About 15 minutes later, Carlotta walked in Strawberry's front door.642Please respect copyright.PENANAXP5UU2mURn

"Okay, what happened with Muffins?"
"He decided to wait ten years to tell me that he hooked up with Strudel after your wedding" Strawberry said, with tears in her eyes.
"Are you fucking serious?" Carlotta sat down on the couch. "That's disgusting. Strudel is so cringe"
"It's whatever" Strawberry said. "But like, he just decided to keep it a fucking secret for ten years until Doreen and Fiona brought it up"
"You and Muffins literally never fight" Carlotta said. "He practically worships the ground you walk on. It had to have been pretty bad for him to actually leave"
"He didn't kiss me, he hasn't texted me, he's just gone" Strawberry cried. "He's probably going to file for divorce"
"I guarantee you he won't" Carlotta said. "You have that dude wrapped around tour finger. Just give him some space and he will come back. And can I tell you something?"
"What?" Strawberry asked blankly.
"Seeing Honky tonight was a real eye opener" Carlotta said.
"Why?" Strawberry asked.
"Did you ever notice that Michael and Michelle look like they could pass as twins, but not McKayla?" Carlotta asked.
"No, not really" Strawberry said.
"When I saw Honky today, I saw McKayla in his eyes" Carlotta said. "I mean, maybe I'm crazy, but-"
"Are you saying you think Honky is McKayla's father?" Strawberry interrupted.
"I mean, it's definitely possible" Carlotta said. "I just never had any doubts about her being Mango's until I saw Honky tonight"
"Have you told Honky?" Strawberry asked.
"Not yet" Carlotta said. "I'm having lunch with him tomorrow, though"642Please respect copyright.PENANARpOFixtM5o

Meanwhile, Muffins had arrived at Stitch and Pixie's. The three of them were sitting in the living room.
"You sure you wanna spend your only kid free night here, man?" Stitch asked. "Pixie's mom put the kids to bed before we got home, but Jackson is definitely gonna wake you up at 7am when he sees you on the couch"
"I'll deal with it" Muffins said. "Strawberry was just being so extra, I couldn't deal"
"Strawberry is always extra" Stitch said. "What did you expect? And what were you guys even fighting about? You never fight"
Muffins sighed. "You know that comment Doreen and Fiona made at the reunion? About me and Strudel?"642Please respect copyright.PENANAHdJSF80bmn

"Well, I'll just come out and say it, because this is a repressed memory, and I never wanna discuss it again after this" Muffins said. "Strudel and I fooled around. We were super drunk, I regret it, I'd like to completely forget it. Strawberry is mad that I never told her, she's over reacting, wouldn't stop bringing it back up, I can't deal"642Please respect copyright.PENANAmE7WMYh7Ug

"I even took her car when I left, and left my own keys there" Muffins said. "I knew she had to be due for an oil change by now, and I was right. Her husband owns an automotive clinic and she still doesn't keep up with oil changes"642Please respect copyright.PENANA31HlNdbafC

"Muffins, I'm just trying to help" Pixie frowned. "You fucked her head up 12 years ago, and she never recovered. Now she's already used to you spoiling her. So of course if you just walk out, she's gonna feel some type of way. So now you need to go above and beyond to prove you aren't going to leave her. Unless you want to, that is"642Please respect copyright.PENANABXvziB3cQq

Muffins read the text out loud. "Hi, Sweetheart. I'm so sorry for both not telling you my secret, and also for storming out like I did. I have your car, I'm taking it to the garage tomorrow to do your oil change. I sent both you and Pixie some money, take my car, my keys are on the counter. Go get your hair and nails done, and lunch tomorrow on me. I'll get the kids, and we will be home in the evening. I love you so much"
