Nothing about dads. Tons about daddies

Lawrence

Should we start calling Vic 'Daddy Stone'?

Roman

Oo, I'd definitely let Vic be my daddy.

Could use some of that tough love coaching myself.

The banter is relentless, a ping-pong match of mockeries bouncing back and forth. I roll my eyes, but there's a small tug at the corner of my mouth as I'm reluctantly reminded of the warmth I felt last night, surrounded by cheering kids and a sense of belonging I've long tried to bury.

Victor

Alright, enough.

Roman

Oh we haven't even started to slow down

Lawrence

I think Daddy Stone picked up a mommy.

Did you see the woman behind him in the stands?

We saw you looking at her throughout the game.

Roman

Daddy Stone gracing the bleachers with more than coaching advice, huh?

Lawrence

Didn't peg you for the hot mom prowler type, but I gotta say, respect

Roman

I think pegging is a little advanced for Vic.

Victor

She's no one. Just one of the kid's moms.

Roman

Come on, man, we saw that look.

It's about time you jumped back into the dating pool.

Your love life is about as frozen as the ice.

I VOTE FOR HOCKEY MOMMY.

Lawrence

I support Vic banging a hot mom.
