However, the memories of last night were like a movie on repeat in his head, and he could not argue with the playback. Was he really going to confess that seeing Evangeline and Alex all lovey-dovey made him so mad that he dragged Caden out to find scompany?

Walter set the last dish on the table and, with a swift motion, pulled out a chair for her.
"You're trying for a baby, you can't skip breakfast! I've cooked it all, so just try a little, okay?" They had been living together for a while, yet Walter still was not quite sure what Evangeline liked to eat. He made a mental note of her usual favorites and hoped for the best.
