An hour passed after our shopping excursion, and I sat in my recliner again waiting for my turn. Alfred is once again playing the PS4, this time playing Mortal Kombat 11 story mode. He wanted me to play with him so we can beat it together. I had nothing better to do so I agreed. After Chapter 3, it'll be my turn.

Ivan was petting Charley as she lay asleep on his lap. Pierre, Gilbird, and Toro also were sleeping, but on their beds. Lastly, Antonio, Francis, and Gilbert were in the dining room, whispering amongst themselves. The "sneaking out" portion of the manual is still fresh in my mind.

Their whisperings were light, but I caught some glimpses of their plan,

First, it was Gilbert, "Und so machen wir es!"
(And that's how we gonna do it!)

Then Francis, "Aussi bon que ce plan puisse paraître, à quelle heure devrions-nous le faire?"
(As good as this plan sounds, what time should we do this?)

Finally Toni, "Creo que alrededor de las 2 o 3. Nos dará tiempo para llegar y disfrutar de la fiesta."
(I think around 2 or 3. It'll give us time to get there and enjoy the party.)

Fiesta?

What party? When did they get invited to a party?

"Hey, Andy?"

I turn to Alfred, "Yeah?"

"What's for dinner?"

"Да, I am a bit famished.", Ivan added.

"Well, I don't know. Any suggestions?"

"Hamburgers with Fries!!!"

"Borscht."

"Paella."

"Quiche au Saumon et Crevettes."
(Salmon and Shrimp Quiche)

"Kochklopse."
(Boiled Meatballs)

"Okay, many different cultural suggestions tonight.", I clapped my hands. "How about this! We can order pizza and we have a cultural cook-out tomorrow."

"Not a bad idea.", Antonio praised.

The others agreed wholeheartedly. Dinner's been covered so now I need to find something for us to do. My thought paused as "Best Friend" by Saweetie ft. Doja Cat plays. Why is Daphne calling me? I thought as I answered the call.

"S'up Daffy.", I greeted. "How's your vacation?"

"I HATE TRENT SO MUCH!", Daphne shrieks into the phone.

"Without the shouting please ma'am."

"Sorry! I-I-", she huffs. It took a minute or two for her to calm down; but when she did, her response was something I expected.

"Well you know, how we book this trip for us right? Like for the two of us."

I look at the TV as Daphne begins her rant, once again I know that they'll end up fighting on the trip. It's always the same issue:


1) Trent bribes Daffy with a false promise of faithfulness. The problem usually is about him stepping out.

2) Daffy falls for this. Her naive attitude always lets her see the good in people.  

3) I try to convince her that he isn't going to change.

4) Daffy tells me to stop being negative and believes in his promise.

5) I'm right and she becomes upset. An upcoming rant and/or her coming to stay with me for a few hours. The next day they're back together.
