Sonny replied quickly, "Of course, I really like him. I like Uncle Duncan a lot. Having another father is great! Most people only have one dad, but I get two. How cool is that?" At first, when Duncan gently asked Sonny if he wanted a new dad, Sonny said he already had one and didn't need another. But as Sonny got a bit older, he started to bond with Duncan. Now, he's okay with the idea of having another dad.
In fact, Sonny feels closer to Duncan, who's about to bechis stepfather, than to his biological father. This change happened mainly because the Brown family often caused trouble, almost ruining Sonny's feelings for them.
Sonny is still young, so if the Brown family treated him well and didn't try to use him for their own gain, they could still build a strong relationship. But once Sonny grows up, it will be harder to form that bond. By then, he'll have his own opinions, and it won't be easy to win him over. The Brown family is short-sighted in this way. They think Sonny is still easy to sway, but for example, when Sonny went on a long trip, he didn't even think to call Hank, his biological father.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtHank, who drives for a ride-hailing service, works almost all day and has little tto call Sonny, causing their bond to weaken.
Mr. and Mrs. Brown rarely called Sonny either, mainly because Sonny didn't have much to say to his grandparents.
Grandpa Brown was okay, usually reminding Sonny to eat well and drink enough water. But Grandma Brown often brought up Lucas, asking Sonny to share his toys with him, saying Sonny had so many that giving a few to Lucas wouldn't hurt.
Sonny might not know all the words to express his thoughts, but he understands enough to realize that Grandma Brown always favors Lucas.
Sonny figures he should be the one to decide if he wants to share his toys, not his grandma. And when it comes to money, it's his money, given by Liberty, Aunt Seren, and Uncle Zack. Liberty told him it's being saved for his college education and to start a business after he graduates.
Liberty never said Sonny's money would be spent on others, so why should Lucas use it? Because of this, Sonny doesn't like talking to Grandma Brown. Whenever she calls, Sonny usually hands the phone over to Serenity after a few words.
Grandma Brown is intimidated by Serenity and often hangs up once the phone is passed to her.
Serenity gently patted Sonny's head.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmZachary also felt relieved. Even though he could see that Sonny had accepted Duncan, he still had sworries. Thankfully, Sonny remained open and genuinely accepted Duncan as his stepfather.
Duncan treats him better than his own father.
"That's right, Sonny. It's wonderful to have two dads who love you. Most of us only have one."
Zachary praised Sonny a few more times before saying, "Sonny, it's getting late. You should head to bed now. It's cold, so make sure to stay warm under the covers."
Sonny replied, "I still want to video chat with my mom. I wonder if she's mom.w free The Content is on || novelenglish.net!
