Leon and His Stepmother
"I'm so happy to see you like this!"
Leon replied casually, "Sonya helped me with my college assignments, Dad. She's smart, it turns out. I feel bad for being so rude to her all the time."
Gito nodded contentedly. "That's great! You should have been like that from the start, Leon. Sonya is your stepmother, you have to respect her."
"Now I understand, Dad," replied Leon, glancing at Sonya with a look that only the two of them understood.
In his heart, Leon whispered to himself, 'I made peace with Sonya because she's good in bed. It's that simple, Dad.'
