I had Lifu sitting on my lap facing forward, we were watching some music videos online that kept him calm and quiet... Tinglin fetched us a plate of watermelon, red and juicy melons. I held a fork and cut through small pieces, feeding Lifu one by one, he grasped them down like watermelon is over-produced for the season.
There is only so many melons the little stomach can stores, soon he was shaking his head and kept his lips tightly sealed. Using his little hand, Lifu grabbed the fork with a little piece of watermelon still on it. Thought that he wanted to play with it and I was unhappy with the sharp edges, I fought back resisting him from taking it. He complained with a loud and unsatisfactory voice. I had to give in, little bugger always win. Cautiously I had both my hands ready and blocking him from poking himself.
Lifu held the fork steadily on his right hand, raised it up, head turned around and with anticipation in his eyes, he was looking at me. He fetched me the piece of melon to my mouth. I took the bite and laughed, thanking Lifu for such consideration. He laughed, eyes squinted and revealed his newly grown teeth. That was the angel look I ever got to know.
It was then I knew where angels really come from.
