Teasing Phoenix
Mom giggles, “Aren’t you a charming, Phoenix. I like your name, very mystical.”
“Samantha didn’t say the same though.”
I roll my eyes again.
“Oh, honey. She likes something more from you other than your unique name.” Mom slaps his arm playfully.
My eyes widen, my lips part. I’m sure I’m terribly blushing right now.
“You’re actually right about that, Mrs. Anderson.” Phoenix winks at me with his playful smile.
“Oh, these are for you.” He offers the flowers and wine he promised to bring with him.
