Sea Life check up - Bubble

" Have you found her?!" Rumi asked, looking under the pillows.

" No! I haven't even figured out how to turn the light on!" Lloyd replied, haphazardly pressing random buttons.

Rumi sighed. " Lloyd, have you ever tried the... Oh, I don't know.... Yellow one?"

" There's a yellow button?!"

Lloyd looked around and found the yellow button.

" Oh." He pressed it, and..... Nothing happened!

He pressed it again, confused.

Nothing.

" This isn't working!" He cried.

Rumi sighed and switched the power on.
" Try now." She said, crossing her arms.

Lloyd obeyed, and the light switched on.

" Oh." He looked up, sheepishly. " Whoops."

" Now will you help me with finding Bubble?"

Lloyd nodded and took out a lasso. " Yep!"

Rumi saw. " What and how and why are you carrying a lasso?!"

" To lasso Bubble. Duh." Lloyd looked at her as if it was the best idea ever.

Rumi slapped her head.

Clearly, her boyfriend had no idea what he was talking about.

Or what he was doing.

" No! You can't just lasso Bubble up!"

" Why not?"

Rumi sighed, slapping her head.

" Because she doesn't like the lasso?"

Lloyd nodded and put the lasso away, looking around the room with newfound determination. "Alright, let's find Bubble the proper way."

As they started searching, Lloyd's clumsiness took center stage. He bumped into a chair, sending it toppling over with a loud crash. "Whoops! Sorry about that."

Rumi sighed, shaking her head. "Just be careful, Lloyd."

Lloyd gave a sheepish grin and continued his search. He moved to the dresser, opening each drawer with exaggerated care. As he reached the top drawer, he yanked it open too hard, causing it to fly out and its contents to scatter across the floor. "Oops! My bad!"

Rumi couldn't help but laugh. "Lloyd, you're a disaster."

Lloyd chuckled nervously. "I know, I know. But I'm trying!"

He moved to the closet next, opening the door cautiously. As he did, a pile of clothes and boxes came tumbling down on him, burying him under a heap of fabric and clutter. "Rumi, a little help here?"

Rumi rushed over, pulling clothes off Lloyd and freeing him from the pile. "How did you manage to make such a mess?"

Lloyd shrugged, blushing. "It's a talent, I guess."

They continued their search, and Lloyd, trying to be helpful, decided to check under the bed. As he bent down, his foot slipped on a stray sock, sending him sprawling across the floor. "Ahhh!"

Rumi burst into laughter, tears streaming down her face. "Lloyd, you're hopeless!"

Lloyd, lying flat on the floor, looked up and chuckled. "Well, at least I'm entertaining."

Just then, a soft squeak caught their attention. Bubble peeked out from behind a stack of pillows, her eyes wide and curious.

"Found her!" Lloyd exclaimed, scrambling to his feet.
