"Maybe not with your mouth but definitely with your eyes."
Jackson blurted out a laugh. He had never heard a truer statement lately. It was a trait his son inherited from him, making it more hilarious. "I like this girl. Where have you been hiding from our lives?"
Eve smiled. She was half-glad and half-relieved that her jokes worked. Her nose caught a whiff of alcohol and linked it to his current behavior. It surely showed her a new side of him.
"Have you ever checked under a desk?" She joked, keeping the mood up.
Jackson laughed louder than he did seconds ago. His finger shook at her as if she was a kid that had done something bad. But, his eyes and smile were warm. "Definitely one in a million."
"Why thank you."
Ambryan approached Eve from behind. He placed his hands on her shoulders and stirred her towards the bowling lanes. "Let's go practice. Loser buys dinner around here despite how parents are responsible for feeding their children."
"Sorry, the number you have reached is not in service."

On another note, guess I answered Eve's wishes. Hehehe. Or did I? Hmmm. Oh well.

Have a good day!
