"Let's make a bet, she's not as cute as you imagined. Let's say 2/10." A young boy who seems to be seven years old.
"I know for sure that Uncle Mat won't settle for an ugly woman. I bet 7/10." Another young boy chirped in, they looked so much alike, undoubtedly twins.
"So, how much are we getting or what's the reward?" They continued deliberately between themselves while their mother and grandparents anticipated Mateo's arrival.
"$150!" The first one said quickly.
"You better pay if you lose." The other rolled his eyes sarcastically.
"John and Jones, your uncle is here." Their mother's loud voice disrupted their childish conversation.
Mateo and Anastasia locked arms as they approached the people waiting for them with smiles on their faces.
"Mother. Father. Good evening." Mateo greeted his parents with a short bow.
"Good evening, to you Ma'am and Sir." Anastasia followed suit and they nodded approvingly.
