Simeon and Lucifer ambled over to Michael. Apparently the latter had something to give Lucifer.
“Don’t you think it’s about time you raise a younger angel?” Simeon asks. Lucifer took a moment to reply, “I don’t think I’m cut out for that.”
“You say that and still take care of the young fledgling under Michael.” Simeon chuckled, Lucifer rolled his eyes. “His name is Mammon.”
Before Simeon could reply, Michael had called out the brothers name.
“Is something troubling you, Michael?” Simeon asked as he noticed the tired look on the angel’s face. Michael slowly turned around and to the brothers surprise, Mammon was on his back sleeping calmly.
“Lucifer, I apologise for putting the burden on you. Can you take Mammon under your care? I can’t seem to handle him.” Michael sighed.
Lucifer, with shaking hands took Mammon from Michael’s back. “Are you sure? I don’t mind but Michael, are you really sure about your decision?” Lucifer asked.
“Yes, it’s finale. Again, I apologise for putting the trouble on you.” Michael bowed. “Excuse me, I have work to attend to.”
“Alright then.” Lucifer nodded, “farewell, Michael!” Simeon waved.
A moment of silence went by. Lucifer couldn’t help but stare at the younger one who was sleeping in his arms.
“Lucifer, you’re really happy, aren’t you? After all you just got a younger brother!” Simeon quipped as he circled around Lucifer with happiness.
“A younger brother…?” Lucifer muttered, Simeon nodded.
The younger one was merely only a few hundreds year old. In human age, Mammon would be 5.
Lucifer never really imagined having a younger brother. He had Simeon, and that was enough. But today… Michael had given him a younger brother. One that he adored since day one.
“Oh you’re really happy… to the point your crying…” Simeon says, shocked and worried at the same time.
“Ah- I apologise. I didn’t even notice.” Lucifer says as he wiped his tears.
Mammon slowly opened his eyes. When he saw Lucifer his face immediately brightened up.
“Hello, Mammon. Are you alright with being under my care?” Lucifer asks, Mammon raises a brow before realising what the older one had said.
“Really?” Mammon mumbled out. Lucifer nodded his head, smiling at the younger one.
Mammon threw his arms around Lucifer and nodded his head excitedly.
Lucifer felt his heart skip a beat at the action. Mammon soon got off and bowed.
“I’m gonna go tell Simeon!” Mammon exclaimed, Simeon ruffled with the younger one’s hair. “I’m right here.”
Mammon looked over to Simeon and smiled, “you’re my older brothers now!”
Lucifer whispered to Simeon, “he’s too cute… I might die”
“I feel the same.” Simeon whispered back. Both the elder ones had a red blush on his face.
“I’m hungry…” Mammon mumbled, embarrassed at the way his stomach growled.
“Let’s go eat then.” Lucifer let out a hand. Mammon held it and gave Simeon a hand which the angel accepted.
That was their first younger sibling.
