“… 6,7,8…” The small chubby cheeked boy stopped counting and gave a mischievous grin as he uncovered one of his eyes and tried to steal a peek.

“No peeking,” A sweet melodious voice warned, making the boy to quickly clench his small hands on his lively and slightly mischievous eyes, once again.

“… 9, 10! Ready or not here I come.” The small boy squeaked in his high pitch voice.
