The boy sported a neat short haircut and was dressed in a white long-sleeved tee and coffee-colored trousers. His face was clean as a whistle, with tender, thick eyebrows. Although he was young, he already exuded a cool and handsome air that set him apart from others.
This was Atticus who had Thalassa all tied up in knots.
"Atticus!" Thalassa hurried over with the other three kids in tow, let go of their hands, then she scooped Atticus up from his swivel chair and held him tight. With a mix of relief and lingering fear, she said, "Baby, you scared the living daylights out of me. I thought you got lost."
Finally, her worries about Atticus eased up.
Thalassa fought back tears, stroking Atticus' tender face non-stop.
Atticus could feel his mother's concern and love. Although he wasn't the type to act cute, he wrapped his arms around Thalassa and rested his face against hers to reassure her, "Mom, I'm fine. Don't worry about me. I won't get lost."
The staff member who was about to reward Atticus chuckled, "That's right, ma'am. Your kid's super bright. With smarts like his, he definitely won't get lost. He's only four, but he's already fixed a computer that our staff couldn't handle. He's a real computer whiz."
Thalassa calmed down, looking puzzledly at the staff member, then back at Atticus, surprised. "Did you really fix someone's computer?"
Atticus nodded earnestly. His words, though childish, were clear and coherent. "After I left the restroom and couldn't find you, I was going to look for you in the lounge. But then I heard a man on the phone, saying the computer for managing surveillance was broken and the repairman couldn't fix it. He was desperately looking for other repairmen. I heard this and offered to give it a shot. So, he brought me here."
After saying all this, Atticus gave Dorian a meaningful glance and winked at him.
Picking up on his brother's hint, Dorian immediately straightened up and explained to Thalassa, "Mom, I'm ratting out my brother. He often reads books with computer graphics at night. Maybe that's why he can fix computers."
Thalassa finally understood how Atticus learned to fix computers.
The boy had followed a stranger to fix a computer out of his instinctive inclination to help others.
