"Whatever, playing video games is way more fun than hanging out with girls!" Everett was about to grab his phone, "Say that again, and I'll record it for your future girlfriend to hear." "Go ahead! Fine by me!" Dorothy, while dishing out scereal for breakfast, couldn't help but chin, "You two are acting like you're not even two years old combined! Everett, are you really stooping to his level?" Langston was just a kid! Of course, he was all about fun and games right now. How could he understand the importance of a girlfriend? "I'm just collecting sdirt on him early! That way, if he steps out of line when he's got a girlfriend, I'll have something to hold over him," Everett said as he naturally took over Dorothy's task. Dorothy raised an eyebrow, "Oh? And you're planning to meddle in who he dates?" Just like... Jonathan Lopez would meddle in his.

"Don't worry, listening to your son, he doesn't plan on finding anyone." "Him? No way! If it's genetic, by middle school, he'll definitely have someone he likes." Dorothy glanced over, only to find Everett had been looking at her for who knows how long.
Langston rolled his eyes in exasperation.

Instead, she sounded quite composed.
Dorothy was reviewing soffice renovation designs and quickly excused herself with an apologetic look to the designer before stepping aside. "Is this the best you can do for me?" "Aren't you satisfied?" "Who wouldn't want more?" Dorothy chuckled, "Especially from Everett He's got so much, and this is just a drop n the ocean! Even for child support, it's hardly enough Quincy scoffed, "Child support? If you hadn't brought it up, I'd have forgotten to tell you! Mr. Lopez said it's tto start trying for a baby We're probably going to have our own child soon! By then... you might not even get this much. You better think it over."
"Trying for a baby?!" Dorothy's voice pitched higher, "You're actually m planning to have a baby? Did Everett actually say that?" "Of course!"
"I don't believe it!" Dorothy immediately retorted, "I can't believe Everett would say that to you! He clearly... clearly toldhe would loveforever!" Quincy felt this reaction was more like it.
Previously, Dorothy seemed indifferent, but that was all a façade!
