Ethan Herd rolled his eyes, "Stop going on about that. If you're able, go eat one yourself, then. As soon as you dare, I'll strip down and get ready."
Ethan said to Mrs. Herd, "Mom, you should go in and rest. You said you weren't feeling well."
Mrs. Herd looked at Scarlett Glenn, still feeling uneasy. She grabbed Ethan's arm, "No...how about, I borrow you tonight too?"
Scarlett Glenn found Mrs. Herd adorable. She had never seen anyone her age who could remain so innocent. She smiled and shook her head at Mrs. Herd, "Aunt, I'm afraid it's impossible. There are some things two women just can't do."
Mrs. Herd's face turned red immediately, "You..."
Ethan put his arm around Mrs. Herd's shoulder, suppressing laughter, "Mom, you should go in. If anyone has to eat anything, it's going to be me with her, right!"
Mrs. Herd was somewhat skeptical, "Can you...handle it?"
