Chapter 3 - Chapter 3- Inventor

"Michael" Devin called from inside the house."yes mom" Michael replied he lifted his head from the inside of a car in the garage. "Come eat.what are you working on?" Devin asked, peeking his head into the door. "I will clean up mom" Michael said, getting out of the hole where the engine was. "That was not Sam's car was it?" Devin inquired as they both went inside. "Yeah it was his stupid van i am fixing" michael declared as he went to wash up.

When a small baby boy with brown eyes was born. "I wanna name him Michael" Devin said with a smile, holding the little one. "Oliver denver-smith" Sam said Devin sighed a bit. "So Michael Oliver denver-smith" Devin said as his new son grabbed his finger.

"Yep" said but now Devin wasn't really paying attention. He was about to cry because his son was holding his finger. "I love you Michael " Devin whispered.

That afternoon he took his new son home and showed his other son Garret his baby brother. "Garett this is your new brother Michael" Davin told the little orange haired one. He giggled seeing his new brother. Brother Garett said in baby talk."Yes he is your baby brother," Devin said with a great big smile.

Although Devin tried hard to love all his children equally, he found himself developing a special fondness for a particular little boy. He understood that showing favoritism was not appropriate, so he made a conscious effort to treat all his children fairly. At that time, Devin already had two children, Garrett and Michael. However, Sam's influence led to Devin having another baby.

In the year 2159, during the month of July, Devin arrived home with a baby in tow. The baby had soft blond hair, and Devin excitedly called out to Garret and Michael, "Come and meet your new brother, Charles!" . Garret made a sour face then stated "i don't want another pink thing i like the one i have". Michael, or Micky, as his older brother and mother fondly called him, wore a look of curiosity on his face.

Mike gently reached out and said, " Baby Charlie," as he moved his fingers toward his baby bro. Dev warned him, "be gentle, buddy." Mike softly touched his brother's cheek, and a giggle came out of his mouth. Mike smiled and said, "My baby bro!" Dev asked, "Uh, Garret, wanna hold him?" Garret didn't say anything; he just shook his head and ran back to his room fast.

In contrast to Garret's apparent indifference toward the newborn, Michael was overjoyed to have another brother. Devin refrained from pressuring Garret to interact with his infant sibling. With arms outstretched, Michael eagerly exclaimed, "Momma, me hold baby Charlie." Devin smiled and responded, "Go sit on the couch, and I'll let you hold Charlie." In his excitement, Michael dashed toward the couch, injuring his knee in the process.

Despite his excitement, he managed to control himself, sitting quietly on the couch, though his body was still trembling with anticipation. "Hold his head securely," Devin said as he handed the baby to Michael. "Okay, Momma," Michael replied, taking the newborn with great care. "Baby bro" Michael said gently snuggling his new baby brother.

Unlike Garret, who steered clear of the infant, Michael was stoked about the arrival of his younger brother. He was all over his mom, always asking how he could help out with the baby. His mother would say you are too young to help you are still a baby yourself you just learned to walk. Michael just wanted to help in some way.

With the arrival of his new baby brother, the young boy realized he needed to help out his exhausted mother. He observed that it took hours for his mother to rock the baby to sleep, depriving both of them of much-needed rest. To address this, the boy devised a plan to create a comforting rocker for his brother. He designed the rocker to mimic his mother's scent and incorporated soothing music. Through his research, he also discovered that soft blankets could aid in inducing sleep for babies.

Additionally, Michael created the world's softest blanket, hoping it would bring comfort and warmth to his mother and brother. As Michael proudly exclaimed, "Momma look," he unveiled his invention to Devin. With wide-eyed astonishment, Devin uttered, "You made this?" A gentle smile spread across Michael's face as he replied, "It's for baby bro." Devin carefully placed Charlie in the rocking chair, Michael switched it on, and wrapped his brother securely in a blanket. Within minutes, Charlie drifted off peacefully into slumber.

The soft blanket, the gentle rocking motion of the chair, and the peaceful atmosphere of the nursery had created a soothing environment conducive to sleep. As Devin closed his eyes, he felt a sense of contentment wash over him. He had not realized how tired he was until that moment. The gentle sounds of Michael's breathing and Charlie's soft snores filled the air, creating a comforting symphony that lulled Devin into a deep and restful sleep.

Michael was passionate about inventing things to make his mother's life easier, though it was never his intention to earn his affection. However, his clumsiness often led to injuries, which worried his mother.
