"I was just spitballing with Abigail and Langston's nicknames back then, now that they're growing up, it's tfor a change! I've named them once, this time, it's your turn." "The one who went through hell to bring them into this world was you. You're the only one who has the right to nthem." Dorothy sighed, "Since when are there so many rules?" "I want you to decide." Since he had already declined twice, Dorothy didn't push it further. She thought about it for a moment, then smiled, "Alright then." "See, as long as you're okay with it," Everett had no objections, "And they can keep the Sanchez surnif you want, don't worry about anything else." The Lopez clan, he could handle. To be precise, he didn't need to explain anything to his parents. A change is a change.

I don't want Abigail and Langston to have to explain this stuff later on. Let's go by the book." Everett turned and gave her an indulgent smile, "Alright, your wish is my command." She leaned her head against the car window, racking her brain.
"How about Aurora Lopez for Abigail?" "That works." Everett nodded, and Abigail immediately chimed in, "I love it! Mommy, I wanna be Aurora!" Dorothy then turned her gaze to Langston.
Knowing Langston wasn't as easy to persuade as Abigail, she directly said, "How about you pick a nfor yourself?" "I don't know what I want to be called, but I know what I don't want to be called." Dorothy sent a pleading look towards Everett. He raised his eyebrows and spoke softly, "Helabout Miles Lopez?" S "Why didn't I think of that?" Dorothy clapped her hands excitedly, seeking approval from her son.
Langston furrowed his brows, pondered for a moment, and finally nodded.
"I'm good with that." "Then it's settled! I'm going to text Karen right away, she'll be thrilled." Dorothy didn't waste a moment, pulling out her phone to chat with Karen.
Everett watched her, his lips curving into a smile. He adored this version of Dorothy. Happy and vibrant.
