"Liana, please ensure Javier behaves," Lady Francesca said, her voice warm but firm.
"Yes, madam," Liana replied with a polite bow. Her maid uniform was neat, and her backpack was ready for the trip.
Javier, however, was too excited in the courtyard. He rode Buddy, his bright orange Pekko, zooming around and laughing loudly.
Javier laughed joyfully, his hair flying in the wind as Buddy squawked and flapped its small wings.
Lady Francesca smiled as she watched her son play. "He truly is full of life," she said, feeling happy to see his fun with Buddy.
Nearby, Liana's Pekko, Pikko, was more calm. Pikko had beautiful silver and orange feathers and was relaxing in the sun, stretching her strong legs. The difference between the two Pekko matched their riders well.
