Sebastian Lockwood bent down and put the screw cap, which Timmy Lockwood had been using as a toy, back in its proper place.
"Uncle, that was my mom on the phone just now, so..." Sydney Sawyer tried to explain what had happened.
"So you think being seen with me is something to be ashamed of?"
"No, absolutely not!"
Sydney Sawyer frantically shook her head.
"First 'Uncle,' then 'Dad.' What are you planning on calling me next?" Sebastian Lockwood's tone suggested he was onto something.
Sydney Sawyer instantly realized something was off. She froze for a few seconds, then her face suddenly turned beet red!
'He doesn't think I have some kind of special kink or fetish, does he?'
"Uncle, I actually..."
Sydney Sawyer wanted to explain, but she was worried that Sebastian Lockwood wasn't thinking that at all. 'Wouldn't that just expose my own wicked thoughts?'
"Hm?"
"N-nothing. Are you building a cat house? Do you need my help?" Sydney Sawyer hurriedly changed the subject.
