"Mr. Jules, what is a suitor?"

Jules paused for a moment, then smiled and ruffled the boy's hair. "It means you are your mommy's number one guy!"

"No," Seven corrected immediately in his soft voice, his little eyebrows knitting together slightly as he stated seriously, "I am Mommy's son!"

His manner clearly implied that Jules was wrong.
