Aster squawked in one of the little cries that foretold an incoming tantrum. Theo clutched the remote control tighter.
I do get the sense that Theo doesn’t like that Aster is getting all the attention.
He felt a throbbing pain where the corners of the remote bit into the heels of his hands.
Ouch. You should probably try to relax, or you’ll end up having to get up to change channels for a while, if your TV even has that functionality.
“Oh, don’t cry, don’t cry!”
Theo seems like the type to suppress any crying he would’ve done. Then again, she’s not actually talking to Theo.
