Butch is busy building a cupboard that will soon house a variety of baby clothes for two 1-year-olds and a new-born whilst Wisdom, now heavily pregnant is applying the rest of the wallpaper to the rest of the bare wall. Wisdom turns her head, smiling at her handyman husband assembling the cupboard with relative ease as she runs a comforting hand over her baby bump.
(Wisdom): I can’t believe we’re going to be parents soon…
Butch stops his work for a moment and cranes his neck to see the broad smile on his wife’s face and he climbs to his feet, walking over to her. He places his hand on top of Wisdom’s on her pregnant tummy.
(Butch): It’s going to be amazing, babe. You sure you’re okay with this. With the twins, I mean?
(Wisdom): If it means making you happy and making us a proper family and for us to be left alone to live our own lives….then yes, I’m more than okay with it.
Butch runs his free hand through Wisdom’s golden locks, lighting massaging her scalp as he does so.
(Butch): Just think, only one more HWA appearance and we can finally call it quits, for definite this time, no more funny business, no more one-last-times.
(Wisdom): Promise? I know some part of that lion heart of yours won’t ever be happy unless you’re slamming someone through the mat with Rampant Lion.
Butch smiles despite himself.
(Butch): Promise. That part of my life is over, you and the kids are my world now and nothing will ever change that.
Wisdom smiles warmly at the sincerity of Butch’s words until the smile is replaced by a slightly more serious expression.
(Wisdom): I just can’t help but have a feeling something bad is going to happen. Senester must have something up his sleeve.
(Butch): I know. I’ve had our legal team scour the contract I signed at the hearing with a fine tooth comb a million times. It’s iron clad. I make 3 Havoc appearances and the twins are ours. There’s no small print or hidden clause, nothing. If there are consequences, I’ll face them and I’ll take responsibility for what will happen but I promise you, at the end of the road, everything will be fine and we’ll be proper happy family, the five of us.
(Wisdom): We better, or I’ll kick your ass, Mr Parker. Just because I’ve got this bump, doesn’t mean I’ve lost my edge!
Wisdom grins fiendishly at Butch who smiles back at her, giving her a long kiss on the lips.
(Butch): Oh, I know, believe me, I know!
Butch and Wisdom embrace once again, happy in the bliss at the thought of the good times to come as a family as the scene fades to black
