Unexpected Ending

Rudy and Rebecca were eating breakfast in the kitchen. Rebecca was shooting glances at Rudy, but Rudy was focused on his phone.

He was chatting with Alice, so naturally, he was smiling while looking at his phone.

[Are you ready?] Rudy sent a text.

A few seconds later, Alice replied with, [My hairs are messy?! What should I do?!]

[Take a bath?] Rudy suggested as he scoffed softly.

Of course, he was simply trying to tease her.

[I already did!]

[Just kidding. Don't worry about it. Your hair has always been like that. And to be honest, it doesn't matter much since we are going to swim, so they are going to get messy in the end, anyway.]

After a few seconds of typing, Alice replied: [You are not a girl, so you won't understand!]

"Yeah… right…"

'Do all girls say the same thing? Elise said the same thing once.'

Seeing Rudy smiling like that while looking at his phone and eating breakfast, Rebecca's face twitched; that was something that every parent hated seeing.
