“Has Deanna been causing you any trouble, Brian?”
Noemi’s voice floated through the receiver.
“Not at all,” Brian responded. “She’s been good.”
“I hear you’ve been playing the knight for Rosalynn Lately. Are things better between you two now?”

His eyebrows furrowed, Brian questioned, “What did Deanna say to you, Mom?”
“Why would you think she told me anything? Unless there’s something Rosalynn did that you’re afraid

Her tone suggested that Deanna had indeed spilled some beans.
Glancing to the dining room, Brian caught sight of a delicate figure.
He bit his Lip before speaking.
“Mom, Rosalynn and I have been married for quite a while now. It’s about time she met you formally. I’ll
bring her over once my current assignment wraps up.”
“There’s no need for you both to travel. I’ll be back next week. Let your father know. We can all catch

Startled, Rosalynn quickly sliced a piece of steak and took a bite. The meat melted in her mouth.
It was perfectly cooked.
