Owen closed Keiavan in a one armed hug. He set the canister of peanuts on the ground long enough to help free the child from his tie and help him out of his coat. Owen tossed the clothing over the arm of the couch and worked to roll up Keiavan’s sleeves to his elbows. “That’s better isn’t it.” He muttered as he released the top button of Kei’s shirt. “Now you can breathe.” He smiled at the boy and rose again. “Do you want something to eat?”
Owen put his hand on the back of Kei’s shoulder and led him into the kitchen. Julianna had stocked the fridge with snacks for the child when he visited. Owen loaded Keiavan up with two Capri sun drinks and a package of Goldfish. “Go share with Rose.” He instructed the boy before returning to the living room.
When he returned, Owen had the peanuts, a fresh beer for himself, and a glass of white wine. He placed the wine in front of Julianna and lowered himself into the chair next to the couch. Lounging with his head propped on his hand, Owen fed himself nuts one-by-one and watched Aphrodite’s hands in Julianna’s hair. He seemed mesmerized by the action.

Holland nudged Aphrodite’s arm and gestured at Owen and Keiavan with a look that said ‘I told ya so.’ His brows rose and he pursed his lips at the wink that passed for a greeting from Julianna. “Hello Julianna. Nice to see you.” He said toasting her with his mostly empty beer bottle.
A gracious smile crossed his face when she complimented his daughter. “She’s three.”
Rose looked over at the group, her eyes passing over each adult’s face as she knew they were talking about her. Deciding it didn’t bother her, she plopped back down with her coloring book and went back to scribbling since her new friend had now been commandeered by the tall blonde man.
Holland frowned at the too tranquil Owen. He leaned down and surveyed Julianna pointedly. “I noticed you don’t wear much jewelry.” His eyes flashed to Owen who looked somewhat mortified before the expression was policed. “No rings or anything really.” Holland leaned back and mirrored Owen’s posture, resting his arm on the back of the couch behind Aphrodite’s shoulder. Resting his head in his hand, he gazed victoriously at Owen who was left to hope no one picked up on the pointed questioning.
A strange observation from Holland. Perhaps it would pass for Holland being weird. Because he was weird. He was really doing it to embarrass Owen who had yet to gift a certain engagement ring to a certain woman. Call it payback for behaving poorly.
Bitch, I'm limited edition.
