Nathaniel Nathan's expression finally softened. "So, you're worried about me?"
Vera Xavier nodded quickly. A smile touched Nathaniel Nathan's lips as he said softly, "Don't worry. I know what I'm doing."

Vera Xavier gave a slight nod, then looked at Nathaniel Nathan, her eyes sparkling. "It's so boring this late at night. Why don't we do something meaningful?"
Nathaniel Nathan almost choked on his own saliva when he heard that. 'When did my wife get so wild?'
