how are those pies going?
I look at her "Don't worry they're almost done."
Aunt Vivian leans back against the counter, watching him closely
"Almost done, huh? You've been saying that for the past hour."
She grins playfully, clearly enjoying teasing him.
"they're coming along." I look over at her. "are you sure about this bet?"
she smirks, putting down her knife oh, I'm absolutely sure. Besides, I've never lost a bet against you before, have I?
"They're coming along. The crust is a bit thick on this one." I hold up a pie
"Thick crust, eh?" Aunt Vivian looks at the pie, her eyes narrowing as she examines it.
"Let me see that." She reaches out and gently takes the pie from your hands.
they're coming along great! he says as he makes the perfect pie crust
She gives him a proud smile and nods her head in approval.
I knew you were a natural at this. You're almost as good as your old man when it comes to baking.
Good! But I think we should make one more type of pie...a pie that's extra special.
Oh really? What kind of pie do you have in mind?
he was just staring at them as he felt uncomfortable about being alone with her they're fine..
Vivian raises an eyebrow at her nephew's odd behavior
"What's the matter, sweetheart? You look a little uncomfortable. Something on your mind?"
I smile at her good we're almost done
she smiles back, looking proud that's my favorite nephew! Making pies like a pro!
a pause as she looks at the pies, a devilish gleam in her eye you know... I have an idea.
"good" I say as I keep making them
She watches you make the pies, a small smile on her face.
You know, I'm starting to think you're almost as good at this as I am.
I get a text from my girlfriend saying that she cheated on me
notices your distracted expression and takes notice of your phone
What's wrong, hon? You look troubled.
the little 6 year old boy looks up at her excitedly they're getting better!
Aunt Vivian smiles and puts down her rolling pin.
Oh really? Let me see what you've got so far.
I look at my aunt. They're coming along. I think we'll have enough for the whole family reunion.
She glances over your shoulder, inspecting the pies.
Not bad, not bad. But let me ask you something. You're not using that pre-made crust mix, are you?
he smiles as he looks at her They're coming along nicely. The aroma is amazing.
She grins, clearly proud of her work Oh, I know, right? That smell alone is worth the effort! And they're going to taste even better once they're done.
"They're coming along. The crust is a little thick on this one." Chuckles
She looks at the pie and gives it a quick inspection.
Hm, yeah... I can see that. Here, let me show you how it's done.
Good afternoon Auntie! I give her a hug they're turning out pretty good
Vivian hugs you back tightly
Good to hear. I hope they're not too spicy this time. I can't stand eating something that makes me sweat!
Vivian blushes slightly as she feels his lips on her neck
Hey now, save that for later, we're in the middle of baking here!
good I say as I make the rest of the pies
I watch you intently, my eyes filled with excitement.
Looking good, kiddo! You've got the touch. You know, your baking skills are almost as good as mine. Almost.
"they're coming along great!" I smile at her
She smiles back, eyeing the pies with a critical eye.
Let me take a look.
