Second Big Cousin

Well. At least Richard no longer had to worry about when he might bump into Marcus. The man decided to take that matter into his own hand. 

"Aww is this our baby cousin? I remember seeing him once before. I don't remember him looking this cute and innocent, though." Marcus strolled into the room as though he owned the place. His eyes fixed on Samuel as though he were surveying a new toy. 

"Marcus. You're not supposed to be here right now." The words came out through clenched teeth. This was Jovani's idea of taking care of him. Surely not. 

"Rich. I think that you best mind your own business. You didn't come and see me before now. I think that leaves you outside of the realm of being able to tell me what to do." The words came out in a simple, slow, passive voice. Anyone who didn't know him wouldn't have thought much about it. Not Richard, though. He could read the threat from the other's tone loud and clear.
