Jason leaned in, his face inches from hers, but Estrella was quick to pinch his jaw. “Jason,” she chided, her tone teasing yet firm, “you’re getting shameless by the minute.”

Seeing this, Kristin looked at him with a serious expression and said, “Son, you better start raking in the dough to support Estrella and my future grandchild.”

Estrella glanced back to see Jason still nursing his cheek and let out a chuckle. “Goodbye, Jason. Don’t bother seeing me off.”

After exchanging goodbyes, Kristin linked arms with Estrella, her face blooming like spring flowers. “Estrella, I saw some adorable cribs and baby clothes last time I was out. I’ll take you to check them out.”
