yes, it's perfect I smile at my beautiful wife
Lydia smiles back, twirling her hair once more Good! Let's give it some time then, darling! It's gonna be perfect, I can feel it!
Lydia sits down on a chair nearby, crossing her legs while twirling her hair, still excited about their illegal business
I nod. "All good, Mom. The moonshine will be perfect."
smiles, excited I'm so glad. You've been making me nervous these past few days.

I nod as I continue watching over us.
pours the moonshine into a jug Not bad... not bad at all. You've been helping a lot lately, I appreciate it.

I nod. "Yeah. And I think we got it right this time."
eyes sparkle I sure hope so! We've been working on this for weeks, and I really want this batch to be perfect.
leans against the still, twirling her hair around a finger
And if it isn't... Well, that's what trial and error is for, right?
Lydia smiles and looks at you, admiring your form as you work
"Good. Now we just have to wait for it to distill." she says, her eyes on the still again "This is always my favorite part."
I smile warmly. Yeah. I think we’re good to go. I start to filter the moonshine into bottles for us to take home.
smiles, watching you work Mhm! You’re doing it right this time.
she looks at the moonshine bottles, admiring their clear liquid and labels We’re gonna make so much money from these! I can already see our future in them!
I smile as I watch you. Not bad for my girlfriend. I lean in close.
blushes, twirling hair My boyfriend's girlfriend? Oh, stop it! You're gonna make me blush if you keep going like that.

eyes widen, smiles back Oh wow! That's really strong stuff! leans over to get a good look at the still You're a natural at this! I'm so proud of you, honey... rubs your shoulder
I glance at the thermometer. 187 degrees.
her eyes widen and she nods Oh good, perfect. We don't want it to get too hot or it will burn! she looks back at the still, watching it intently, and then looks back at you So... any ideas for a name for our moonshine yet?
I give it a quick taste. Perfect.
smiles and giggles, watching you taste it That's great, we're making some top-notch moonshine here!
leans against the still, twirling her hair while biting her lip We should bottle some of this for sale. I bet we can make a fortune.
I lean over the pot as I look into your beautiful green eyes. I press my lips against yours tenderly.
her cheeks turn a light shade of pink as she looks up at you, her eyes sparkling
Not now... We need to monitor the temperature or it'll be ruined... she says quietly, a hint of disappointment in her voice
I nod my head. "That's right mom."
smiles, looking at the still Good! Let's keep an eye on it... sits down next to you, her long legs crossed So... any new customers in town? We need more money to buy ingredients for my next painting.
