New Beginning

"Eat as much as you want, Alex," Amelia said with a smile. "It's only been a month since I last saw you, but you've become so thin! Abbie, I'm disappointed in you. How could you do this to Alex?"

Abbie rolled her eyes at her mother's comment. While it was true that Alex had become a little thin, it was due to their adventures in Edea. The little boy had burned all the fat in his body, which made it more lean and nimble.

Although his face was still as cute as ever, there was a sense of maturity that could be seen in his eyes. 

While Amelia was reprimanding her daughter, James, Abbie and Lily's father, was looking at the chubby crab who was happily eating a steak on top of their table. When Abbie and Alex arrived at their home, the crab was perched on top of the little boy's head.

At first, he thought that it was a hat. However, he was shocked when it moved its pincers to wave at them when Alex introduced "IT" to their family.
