It was a quiet afternoon—too quiet. The kids had gathered in secret, whispering and plotting their “biggest mission ever.” They had no idea their plan would backfire spectacularly and leave their parents scrambling to figure out what on earth had just happened.

1. The Mission Briefing 📋
Park gathered the squad inside the playroom, glancing around suspiciously. "Okay, Operation Midnight Snack is a go."
Finn leaned closer, eyes sparkling. "What’s the target?"
Park grinned. "The secret stash of cookies Mom and Dad hide in the kitchen."
"You mean the cookies?" Ethan whispered in awe.
"Exactly," Park confirmed. "We’ve been deprived long enough."
May raised her hand. "What’s the escape plan?"
Nara smirked. "Easy. If they catch us, we blame it on the baby monitor glitch."
Minn nodded seriously. "And say we were just sleepwalking."

2. The Execution Begins 🕵️♀️
The kids tiptoed through the house like tiny ninjas, with Park leading the way.
"Shh! Stay low," Finn whispered dramatically, army-crawling across the floor.
"I feel like a spy!" Minn whispered, suppressing a giggle.
Aiden accidentally knocked over a lamp, and everyone froze.
"Abort!" May hissed.
"It’s fine," Nara whispered. "We move forward—like professionals."
The team continued until they reached the forbidden kitchen cabinet where the cookies lived.
Ethan pulled out a plastic spoon, tapping it like a drumroll. "This... is the moment of truth."

3. The Cookie Heist Gone Wrong 🍪
Park climbed on Finn’s shoulders to reach the cabinet. "Almost… there..."
Just as Park grabbed the cookie jar, disaster struck—his foot slipped, and both he and Finn toppled over.
CRASH! The cookie jar shattered on the floor.
Haru gasped. "Mission failure!"
Nara tried to scoop up cookies from the shards. "Don’t let them see the evidence!"
Finn winced, rubbing his head. "This was not part of the plan."
Minn tried to grab a cookie. "At least save one for the cause!"

4. Parental Alert: The Parents Intervene 🚨
The crash echoed through the house, sending all the parents running to the kitchen.
"What on earth...?" Joong started, staring at the shattered jar.
Dunk folded his arms. "Anyone want to explain?"
"Sleepwalking!" Minn blurted out, raising her hand. "It’s a medical condition."
Phuwin squatted down, trying not to laugh. "Sleepwalking? Really?"
May nodded seriously. "We thought we heard... um... intruders!"
Boun raised an eyebrow. "And you decided to fight them with cookies?"
Park gave his best innocent grin. "We were hungry. It’s a defense mechanism."

5. The Kids Try to Talk Their Way Out 🗣️
Hana stepped forward, arms crossed. "We were just testing... home security."
Nara nodded quickly. "It’s an experiment. We learned that cookie jars are fragile."
Mix bit his lip, trying to hold back laughter. "Well, I can’t argue with that logic."
Leo added, "And now you know—you can’t leave cookies lying around in dangerous spots!"
Pond leaned against the counter, grinning. "You guys really thought this would work, huh?"
Ethan shrugged. "It worked... until the crash."

6. The Parents' Verdict ⚖️
"You’re all grounded from cookies for a week," Joong declared, though his voice was laced with amusement.
"A week?!" Park gasped dramatically, clutching his chest like he’d been mortally wounded.
Gemini laughed. "It’s not the end of the world."
"Feels like it," Finn muttered.
Phuwin shook his head, ruffling Park’s hair. "Next time, just ask."
"But that’s not as fun," Haru pointed out, earning giggles from the rest of the kids.

7. The Aftermath 🍽️
The parents cleaned up the mess while the kids sat together, plotting their next move.
"Okay, so cookies are off the table," Nara whispered.
"How about... Operation Midnight Ice Cream?" Aiden suggested with a grin.
Finn grinned mischievously. "Let’s wait until they fall asleep this time."
May leaned in. "And no dropping anything!"
Meanwhile, the parents sat in the living room, already suspicious of the quiet kids.
"Think they’ll try again?" Dunk asked, amused.
"Definitely," Pond replied, grinning.
"Should we stop them?" Boun asked.
Phuwin chuckled. "Nah. Let them try. It’s kind of entertaining."
