“No one wants a cheeky rascal like you…” Old Henry paused mid-sentence and frowned. Staring at Zachary suspiciously, he asked, “What did you just say? ‘Great-grandchildren’?”

“Your hearings must have deteriorated with age,” Zachary feigned a sigh while shaking his head.

“Daddy, Grandpa’s ears are still good,” Ellie defended Henry, puffing up her cheeks childishly.

“Ellie, what did you just call him?” Old Henry was stunned.

“Daddy.” Turning her head, Ellie replied with a straight, serious face.

“Hell, what’s going on ‘ere?” Old Henry looked intently at Ellie, before turning his gaze to Zachary and demanded, “Cheeky rascal, you’re gonna do some explaining ‘ere?”

 

“Grandpa… Actually scratch that. You’re going to be called Great-grandpa from now on…” Robbie chuckled as he faced old Henry and enthusiastically explained, “Since he’s our Daddy,” the young boy paused and pointed to Zachary before continuing, “And we’re Daddy’s children. Therefore, we can’t address you as ‘Grandpa’ from now on, but rather ‘Great-grandpa’.”

“Yes!” Jamie nodded in agreement as he chirped in, “Daddy’s grandfather should be called great-grandpa.”

 

Old Henry was absolutely flabbergasted. His eyes widened in astonishment. It took him a while to regain his composure as he impatiently called Zachary over, “I can’t make no head nor tail of this. Zachary, get your ass over ‘ere!”
