The two kids stared at their father, utterly confused.
Juan giggled. “You’re amazing, Daddy! Maya and Nina are allies now!”
“What?”
Evan stared at Juan, befuddled by his words.
“They fought last night and won’t talk to each other, but they’re willing to unite against you, their common enemy!” Juan explained.
“…”
Common enemy?
Do they really hate me so much?
“Tell them to get in the car,” Evan said emotionlessly.
Juan shrugged wordlessly.
They’ll have no problem beating me up if they wanted to!
Evan glanced at Kyle, who gave him an exasperated look. “Daddy, Nina’s not going to listen to me…”
Why are they scared of two little girls?
“What a coward!” Evan chided.
“Daddy! They’ve got Mommy’s genes and we got ours from you! If you can’t win her in an argument, what makes you think we can?” Juan retorted, shrugging.
He’s blaming my genes now?
Who says I can’t win Nicole in an argument?
I don’t care what goes on women’s heads! Besides, she hasn’t picked an argument with me for days…
Evan pinched Juan’s face. “If you dare call me a coward, I’ll sew your mouth up!”
Juan hurriedly covered his mouth in mock fear.
Evan glared at him warily and walked off to catch up with Maya and Nina.
Maya continued to bawl her eyes out as Nina tried her best to calm her down. “Stop crying in public! It’s embarrassing!”
“Hey! Stop right there!” a voice called from behind.
Nina ignored the voice and pulled Maya away.
Evan was speechless. Did Nicole not teach them any manners?
“Stop right there! We’re going to find Mommy,” Evan yelled.
