"At last I can rest. After narrating this to you for several hours... I'm tired, uff..."

  "Y-you're not supposed to be tired... Are you pretending or what?" Eliah said to me.

  "Uncle, are you really faking it?"

  "Well... Yes. I actually got bored of sitting here telling you all this, so... You guys want to do something else in the meantime?"

  "Okay, I got hungry," said Eliah.

  "Me too..." said... Alaya, right?

  "Un-cle!" she pouted grumpily at me, again.

  "Sorry..."

  "...I'll get something to eat, I'll be right back." I interrupted Eliah because I made a table and a pizza appear with a jar of lemonade. "T-thank you."

  She sat back down.

  "Hey... What's this?" said Alaya, looking at the pizza.

  "That's it..." I said and turned to Eliah, as if to tell him to explain.

  "...It's okay. Ali, that's called pizza, and it's a food... It has cheese on it, and it tastes good..."

  Alaya started eating as soon as he finished talking. She trusts Eliah as if he were her big brother.

  "Un-cle!"

  "Hey, that's not... That’s not something you say out loud!"

  I'm sorry. I mean:

  "I'm sorry."

  They looked at me funny. They finished eating after a while.

  "Hey..." Eliah asked me. "That first fight was kind of... Disappointing."

  "Yeah, uncle. Even my da..."

  "Don't mention him, not yet."

  "Okay, um..."

  "Well... They just showed powers, and out of nowhere there was a power-up. This... Did that happen like that, really?" Eliah said.

  "Something like that."

  "I see... Well, continue then."

  I kept telling them the story. Yep.
