**: The Morning After**
The Shekhawat brothers—Siyat, Priyat, and Kriyat—step out of the corridor, where Kriyat is sitting with a bowl of porridge in his hand. The three brothers approach him.
Kriyat, taking a spoonful of porridge and moving it toward the girl, says, "Eat, princess."
The innocent girl scrunches her face at the porridge, making an unusual expression, and says, "I'm not sick."
Priyat squints his eyes and responds, "Princess, you are sick."
The girl points at the porridge with her hands and says, "We don't want to eat this," making a cute face.
Before either of the brothers can respond, a stern and terrifying voice fills the air.
Siyat, holding the spoon of porridge in his hand, firmly pushes it towards her, saying, "Eat, angel."
Frightened by Siyat's harsh tone, the girl hides her face in Kriyat's chest.
Siyat, looking at her with a serious expression, repeats in a strict voice, "Eat, angel, or I'll feed you in my own way."
The girl looks at Siyat, Priyat, and Kriyat with a helpless expression. But Kriyat and Priyat encourage her to eat, giving her gentle looks, and the girl finally eats the porridge.
Siyat, in a calmer tone, says, "Good. This is how a good girl behaves. Listen to us, or I'll use other ways to make you listen, and it won't be pleasant for you."
After a short while, the girl finishes her porridge.
Siyat, holding medicine in front of her, says, "Eat it."
The girl finds the medicine very bitter. She frowns and tells Siyat that she doesn't like it.
Siyat, irritated by her refusal, glares at her. He's never tolerated anyone's tantrums before, and this is the first girl who is consistently refusing to comply.
Seeing her hesitance, Siyat stares at her with an intense look. She quickly takes the medicine, then Siyat immediately offers her water.
Priyat, in a playful tone, says, "Now, time to sleep, princess. Tomorrow, you'll go to school with us."
Saying that, Priyat lifts the girl into his arms and gently places her on the bed. Within moments, the effects of the medicine make the girl drowsy, and she falls into a deep sleep.

** A New Morning**
Thanks to her habit of waking up early, the girl wakes up at 6:00 AM. She rubs her eyes and slowly gets up, still groggy.
Confused, she asks, "Where am I?" as she looks around. The memories of last night flood back into her mind, and she glances around, seeing that Siyat, Priyat, and Kriyat are still sleeping.
A smile appears on her face as she sees the three brothers sleeping peacefully.
She quietly climbs onto Siyat's stomach and whispers to herself, "So, this is what the devils look like. Yesterday, they wore masks."
She giggles, "Devilslook so cute when they sleep, just like us!" and starts to pinch Siyat's cheeks gently with her tiny hands. After a brief pause, she taps her own cheek, saying, "How do we tell which one is the sweet devil and which one is the angry devil?"
Thinking for a moment, she says, "No problem. When they wake up, I'll ask them." She then gives Siyat a gentle kiss on his cheek, whispering, "Good morning, devil."
She moves over to Priyat and kisses his cheek too, saying, "Good morning, second devil." Afterward, she returns to her place, satisfied with her morning kisses.
But then, a voice calls out.
Kriyat, with a playful look, says, "Princess, you didn't give your sweet devil a morning kiss?"
The girl turns to him and sees Kriyat watching her, amused. She climbs off Siyat and Priyat, moving to Kriyat's side. She kisses his cheeks, his nose, and then both of his eyes, saying, "Good morning, sweet devil."
Satisfied, she rests her head on Kriyat's chest, smiling.
The sight makes both Siyat and Priyat groan, "This isn't fair, angel. Doll, you gave him four kisses but only two to us."
The girl, with a mischievous smile, responds, "That's because I'm not as grumpy and angry as you both."
Hearing this, Siyat and Priyat are annoyed, while Kriyat bursts out laughing.
Siyat and Priyat exchange a look, then say together, "You don't laugh too much." They pull the girl towards them and kiss her cheeks, saying, "Good morning, angel. Doll."

** Preparing for School**
Siyat, now serious, says, "Okay, time for a shower. You remember that you're coming to school with us today, right?"
The girl, smiling, replies, "Yes, devils, we remember."
Kriyat warns, "Princess, don't make any friends there, and don't get too close to anyone."
The girl looks at them, puzzled, and asks, "But how will I talk to people if I don't make friends?"
Siyat, Priyat, and Kriyat respond in unison, "No friends, no getting too close." With that, they take her to the bathroom.
