“I bite my toungue.” He says, still sobbing a little.

“Oh sweetie, that hurts. Is it better now?” Tina asks as she strokes his chin.

“Yes.” He replies.

“Good. Open your mouth, let’s see if there’s a booboo there.” Tina says.

He opens his mouth and Tina looks. She doesn’t see anything.

“There’s no booboo. You want to finish the burger?” Tina asks.

“Yes, please.” He says. Tina lifts him off of her lap and down on the chair again. Kit has looked on and has a smile on her face at the way Tina clearly loves this little boy as her own. He goes at the burger again with full force.

“It’s a great thing you and Bette are doing for him.” Kit says and smiles.

“Yeah, well. He’s a good kid, and Martin is a good man. I still love him and I consider him a good friend. When he told me that he’s not going to be able to take care of him. I couldn’t say no when he asked me. Me and Bette had already fallen for him.” Tina says and smiles down at Evan, who is still eating.

“Yeah, I can see why. He’s adorable. So, is there anything else I can help you with until you guys leave?” Kit asks.

“I can’t think of anything right now, but I’ll let you know. “ Tina says.

“Okay, good. Well I should get back to work. Please tell my sister next time you talk to her, that she’ll call me too once in a while?” Kit says.

“I will. I’ll talk to her tonight.” Tina says and smiles.

“Okay. Thank you.” Kit says. She gives Tina a hug before she leaves.

“So guys, are you finished yet? Ready for dessert?” Tina asks.

“Yeah.” Both replies.

“Okay, good, come on. Let’s go. We’ll stop on the way back home.” Tina says. She stands and lifts Angelica out of the chair. She carries her out to the car and helps both into their seats.

They stopped at a ice cream shop near home. And brought it back home and then they took a seat at the kitchen table and finishes the dessert. Tina looked at the clock, only two hours till Bette calls, she thinks and smiles.
