After dinner, Calix dragged Evelyn to the backyard for a stroll together with Leslie and Calliope. Once they stepped outside the house, he told his younger sister to run around the lake for a few laps.
"What for? Are you playing a prank on me?"
Narrowing her eyes, Evelyn glared at Calix with clear doubts on her face. She fully believed her annoying second brother didn't suggest that with a good intention in his mind.
True to her suspicions, he guffawed at her remark, earning confused looks from her sister-in-law and young niece.
"My dear sister, I'm saying it for your own benefit ah," Calix shrugged, wearing a smug look on his face, "Do it. You'll drop dead sleeping once your head hits the pillow."
"Y-you! Humph!"
Ignoring Calix, Evelyn shifted her attention to Calliope. The sour look on her face mellowed as soon as her eyes locked onto the little dumpling's.
Eve might be heartbroken but, she'll be our most-needed cupid! XD
