She had barely taken a drag when April snatched the cigarette away, snuffed it out, and waved her hand dismissively.

“Mr. Dashiell cares so much about the bun in the oven, and smoking ain’t exactly flavor of the month. How about you lay off it for a bit?”

Looking visibly irritated, Evelina slapped her belly with a thud.

“Ugh, so annoying!”

April tried to console her, and Evelina’s face finally softened.

Just then, the doorbell rang.

“Is that Mr. Dashiell coming to see you?”

Lit up with excitement, Evelina jumped off the couch and made a beeline for the door. Then, thinking of she’d just smoked, she paused and said,

“April, keep him busy for a sec, and I’ll be right there.”
