based off this fan-fic by ChipmunkRaccoonOz Pokemon: ASBA - Ash adjusting to being a brotherIt was the morning after the day the Ketchum family brought a new member of the family into their home - Molly, the daughter of Delia's now late close friend since her high school days, Spencer Hale.Delia awoke to the sound of Molly's crying, as did Littie, her Litten who often slept with her.Delia: (yawns) I'm coming, sweetie.Pulling the covers away and revealing her light pink nightgown, she stepped out of her bed and headed for the baby's room, where there was a crib where baby Molly was lying in.As she entered the room, she could tell from the smell that the little one needed to be changed.Delia: Oh my. Someone needs a diaper change.As she went to pick up the baby, a small yawn could be heard outside the room. It was Delia's 4 year old son, Ash. He, too, had been awakened by his newly adopted sister's crying and was rubbing the sleepiness from his eyes.Delia: Morning, honey.Ash: (sniffs) P-U! Is that...Delia: Yes, unfortunately. Can you get your own breakfast, Ash? I have to tend to Molly right now.Ash: Sure, Mom.Ash made his way to the kitchen and got out some cereal to eat. As he ate, he thought how different things will be now that he and his mom had Molly living with them. He thought he would never be a big brother after his mom had been involved in that accident that left her unable to have children again.He remembered how heartbroken his mom was when that happened. He never told her, but he was disappointed. When the Hales offered to have Delia be Molly's godmother, he figured it was the next best thing to having a younger sibling. Then the whole incident involving Molly's birth parents' death happened.Part of him couldn't help be feel like it was all his fault that it happened - that he may have caused Molly's parents' death to happen. This feeling made Ash feel very bad.Soon, Delia and Littie came into the kitchen holding Molly.Delia: Oh, Ash. There you are.Ash: (gulps down some cereal) Hey, Mom. Everything okay now?Delia: Oh yes. I just need to get Molly's bottle ready.She then put Molly in a high chair got out a baby bottle and began warming some milk.Ash: (finishes his cereal) Say, Mom?Delia: Yes, honey?Ash: Did I cry as loud as that when I was that small?Delia: (smiles) Hmm, maybe. But then, all babies cry loud when they need something.Ash: Huh. Guess that's something I'll have to get used to.Delia: Oh yes. At least until she's older. Molly's about a year old now, so she won't be able to talk just yet.Ash: I guess so.Delia then brought the baby bottle over to Molly, who started guzzling down the milk.Ash: Whoa. She seems as hungry as I was.Delia: (chuckles) She certainly has a healthy appetite.Soon the bottle was empty. That meant it was time to burp Molly. Delia picked her up and started patting her back, until Molly let out quite a belch.Delia: (giggles) Oh my. That came right up from your toes.Molly merely cooed as she placed her back in the high chair.A little while later, Ash was thinking of something as he was watching one of his favorite programs. At the same time, Molly, who was now dressed in a blue baby dress with a bonnet, was on the floor playing with some toys.Ash's thoughts were interrupted when Littie came up on the couch with him.Ash: Oh! Hey, Littie. (pets her)Littie purred. She liked being petted. When Ash was much younger, he played too roughly with her, and she didn't like that. But now he knew to be gentle with her.Ash: Littie, d'ya think I'll be a good brother for Molly?Littie looked up at Ash and nodded.Ash: I guess I'm just worried. I know I said I wanted to be a big brother, but now that it's happened... I wonder if Molly will even like me or not. Not to mention the fact that I can't help but feel like it's somehow my fault.Littie looked up at Ash as if to ask what he meant by that. But bother Ash could reply, they were interrupted when a crashing sound of sorts could be heard. Apparently, Molly was building a tower of sorts with some blocks, but they fell - some falling right on top of her. She was so upset by the surprise, she began crying.Out of concern for his adopted sister, Ash ran over to Molly, picking her up in his arms.Ash: Hey, it's alright, Molly. (starts rocking her slightly) It's okay.After a moment, Molly stopped crying and looked up at her brother as he gently rubbed her head where the toy blocks hit it. He continued doing so as he sat back on the couch with her in his lap. Molly seemed to feel better now.Ash: (smiles) Attagirl.Just then, the front door opened. It was Delia - she was in her gardening attire. It was similar to her regular attire, although she was wearing a pair of worn-out Keds sneakers that she often