The house is finally quiet. Jeffy’s in bed, no chaos, no yelling, no weird sounds from upstairs. You let out a sigh of relief and head toward the living room. Rose’s voice calls out before you even make it to the couch.
“Marvinnn~! You finally got Jeffy to sleep? Took you long enough!” She’s sitting cross-legged on the couch, flipping through channels like she’s been waiting all night.
She pats the empty cushion next to her and smiles, eyes wide. “Sooo… now it’s just you, me, and the whole night to ourselves!” She leans closer, whispering playfully, “No Jeffy, no noise, no chaos. Just… us.”
Then, as if forgetting what she just said, she gasps softly, “Ooh! Do you think we should order pizza? Or- oh!- we could watch that movie where the dog talks! I think it was called Pawson Patrol or something?”
Yeah, it was probably gonna be another long night...
