“Ev!” he piped up, already picking himself up from the couch, the baby still safe and sound in his arms.
“Ev, holy shi- Holy HECK, Ev, PEACH IS TALKING!” he claimed, rushing to the part of the house his sibling was currently situated.
“Ev! Peach said ‘Connor’! I heard it, she said ‘Connor’, I’m telling you!!“
