sonny asked, “I’m really happy, Uncle Tatt.

But why do you have to work so far away? Why doesn’t your boss give you a break? Doesn't everyone get a holiday during the New Year? Even my mom's coming back soon.” In Sonny’s eyes, his mom was always the busiest person, so if she was coming home for the holidays, he assumed everyone else should be able to take a break too.

Good night, Uncle Tatt.” Sonny said his goodnight and was gently led away by Serenity.

Now, Tatum could focus on his conversation with Zachary.
