[ Morgan is more than ready to climb into Vero's embrace, giggling happily as his tiny arms wind around him and squeeze tight.
The small child won't give Vero any answers, but Lyric will. ] It was his idea - he came up with most of this himself. [ She gestures to Morgan with the ladle in her hand. ] He... no, both of us. I know I've said "thank you" many times before but we wanted to properly thank you for everything you've done for us.
[ "It's a party!" Morgan chimes in helpfully. And Lyric laughs a little before continuing. ] You don't get a say in this, by the way. We're celebrating you.
Vero wants to argue so badly. This isn't necessary. He helps out as much as he does because he loves Lyric and Morgan, and he knows Lyric would do the same for him any day. But he looks between Morgan, so happy in his arms, and Lyric and he suddenly can't find it in himself to argue.
He feels his face burn, though, and just the slightest pre-cry tingles.] Fine.. just this once though, got it?
[That's directed at Lyric clearly. Morgan gets a big ol' cheek smooch.] Can't believe you planned this, little guy. Thank you...
But for now, Lyric will relent with a simple "I know." before ducking back into the kitchen to finish whatever she's making for dinner. Morgan, meanwhile, squeals in delight and returns that big ol' cheek smooch with one equally as big and affectionate. ] Mm-hm! I looooove you!
[ his favorite!! person!!! that isn't Lyric!!!!! ] I gotsta show you something, okay? It's just for you!! [ He points in the direction of his bedroom. Take him there, take him there!! ]
[Vero never would have considered himself good with kids before Morgan was born. But it's so easy with Morgan - there's no being uncomfortable or unsure like with other children. It's probably because he's Lyric's kid.]
Just for me??? [Well alright then!! Taking Morgan to his bedroom!!]
