How'd you get a sister all of a sudden ? " Zackery and Yoel didn't know either . They just knew that Harold went out and came back with Sherry . Remembering what Zeina had said , Yoel said , " Uncle Harold time - traveled and got a daughter . " The kids exclaimed , " Wow , that's so cool ! That's amazing . " That day , the kids went home and begged their dads to time - travel and get them a cute baby sister . No surprise , they got a good spanking from their dads . Then rumors started flying . Some said Harold was building a time machine . Others said he was making artificial wombs so men could have babies . When Harold heard it , he glared at Zackery and Yoel , wanting to smack them . Seeing his look , Zackery and Yoel quickly hid behind Sherry . Sherry looked up at Harold , took out a flower , and handed it to him . " Dad , here's a flower for you ." Harold's anger faded fast . Ignoring his mischievous nephews , he looked at his little daughter , frowned a bit , and asked , " Why are your clothes wet ? " Sherry looked a bit shy , held her little hands together , and said softly , " I slipped and fell into a snowdrift . " Harold glanced at her short legs and smiled . Zeina took Sherry for a warm bath and changed her clothes , worried . " Sweetie , don't go out tomorrow ; it's too cold . " But Sherry shook her head . " No , I need to earn money for Uncle Julius .

Grandma will cook for you . " Hearing this , Zackery looked horrified and said , " Grandma , are you trying to poison Sherry ? " Zeina's face went stiff . She glared at him with disgust , thinking , ' Grandkids are useless ; they can't even talk right . Sherry said in a sweet , soft voice , " Whatever's fine . I'm not picky . Thanks , Grandma . " " Still , my little granddaughter is such a good girl , " Zeina said . She hugged Sherry again and then headed to the kitchen while humming a tune . Zackery and Yoel looked at Sherry and sighed . " You'll regret this , " they said . Sherry just stared at them , not getting why they said that . Sherry sat at the table , looking at the burned food on her plate . She blinked , looking unsure , and glanced at Zeina . She wondered , ' Can I really eat this ? What if it makes me sick ? ' But seeing how eager Zeina looked , Sherry took a small breath . Then she bravely reached out with her fork . Before she could grab the burnt piece , Harold picked her up . " Come on . I'll take you out to eat ." 1/3 02:02 Mon , Sep 8 GGG .

Worried she might be sad , Sherry hugged her tightly and said sweetly , " Grandma , when I'm older , I'll cook for you ." Seeing how uneasy Sherry was , Zeina gently squeezed Sherry's little hand .

When they got back from dinner and the noise started up again , his annoyance got worse . He waited quietly , not sure what he was waiting for . After everyone went to their rooms and the house got quiet , Julius's heart sank . He didn't know why he felt this way all of a sudden . Right then , his door flew open , and his heart calmed down . Even though he didn't want to admit it , he realized he'd been waiting for Sherry .. Sherry walked over and , just like yesterday , handed Julius a wad of loose change . She also gave him a lunchbox and said , " Uncle Julius , here's a piece of cake I brought you . It's really good . Want some ? " " No , " Julius said coldly , turning his head . He complained in his heart , ' You left me alone at home for so long , didn't come see me first when you got back , and now you're trying to bribe me with this ? Forget it ! ' Sherry didn't give up . She hurried to the other side with her short legs , eyes fixed on him . She opened the box and waved it in front of him . " It's really good . Just try one bite . Please ." Her tone was like she was coaxing a kid to eat . Julius gave a cold snort and looked away . Sherry ran up again . " Just one bite , Uncle Julius . " Julius just turned his head blankly . After a few tries , Sherry was exhausted , panting hard. ' She should get mad and leave now , ' Julius thought . Then , he felt the bed dip beside him . He turned and saw Sherry climbing up , shaking her head proudly . " Now I don't have to run back and forth . " She scooped up some cake with a spoon and held it to his mouth , her own mouth open wide , " Take this . " Julius spoke , " No- ."

He thought , Just like Harold , she is so bossy , too . His face was scary enough to frighten kids , but Sherry didn't even flinch . She kept feeding him , chattering about her stories . Actually , Julius had seen it all on the monitor , but he didn't stop her . He just listened and enjoyed it . Before he knew it , Sherry had fed him almost a whole cupcake . Suddenly , Julius sensed something . He turned and saw Harold standing at the door , out of nowhere . Harold leaned against the doorframe , arms crossed , and smirked , " Cake looks good . Want some ? Just eat it ; no need to act . " Julius froze . With a blank look , he pushed Sherry's hand away. " No , thanks . " Harold scoffed . He picked up Sherry and glanced at Julius . " That program you wrote needs fixing . Fix it and call it payback . " Julius stared in disbelief . " Harold , you know I'm a patient now , right ? " " I know , " Harold said , looking like a tough boss . " Your hands are fine . Just write it . I need it tomorrow . " Julius wanted to throw money at him . He wouldn't work for Harold for a few bucks . Then Sherry cheered , " Making that robot ? Uncle Julius, you're the best ." Julius swallowed his words . ' Maybe it'll work , ' he thought .
