Feel free to stop by the old house for a gof backgammon, and if you ever need anything, you know where to find me.
As for today's game, I was careless. Next time, I won't make it so easy for you to win!" Harlee immediately stood, smiling and nodding.
"Sure." Content, Nathaniel turned toward the door. Just as he reached the door of the study, he stopped and looked back at Rhys.

"Got it." Harlee and Rhys saw Nathaniel off.
Before Nathaniel got into the car, a playful glint sparkled in his eyes.
He decided to regain sof the dignity he had lost in the earlier exchange at Rhys' expense.
Leaning close to Harlee, he whispered with a sly grin, "Harlee, I have videos and pictures of Rhys insisting on wearing dresses to school when he was little. Next tyou visit, I'll secretly show you." Harlee stifled a laugh, her eyes twinkling.
"Alright," she whispered back.
Standing nearby with a scowl, Rhys couldn't help himself.

"Is that true? You insisted on wearing dresses to school?" Rhys grabbed her hand gently, catching her playfulness.
"If you really want to seein dresses, I don't mind alluring you with a bit of my charm.” Harlee's eyes sparkled with mischief as she wrapped her arms around his waist, raising an eyebrow.

"That's a special perk for my wife only.
For now, you'll have to settle for my childhood antics." Harlee leaned into his embrace, gazing up at him with a smile.
"Showonce I marry you."
"Alright, you can do whatever you wish withwhen that tcomes," Rhys replied, his chin resting softly on Harlee's head.
