"So, babe, I'm really happy too. But if you could let me compete in The Silent Ring, I'd be even happier..."
"Well, then you're not really happy, are you?"
The cozy atmosphere was totally thrown off by Mia's remark.
Mia pouted and teased, "Come on, babe, I haven't moved up in years. If I don't get promoted in three years, I'll be demoted! You're part of The Silent Ring too, can't you see where I'm coming from?"
Andre shook his head, "I just don't get it. What's the big deal with this Black Pass? If you need one, I'll give you mine. How many do you..."
Mia blinked innocently, "Honey, what's bugging you?"
Andre, catching himself, said, "I'll fight for you, okay?"
Mia, still not pleased, tugged at her husband's hand, pouting even more, "Babe, you always say I'm amazing for having your kids, and you can't even grant me this little wish. I'm telling you, I'm not feeling so happy anymore!" Mia pretended to be upset, her voice rising in mock frustration.
Andre replied, "Well, if it's gone, it's gone." He gestured to the big bed, "Let's just get some sleep."
Mia clung to his arm again, "Babe, if I get demoted, 'Auntie's' reputation is gonna take a hit."
"Heh, trust me, you won't."
Ever since his crew saw Mia's incredible fighting skills, The Silent Ring has been buzzing about the showdown potential between "Auntie" and "Mrs. Cedillo."
People were speculating, "Who do you think would win if our lady and 'Auntie' squared off? These two gals are tougher than most guys. I saw our lady knee a dude's jaw to pieces. And 'Auntie's' matches are wild and unpredictable. I'd pay to see that matchup."
Andre was feeling the pressure.
In his office, rubbing his temples, he said, "We were having such a nice chat last night, then she brought up The Silent Ring. I said no, and she got all upset. She didn't even touch the boiled egg I peeled for her this morning." Later, the ever-hungry Henry gobbled up the egg white, tossed the yolk, and got scolded afterward.
Noah thought, "Something's definitely off here."
Anya's life felt a bit off too lately.
After celebrating Henry's birthday, her boyfriend went wild as soon as they got home, kissing her like crazy, as if they'd broken up and made up all over again.
But Anya thought Chad was punishing himself for something she didn't do, which made his outburst of happiness even more confusing.
