Larry And Lawrie (Part 2)

"Your man-eating uncle forced you to come ?" Vanessa felt like falling into a laughing fit upon hearing Larry's words. She pinched his face and asked, "Your uncle is a cannibal? Is he really that scary?" "Shhh..." Larry reached out to cover Vanessa's mouth. "The scary uncle has a bad temper. He not only eats children but adults too. If he hears you badmouthing him, he will eat you too." "Okay, I'll keep quiet." Vanessa played along and pretended to look scared. "Larry, can you tell me why your scary uncle forced you to come here?" "It's sad. I don't really want to talk about it." Larry did not want to mention it! Every time he did, he felt that he was no longer the precious baby of the family. How could they send an adorable little kid himself off to danger?! "Okay, I won't ask then. However, you can't hide here. Your uncle will be worried if he can't find you." Vanessa held Larry's hand in hers as she planned to walk him out of the room. She had no plans to be mistaken as a kidnapper.
