My Husband Teased Me at a Pool Party, Saying I Wasn’t as Attractive as His Brother’s New Wife S0 I Put Him in His Place, and He’ll Never Forget It…

“Mama? Is it morning-morning or nighttime-morning?”

“It’s shhh-morning, buddy,” I whispered back. “Go crawl in with Daddy. I’ll come get you soon.”

I rocked in the same worn chair.

“Daddy’s snoring.”

“I know, sweetheart. He’s very good at it.”

I heard tiny footsteps pad away, then a thump, then silence. I closed my eyes for exactly four seconds before Onica hiccupped awake.
