**A New Family Bond**
Part 7
As the days went by, Kratos's affection for Mercury and Venus only grew stronger. One sunny afternoon, as the three planets were lounging in the warmth of the celestial rays, Kratos looked up at Mercury with sparkling eyes and said, "Papa Mercury, can you teach me more about the solar system?" Mercury's face lit up with a radiant smile as he replied, "Of course, little one! I'd be delighted to share all my knowledge with you." Kratos's eyes shone with excitement as he turned to Venus and said, "And Mama Venus, can you sing me a lullaby?" Venus's surface glowed with warmth as she began to sing a soothing melody, her voice like a gentle breeze on a summer day. Mercury and Venus exchanged a glance, both of them taken aback by Kratos's sudden use of affectionate titles. They had grown accustomed to Kratos's love and admiration, but hearing him call them "Papa" and "Mama" was a new experience altogether. Solara, who was watching from a distance, smiled knowingly. She had been waiting for this moment, and she knew that it was a significant milestone in the development of their little celestial family. As the realization dawned on Mercury and Venus, they looked at each other with joy and amazement. Solara stepped forward, a warm smile on her face, and said, "It seems we have a new family dynamic here! Congratulations, Mercury and Venus, you are now officially Kratos's parent planets!" The celestial community erupted in congratulations and well-wishes, with planets and stars alike sending their love and support to the happy family. Mercury and Venus beamed with pride, their surfaces glowing with happiness as they wrapped their orbits around Kratos, holding him close. Kratos, sensing the love and excitement, grinned from ear to ear, knowing that he had found his forever family with Mercury and Venus. As they celebrated this new chapter in their lives, Solara looked on, her heart full of warmth and joy, knowing that Kratos had finally found his place in the universe. From that day on, the three planets were inseparable, a happy family of three, bound together by love, care, and a deep connection to the cosmos.
