Henry looked utterly lost, his little face all scrunched up. “But Dad, I can't beat the bad guys~"

Andre just sighed. Why was this kid so hard to teach? He was nothing like Andre imagined.

Mia, who'd been listening in for a while, finally jumped in. “Well, what if Mommy skips a meal and loses all her strength? Who's going to help then?"

Andre seized the moment and shot his son a look. "So, will my little man protect Mia?"

Backed into a corner, Henry had no choice but to puff up his chest. “I will, Dad! I'm super strong-I can protect Mommy for sure."

Andre nodded, all serious. "Then a real little man never cries. If you cry, you can't call yourself a little man."

Henry, not catching on to his dad's ploy, shook his head with determination. He had no clue Andre was setting him up for tomorrow.

Asher hitched a ride with Teddy; the two godfathers lounged in the car, chatting away.

"Lizzy doesn't like wearing them,” he replied.
