Chapitre 176: Baby

Annabeth chuckled as the little baby clutched her finger. She looked down at the little child in her hand and then back up at Antonio. "Come here."

Antonio flinched, his cheeks heating up immediately at Annabeth's words. "W-What?"

Annabeth looked up at him, her eyebrows rising in curiosity. "You don't want to come?" she asked to which Antonio stared at her blankly, his eyes falling to the baby in her hands and then back up to her face. 

He stepped back a bit. "Ah… no…" he muttered, a nervous chuckle leaving his lips. "I'm not that good with babies… I've never actually been in close contact with them before so I'm not sure if I'd be that much of a good presence around them." 

Annabeth grinned, standing up from her position on the ground. "Well then," she muttered looking down at the baby in her hand for a moment. She shook its little arms with a bright smile on her face. "Should we go to him then, sweetie?"
