Davin muttered, “Mom, don’t worry. My brother’s kids are all smart children. They’ll be one of the best in the future. I’m afraid that even Evan will lose to them.”
Sophia responded, “I’ll be glad if they really can be better than Evan.”
“No worries, Mom. They will,” her younger son reassured.
“Oh, I was too preoccupied with your brother. You should do your best with Sheila too. I’m waiting to raise your kids. Now that Evan’s kids are all grown up, I miss the times when they were younger. They were so cute. Everyone loved them.”
That remark made Sheila smile awkwardly. “Sophia, please continue eating. If you keep talking, the food will turn cold.”
Maya took more servings of food for Sophia. “That’s right. Grandma, eat more. You have to trust Uncle Davin. She’ll have cute lambs soon. Baa, baa!” the young girl said as she put her hands on top of her head as if they were sheep horns. Although she was already a teenager, she was still adorable as ever.
Sophia laughed at the sight. “Why don’t I let you take care of their children when they have them?”
“Sure. I’m just scared Uncle Davin can’t bear to part with them.”
“Of course I can. I’ll let the four of you take care of them. With cousins like you, they’ll definitely be smart kids too.”
“Then hurry up and have some babies already. I keep urging you even though you’re an adult now. What’s going on in that head of yours?”
“Yes, yes. It’ll be soon!”
At that, Sheila sneakily kicked him and whispered, “If you want me to give birth to your children, you’ll have to cut ties with your ex-girlfriend first.” Then, she even pinched Davin’s thigh hard.
“Ouch!” he wailed.
“What’s wrong?”
“Nothing. I’m fine.” He hurriedly dug into his meal.
