Xyla actually dared to speak to Stanley like that. Did she have a death wish?

“Alright, alright. I’ll listen to you,” said Stanley, shaking his head helplessly. There was a gentle look in his eyes.

Covering Xyla up with his coat, he buttoned it up for her from behind, then shifted it until the buttons were in front. “You can put your hands through the sleeves now. It’ll feel more comfortable that way.”
