"Mommy, Aunt Michelle, what are you two doing? Are you two..." Justin studied his mother and Michelle, a thoughtful look on his face. It seemed that he had something more he wanted to say, but he hesitated, unsure of how to say it.
"What? Huh? What are you trying to say?" Daisy raised her eyebrows at her son, waiting for him to continue his words. If he rudely said what he was thinking, then he would be punished for sure. She was his mother, after all. So, how could she not know what his little brain was thinking right now?
"Umm. Nothing, nothing. You two continue. I didn't see anything. Really. You can just ignore me." Justin's face had fallen, and he looked at his mother with sad eyes. His mother only knew how to threaten him. He was just stating what he had seen, that was all. He wished she didn't have to be like this.
"But you have already interrupted us. So, come on. What do you want?" Daisy rolled her eyes at the look on her son's face. He was becoming more and more brazen, just like Edward. She didn't know what the two were doing and talking about when they were alone without her. All in all, her son was no longer the tame and docile child he had been.
"Daddy asked me to tell you that, maybe Uncle Luke wouldn't get jealous when he sees you two, but daddy would surely get jealous seeing you hug so tightly." Justin snickered at his own words. His father really was the jealous type. Well, he had just said what his daddy told him to. His mother wouldn't get mad and punish him for that, would she?
"Ha ha! It seems that Edward is getting jealous." Michelle was bemused at hearing Justin's words. At the same time, she was also envious. She really wanted a loving relationship like that which Daisy and Edward shared. They were faithful to each other. And most importantly, they loved each other deeply. Michelle hoped to one day have the chance to know the workings of a happy marriage.
"Don't mind him. The more attention you give him, the more dramatic he will be. He is just bored and making things up, I'm sure." Though Daisy said these words, she couldn't help but look in Edward's direction. Her gaze lingered on the handsome man who was standing far removed from them. It was evident that Daisy cared very much for her husband.
"Mommy, you are wrong this time. Daddy also said that if you didn't listen to him, then he would surely keep you busy tonight," Justin said with a sly smirk on his face. Yes, he had told his mother the exact words his father told him. He had just let out the rest of what his father had said. He didn't know that passing a message for his daddy would be this much fun.
"What? He said those exact words? Edward! What did you tell Justin?" Daisy shouted while quickly running towards Edward, who was now looking her way. Seeing her angry like this, Edward suddenly had a bad feeling. He was not afraid of her, of course. But he considered for a few seconds whether he should flee. Maybe it would be better for him to speak with Daisy when she had calmed down first. He didn't know what Justin had just told her, so, he didn't understand her sudden anger.
