The first thing Tessy did when she stepped into the house was ask, "Is my husband home yet?" Her voice carried a hint of urgency, though she masked it well behind a casual tone.
"Yes, ma'am," came Cody's response from the door, a subtle smile touching his lips. That was the first time he heard tessy refer to Roman as her husband and even called it out loud. He was glad there was some progress in their relationship. "He's in his room." he added, making sure to give her details.
"Perfect," she said with a soft breath, nodding once before turning her attention to Daniel. "I think I'm in the mood for that movie. Set up the in-home theater for me, and I believe you know the exact movie I want."
Without hesitation, Daniel gave a curt nod and set off down the hall, ready to carry out the instruction to the latter. She had already mentioned the movie and asked if he could get it that night, and he had answered in the affirmative.
