"Waiting on her throughout her stay in Baltimore is a great sacrifice, I must say," commended Kathleen with a mock sincerity.
The corners of her mouth lifted in a mischievous smirk. "You are still very smart after so many years, Shawny." She had deliberately used the appellation "Shawny" knowing fully well that he hated being called that.
