***Monday***
The boys were dropped off at school and after a brief conversation with Michael, William was off to work. He had a pretty slow day at the office and was able to go pick Mathew up on time.
Mi: Can you please take Jake with you because I was just informed of an important meeting now and there is no way that I can get out of it.
W: Sure, you've helped me a ton already.
Mi: But you still owe me?
W: Definitely.
Mi: Thanks, I need to go now.
W: Okay, see you later, let's go Matty.
M: Bye teacher, see you later.
Mi: Bye Mathew and thank you again William.
W: You've done it for me too, now go before you're late.
Mi: See you guys later.
W: Let's go get your brother and Jake.
Mi: Can we go get ice-cream afterwards?
W: Nope, we're going to my office... (He was cut off)
Mi: Nooo, daddy.
W: Let me finish, we're going to my office to pick up some of my files and then we're going out for lunch.
M: And then ice-cream?
W: Maybe, no come. (He said lowering his hands to pick Mathew up)
M: I can walk by myself daddy.
W: Okay, big man.
...
W: Come on boys, let's go.
J: Where's my daddy, Uncle William?
W: He had an important meeting that he could not miss so you're going home with us and he is going to pick you up there later.
J: Okay.
M: But daddy said no ice-cream. (He said sadly)
C: Why?
W: Because you are going to eat lunch.
C: But... (He was cut off)
W: No buts come one.
William went to his office first and the boys sat outside harassing his assistant with questions about her job.
W: Boys stop harassing Lydia.
C: We're not harassing her daddy.
J: Yeah, we're just talking to her.
W: Lydia? (He smiled)
L: It's okay, they're not bothering me.
W: Okay, say goodbye so that we can leave.
J: Bye Miss Lydia.
C: Bye Miss Lydia.
M: Bye bye Miss Lydia. (He said giving her a hug)
L: Goodbye boys, enjoy your afternoon and you too sir.
W: Goodbye Lydia, enjoy your day and remember... (He was cut off)
L: I know call if something important happens.
W: Thanks. (He smiled walking away from the boys)
Lydia watched as the group got into the elevator before going back to her own work.
~~~At William's House~~~
They went over to McDonalds and bought lunch for themselves before going home. They sat at the table and had lunch.
