This taught her to love them and gave her a sense of responsibility whenever there was a chance to care for them. The younger man shifted the baby carrier basket in his hand as he met Conley’s gaze. Clearly the husband needed some assistance.
Sachin reached out to take Radhika’s hand and spoke to her patiently in Hindi. “We’ll see the unicorns soon, Radhi. They’re not going anywhere. Besides, all of these other creatures want to meet the little fairy they’ve heard so much about. Don’t you think they would be sad if you didn’t take time to visit them?” He pinched Radhika’s cheek lightly then peered down at the basket. Good. Levi was still fast asleep, his sister's tantrum leaving him unbothered. She let go of Papa’s hand and grabbed hold of Daddy’s and started tugging him in the same direction as Papa. Daddy was usually the easier of the two to get to do things. But stopped tugging when he started talking. She looked up at him with big brown eyes. She was about to agree when she noticed Daddy was looking at the baby again. Ugh… he was boring and cried a lot. (Although she did enjoy watching him laugh.) ”But Daaddddy…’ she whined hoping to get his attention again. Conley knew that tone. Someone was feeling jealous again. He didn’t blame her. Not always at least. She was too young to fully understand that Levi needed more attention then she did right now. ”Alright mon coeur. That’s enough. Daddy’s right. They’ll still be there if we don’t go see them right away. Let’s go see the fairies. “ They were in the direction Radhika was tugging them and would likely be a good distraction. He glanced up at Sachin with a smile. Stubborn though she was, Conley loved their daughter. Oh no... Papa was using his unhappy voice. Radhika looked up at him, lip trembling a little until - Fairies? If there was something Radhika loved more then unicorns it was fairies. They too were sparkly and shiny and they flied! "Ohhhkay. Come-on Daddy!" She giggled and then let go of Daddy's hand and started marching off. Again, in the wrong direction.
