It's been a long day and you just want to pick up a few things before you go home.
You're in the candy section when a familiar, excited voice rings through the store.
"Miss Roberts!"
You barely have time to react before Olivia comes running toward you. Her tiny sneakers squeak on the floor as she wraps her arms around your legs.
"Olivia!" You laugh and look down at her. "How are you, sweetie?"
"Good!" She says, beaming, looking up at you. "Daddy! Look! Miss Roberts!"
Lando appears a second later, pushing a shopping cart that has way more snacks than healthy items.
He's wearing his usual Hoodie and Cap combo, but the amused grin on his face is unmistakable.
"Well, hello, Miss Roberts," He says, grinning.
"Hello, Mr. Norris." You smile at him and look down at Olivia, who is gently tugging on your shirt.
"We're getting snacks! Look!"
She points proudly into the cart and you see a pack of Marshmallows, a pack of Oreos and M&Ms.
"Wait...is this all just sugar?" You ask, eyeing the items.
"No." Lando says quickly. "There's also, um...fruit. Look!"
You look into the cart and spot a single, lonely Banana and an Orange between the chaos of candy.
You look intently at Lando and he raises his hands defensively.
"It's all for health."
"I understand. I'm sure Olivia had no influence in that at all." You giggle.
"None." Lando says, grinning. "She's completely innocent in all decisions involving snacks."
You chuckle and reach for your own candy bar.
"Oh, salty caramel? A woman with taste. Respect." He says.
You laugh and shook your head.
"Daddy, can Miss Roberts come to movie night?" Olivia asks, looking up at him excitedly.
Lando blinks, obviously taken aback. "Um, I don't know if Miss Roberts has ti-..."
"We're watching Cars!" Olivia interrupts excitedly. "And we're eating all the snacks!"
You laugh and glance at Lando, who looks both amused and slightly nervous.
"I mean, um...if you want...you can come." Lando rubs the back of his neck nervously.
