“Why would my opinion influence your casting decision?” Mitchel replied, genuinely confused.

Ariana’s laughter bubbled up. “Did you not catch Ripley's glances? Looks like Dr. Chadwick's fan club just gained a member. You never seem to lose your touch, do you?” A hint of amusement twinkled in Mitchel’s eyes. “Fan club? Since when did | have one?” Ariana smirked, ticking off on her fingers. “Well, there are the smitten nurses at the hospital, the eager junior researchers in your lab, and don’t forget the patients who always rave about the handsDr. Chadwick.” Mitchel, ever so unruffled, simply murmured an “Hmm” as he drove.

But at the next red light, he suddenly asked, “What about you?” Mitchel spoke with a depth of sincerity, and when he looked at Ariana, she could tell he truly meant every word.

Caught off guard by the sudden shift in conversation to her, Ariana laughed a little too nervously. “Well, | also can’t help but admire you, Dr. Chadwick. With your impressive medical track record, who wouldn't? Your skills and intelligence in the field are something else.” Wanting to change the subject, she said, “Things went off without a hitch today. The movie shoot was issue-free now.” They exchanged a few words, but then Ariana found herself distracted by the passing scene outside. A quiet settled between them. They both felt a bit awkward.

As the gates opened, the unmistakable sound of Melon's laughter filled the air.

Opening the door, Mitchel was greeted by the sight of Rodney, Melon, and Catalina, all engrossed in sfloor game. [x] Hearing them enter, they all looked up, each with a comical piece of paper stuck to their faces.

Rodney and Catalina were caught off guard by Mitchel and Ariana’s sudden arrival. Their smiles went stiff, and their laughter halted abruptly. Only Melon, unfazed and delighted, ran towards Ariana with papers stuck all over his face. “Mom!” he chirped. “We're playing!” Ariana couldn't help but grin, giving Melon's cheek a little squeeze before acknowledging the two adults with a nod.

Trying to appear unaffected, Catalina attempted to clear her throat and hold onto her usual cool exterior. But, catching sight of her paper-clad face in a mirror, she gave up and laughed. “Melon’s been such a bundle of joy.

He’s brought so much life to this place.” Ariana found it hard not to find Catalina charming; underneath that tough front was a genuinely warm soul. “I just hope he isn’t too much of a handful for you guys,” Ariana said.

Inviting her to take a seat, Rodney shifted the topic. “You were out of the hospital in no time. How's the injury?”
