More Weeds than Flowers

Kea watched his sister work for a moment. The determined set of her face only egged his plan on. He was grinning as he wiggled his way into the flowerbed. Luckily, he was still a small bean. He was able to keep his head below the tallest plants as he wiggled his way closer to Talyssa. When she finished pulling out a root and paused, scanning, he froze.

Hunkering below the flowers and breathing shallowly as he watched, and waited for her eyes to land on another weed. The moment she got to work, he started forward again. Closer… closer… ah huh! He burst out of the flowers with a loud roar, aiming to tackle his sister. “For the weeds!” He cried, as if he was avenging the plants she was culling.
