The woman walks into a living room with a man, and two children. The girl child turns her head towards the woman and smiles.

"Mom's home!!!!" The girl child yells and jumps off the couch.

The child embraces the woman, who in return picks her up. The child looks to be about six years old and is wearing a simple white t-shirt with black yoga pants. The man walks over to the woman and kisses her cheek, she smiles back at him. The boy child runs up from behind the man and hugs the woman's leg. The boy looks to be about five years old and is wearing a black long sleeve shirt with blue jeans.

"Nice to see you" says the man to the woman.

"It's nice to see you too and the kids of course" says the woman smiling at the children.

"Well, it's diner time and we are all hungry" says the man "right kids."

"Yes, we are hungry" says the two children together.

"Lets eat!" Says the woman walking towards the kitchen.

The woman tucks the children into their beds, kisses them goodnight, then closes the door behind her. She walks to her and her husband's room. The man is lying in bed watching TV when the woman walks in. The bedroom is fair in size with a queen bed in the middle with a red cover and white sheets, a TV set a cross from the bed, an on suit bathroom, two nightstands on each side of the bed with a lamp and alarm clock on both of the nightstands. The walls of the bedroom are a fair brown with white trim, and full on beige carpet for the floor.

"The kids asleep?" Asked the man.

"Probably not" says the woman as she heads to their on suit bathroom.

The woman takes a quick shower then changes into pyjamas and crawls in bed next to the man.

"How was work?" Asked the man turning off the TV.

"It was alright" says the woman "I almost got seen though."

"I thought you were the best of the best" says the man turning over to the woman.

"Even the best make mistakes" says the woman staring at the ceiling.

"True enough" says the man turning off his lamp.

The woman also turns off her lamp, takes off her ring and sets it on the nightstand and rolls over to face away from the man. They lie their facing away from each other in silence.

"And Crystal" says the man, breaking the silence "be careful at work tomorrow. I have no intent to plan a funeral."

"Yes Derek, of course I will be careful" says the woman reassuring the man.
