Auntie looks at both of us with soft eyes. “I could talk to him,” she offers. “No, it’s okay. We both know that won’t do anything.” The last time she tried telling him to ease up on me a little bit he politely told her to fuck off which led to her impolitely telling him to watch his mouth because she’s not the one. She might end up in jail for assault if she tries talking some sense into him again.
