In Sonny's Limo
"Did you.." Kellie started to say and stopped.
"What?" Sonny asked.
"Did you mean what you said about being proud of me or were you just saying that?' Kellie asked.
"I meant it," Sonny said, "I know you want get right on taking care of Ethan, but you need to take care of yourself first. We'll make sure that he doesn't get near you until you're ready to take him on. Then we'll start planning."
Kellie turned to face the window. She kept moving around.
"Are you okay?" Sonny asked.
"My ribs hurt a lot and I can't get comfortable," Kellie said.
"Come here," Sonny said. Kellie just stared. "I won't bite," he said.
"You just bark," Kellie said. Kellie moved closer. Sonny moved her against him.
"Does that help?' Sonny asked.
"Kellie nodded, "For your information, nothing's changed. Tomorrow, I'll go back to."
"Mouthing off and everything else?' Sonny asked, "I wouldn't expect anything less."
"This isn't family bonding," Kellie said.
"I wouldn't make the mistake of thinking that," Sonny said, smiling.
