Hitched & Hitched Again: A Comedy of Marital Mayhem novel Chapter 534

When Tarquin finally nodded in agreement, he couldn't help but smile and respond, "Alright."

So, the family of six decided to make a detour to Sunshine Community first.

The festive decals were something Elysia had picked up that morning. This year's model was magnetic, eliminating the need for messy paste or tape, making the whole process much simpler and more convenient.

The family divided the tasks among themselves efficiently. Elliot and EvanElijah were in charge of sorting out the festive decals and figuring out where each should go.

Emmett was tasked with transportation, handing over the decals that Elliot and the others had prepared to Elysia.

Elysia and Tarquin were in charge of putting them up.

As Tarquin got to work, Elysia directed him from behind, "It's crooked, move it a bit to the left... oh no, now it's too far left, a bit to the right."

Tarquin teased her, "You've already bought them, why didn't we put these up before heading out?"

Elysia retorted, "How could I do it without you here?"

"You mean you can't put up decals without me? Are you saying you're too clumsy to even do that?"

Elysia rolled her eyes in disdain, "You're the clumsy one! I've heard from the elders that you can't put up these decorations until the whole family is together. You can't leave anyone out; everyone has to be home first. I would have done it earlier if we weren't waiting for you."

Tarquin gave her a meaningful look, "Am I considered family?"

Elysia was momentarily taken aback, but before she could respond, Tarquin continued, "What about those who work away from home and can't make it back for the holidays?"

Elysia snapped back to reality, "That's different. I'm talking about those who can make it home."

Tarquin didn't pursue the conversation further.

After their efforts, the previously bare house finally felt festive.

The decals made everything look bright and lively.
