"No soup for you!" Jubilee cried out in protest. She maneuvered over to the coffee table with the baby on her hip. She picked up Mikey and stuck out her tongue at Rose. "That's no way to treat your turtle, Rose! How can I trust leaving Mikey in your hands?"
When Rose got out of the couch, she followed her back to the kitchen with Mikey and the baby in hands. She put Mikey down on the kitchen counter and made a little prayer that the man wouldn't augment her turtle and make it into soup. She giggled to the baby as Rose and the man started arguing yet again. "Aww, c'mon, people, don't fight! It's bad for the baby!"
She crinkled her nose and had to nod in agreement that milk wasn't the best beverage choice for Rose at the moment. She scooped the baby up to her shoulder and pat her back.
"So now that we're all here, will someone finally explain to me who's this guy and why's he here and what did the bad guys try to do with your baby?"
