A handmade round rug lay out before the television seeming to define the TV area of the room.
Also in the room were a long table Mamo could just barely see over and a large number of toy boxes, which were still being brought in. Grinning, Mamo ran over to the nearest of the toy boxes opening it to see what was inside. "Hey, there's nothin' in here!" Mamo replied sounding just a tad disappointed.
"Hmm. Really?" Endymion questioned his son feigning surprise. "I suppose we will have to go to town and pick some out then, ne?"
Mamo's eyes went wide. "You mean I'm gonna pick out my own?" Justin was telling the truth. He would have his own room AND his own toys – new toys. Amazing!! Nephrite Hills didn't have new toys. Orphans didn't get new toys. He felt bad for the kids back at Nephrite Hills, cause they didn't get new toys like him. Nephrite Hills was far away. He didn't live at Nephrite Hills no more. He lives at home with Mommy and Daddy.
"Mamo-chan, are you alright?" Mamo looked up. Mommy was worried about him. Mommy made everything ok, again.
"What is wrong, son?" Daddy wanted to know. Daddy is different from Mommy. Daddy's eyes were like his own eyes – not like Mommy's – like he could almost understand him. Naw, but that was silly. Daddy's life was PERFECT. He couldn't possibly understand livin' in the orphanage, could he?
"Nothin'" Mamo assured them. "I was just thinkin'."
Endymion didn't believe him. It was obvious his son was hiding some of his deeper thoughts, but it WAS only his first day with them. For now, he wouldn't push it. Hopefully, Mamo would open up to them over time. "Well, we have seen your playroom. Do you want to see your bedroom before we head to town?" Mamo nodded emphatically.
**********
Mamo's bedroom was much smaller than his playroom, but still a nice size. The first thing he noticed was a set of bunk beds. "Cool!" Mamo cried climbing up to the top. There was a chest-of-drawers of course – yawn – as well as a large finely carved desk with bookshelves on either side. Finally, the room also held a large walk-in-closet and another pair of as- yet-empty toy boxes. "What's that for?" Mamo questioned curiously. Jumping off the bed he ran over to the desk pointing to a boxy thing setting securely back inside of the desk.
"That is a computer, Mamo-chan." Endymion replied. Mamo gawked. Mrs. Carol had a Windows XP3025 computer, but he was never allowed to play on it. "We can pick out some games for it. You will need to have one of us with you if you want to play on it of course." Mamo's eyes lit up. He had his own computer. The other kids at Nephrite Hills would never believe this. "Come on, Mamo-chan." Endymion called to his son. "How about we go to town and pick you out some toys and such to fill this room with."
"Some decent clothes wouldn't be a bad idea either." Nicholas pointed out.
"Hmm. You are right. We should probably do that first. What do you say Mamo-chan? Do you want to buy some new stuff?"
"Hai!!" Mamo emphatically agreed.
"You three go ahead." Serenity told them. Endymion looked at his wife questioningly. "I had better let Usa-chan know her little brother is home."
"Oh, right. I'd completely forgotten about that. Oh, well. Come on, Mamo- chan."
"Hai!!"
