The next day afternoon...

"Okay, if I get this, Dawne is gonna do the dishes until the end of this year.", Alexandra said.

Dawne laughed at her, "You can't get it, love."

Olee clapped his hands, encouraging her. Alexandra focused with full concentration to throw the little fur ball into the basket on the wall. She threw it and the ball fell right through the basket, surprising herself and Dawne. Olee made a few cheering sound as she got the shot finally after missing a few times in their game.

Alexandra turned to Dawne, folding her hands upto her chest, smirking proudly. Dawne looked between her and the ball, stunned that she has actually got it.

"You are on the dishes duty for the rest of the year, mister.", she pointed out, laughing back at him.

"Alright, my turn.", Dawne picked the next ball, "If I get this, Alexandra will let me drive her car for the rest of the year."

"What? No!!", she denied but Dawne already through the ball without even looking at the basket and he got the shot perfectly.

"If you disagree with this, I'm going to have to disagree with me doing the dishes.", Dawne raised an eyebrow convincingly.

"Fine!", she rolled her eyes, "But you're not driving without me and beyond the speed limit."

"Agreed, darling.", Dawne kissed her cheek, so happy that he finally got to drive her car.

"Olee, your turn.", she said.

Olee signed: If I get this, I want a remote control helicopter.

"No. You already have enough toys. Look around. Half of the house is just dumped with your toys.", Dawne scolded him so Olee pleadingly looked at Alexandra.

"What did he say?", she asked, cracking up a little.

"He says he wants a remote control helicopter."

"Sure, Olee.", she instantly agreed, "I will get you one tomorrow."

Dawne scoffed, "You just bought him an RC car yesterday. And another new toy already. You are spoiling him too much, Xandra."

"So what? I'm spoiling you too. You never complain about that.", she quipped back playfully and took a ball for Olee from the floor, "Here you go, buddy."

Olee took the little ball in his hand and aimed at the basket. With his little mighty strength, he threw the ball and it hit right at the rim of the basket and fell down.

"Awww....", she said as he didn't get the shot and turned to him.

His shoulders slumped down and he cooed sadly.

"See, even the ball was agreeing with me.", Dawne remarked.

"It's okay, sweetie. I'm still gonna get you that helicopter for you.", she assured, instantly bringing the light back on Olee's face.

"Hey, this is unfair. He didn't get the shot. We are supposed to play by the rules.", Dawne complained, folding his arms with a huff.

"That's ironic coming from you, rule breaker.", she winked back at him.

Dawne couldn't help but smile defeatedly and he said, "Alright, I'm done. This game is boring. Let's play another game."

Alexandra tilted her head questioningly and said, "You are the one who came up with this idea."

"And now I have changed my mind on that.", he said, sitting on the couch like a pissed off teenager.

She chuckled, shaking her head at his childish temper. She sat on his lap, putting her legs either side of his and faced him.