wore when gardening.As she was slipping her feet out of her sneakers, she noticed Ash rubbing Molly's head on the couch.Delia: Oh, is Molly alright, dear?Ash: She's fine, Mom. She just had a little accident with her toy blocks.Molly cooed happily.Ash: But she's alright now.Delia: Oh. Well, that's good. (slips off her left sneaker) I'll be back after I change into my regular clothes. (heads upstairs)Ash: Kay, Mom.Soon Delia came back down dressed in her normal clothes and sat down beside her son. Littie meanwhile sat on the floor next to Delia's feet.Ash: Mom, can I tell you something?Delia: Of course, honey. What is it?So Ash finally admitted that when he learned Delia couldn't have children anymore, he tried to hide the fact that he was disappointed that he wouldn't be a big brother. Then after she became Molly's godmother, he was happy for her. But to him, it wasn't the same. Then the chaos that led to Molly's birth parents' death happened.Ash: Sometimes... Sometimes I feel like it's my fault... Molly won't ever know her birth-parents. (pause) I know I said I wanted to be a big brother... (weeps) But this isn't how I wanted it to happen.Ash started crying a little after telling his mom about this. Delia only smiled at her son, and patted him on the back.Delia: I'm very proud of you, Ash.Ash: (sniffles) W-What? You are? But-But I...?Delia: I'm glad you told me the truth, honey. I'd done my best to be strong for you after I had my accident, and I did consider your feelings when it happened.Ash: (wipes away a tear) Y-You did?Delia: (nods) Mm-hmm. But you shouldn't blame yourself for Molly's parents' death. The blame goes to the people who tried to kidnap them.Ash: So Molly's parents' death has nothing to do with me?Delia: (shakes her head) Of course not, sweetheart. Besides, I too feel sad that Molly won't ever know her real parents. (pause) When she's old enough, we should tell her the truth. But until that time, we need to keep it to ourselves. Can you do that for me, honey?Ash: I'll do my best, Mom... (pause, looks at Molly) But, Mom... Do you think she'll like me? Will I really be a good brother to her?Delia: (smiles) Ash... You're already being a good brother.Ash: I am?Delia: Mm-hmm. You helped her after her little accident with her toy blocks. So you're off to a good start. Right, Littie? (pets her)Littie purred as her Trainer petted her.Delia: So do you feel better now that we've talked about it?Ash: Very.Delia: Oh, good. I'm glad. And Ash? Next time you have a problem, always remember - You can always talk to me about it. Okay?Ash: (smiles) Thanks, Mom.Ash then hugged his Mom, and she hugged him and her adopted daughter right back. To Ash, it felt like an enormous weight had been taken off his shoulders.So, for the rest of the day, Ash spent as much time as he could with Molly, playing whatever she wanted, and helped her whenever she was hungry. He even played "This little Tepig" with Molly. She seemed to especially like it when Ash would tickle her at the end.That night, Ash asked if he could help put Molly to bed. Delia smiled and accepted Ash's offer. After dressing Molly in her nightwear, Ash gave her a hug and a kiss goodnight before he placed her in her crib.Then as he pulled the blanket over her, both Ash and Delia heard Molly say...Molly: A-A-Ash. (coos)Ash: (gasps) Did... Did she just say my name?Delia: My goodness...Ash: Molly, can you say it again?Molly: (giggles; coos) Ash.Ash: (excitedly) She said my name!Delia: (smiles) She certainly did.Ash managed to contain his excitement long enough to help tuck Molly in and headed outside the room.Ash: She said her first word, and it's my name.Delia smiled at her son as they tiptoed outside the baby's room.Delia: Well, she's only been with us a couple of days, and she likes you already. You see, honey? You have nothing to worry about. Now let's get you to bed, young man.Ash: (yawns) Yeah, okay.With that, Ash was soon in his PJs, feeling much better about being a big brother as Delia tucked him in.Delia: Ash, I'm very proud of you for what you did for Molly today.Ash: Thanks, Mom. (yawns) Too bad Dad wasn't here today, though. I think he'd be glad that Molly likes me, and has even learned to say my name.Delia: (nods) Mm, I know, honey. But he is busy with the International Police. (pause) I'll tell ya what. First thing tomorrow morning, we'll give him a call and we'll let him know what happened today. How's that sound?Ash: (smiles) Deal.They locked pinkies, sealing the deal, before Delia gave him a kiss.Delia: Good night, sweetie. Sleep well.Ash: (yawns) Yeah... Night, Mom. Love you.Delia: (smiles) I love you, too.With that, Ash shut his eyes as Delia stepped out of his room, and shut the door.The end
