"Yay! I have a perfect one too already!" MABSOOT exclaimed. "Manny! Get it? Cauze it zoundz perfect with manikin? Or mannequin? Or... Mannikinnn?" MABSOOT smiled at her own geniuses and wiggled her eyebrows. Lightly nudging his arm with her elbow. The manikin thought about it. Testing the name out in his head.
"Manny?" He asked himself. "Manny." He confirmed it with a firm head nod. MABSOOT's smile grew larger as her black lips showed the shine of her white sharp teeth. "Hello Mizter Manny! I am Mizz MAB!" MABSOOT raised her hand up high in the air above his head. Manny slowly raised his hand up, not really knowing where she was going with this weird hand position. MABSOOT slapped it. "Yeah!" She exclaimed. "Oh, that waz what humanz call a high five. It'z when two people zlap each other'z handz in the air with all five fingerz when they greet each other. I think only people with five fingerz can do it." MABSOOT told him when she saw how he still had his hand up in the air.
"You need a bath." She blurted. "You're dirty and ruining the only good furniture I now have. You too young man!" She said when looking down at Bruno. He tilted his head, one of his ears flopping over. "Daw." She cooed. MABSOOT stood up and placed Bruno down so she can point at the couch. Manny looked at his hands before gawking at the couch's surface. The surface of the couch was smeared with from the blood and mud that caked his palms. "Come, come." MABSOOT instructed as she walked upstairs where Bruno had laid down at the bottom step. Manny followed behind her, walking over Bruno's resting body. MABSOOT stopped at the wet puddle she abandoned the other day. "Oooh yeeeah. That... Dirty ztuff. Ew. To the backyard we go!" MABSOOT said as she walked past Manny. He stopped at the puddle sitting at his feet.
"It's still here?" He asked himself. He thought MABSOOT would have cleaned it up by now. Bits of water and spider guts flew along the wall when he stomped on it. He splashed on it again. And again. He was starting to grow fond of it. Before he could make another splash, he was grabbed by the arm and pulled away. "Bitch, ztop playing in that crap! You're dirty az it iz!" MABSOOT cried. Sticking her tongue out in disgust as she pushed him in front of her. Leading him downstairs to the backyard. "Why are we heading to the back?" Manny thought. "Ztand right there." MABSOOT pointed at the wall on the right side of the house. Manny walked right to it as told. "Okay, now ztand like the letter T. Armz out!" She said as she spread out her arms. Manny obeyed. Seeing her pick up a green snake, MABSOOT pointed its head in his direction. Before Manny could wonder why she was holding a snake, its venom shot out and sprayed at him with a strong force.
"Ztay ztill!" MABSOOT demanded. Aiming the head of the snake at his "face". Manny flinched without reason. He did not feel it but seeing it coming directly at him made him jerk. MABSOOT told him to turn around so she could spray his back. As she sprayed him down, she hummed softly to herself like she was peacefully watering a garden. It took a moment for Manny to catch onto the fact that MABSOOT was spraying over his butt for an oddly long period of time. "Aaand done!" MABSOOT said as she turned the snake off. Manny was soaking wet, but clean. "Zee? Look how ztrong the water flowz out of thiz hoze! . . . Hoez? No, hoze... Hoooze. Male humanz zeem to like 'em. They talk about 'em a lot." MABSOOT noted. "Okay Bruno!" She sang as she quickly picked up the dark hound before he could flee. Bruno grunted, kicking all four legs in attempt to abscond. In great desperation to escape, he banged the back of his head into MABSOOT's snout.
"Ow! Dumbazz! Ztop that you lil'azzhole!" She shouted. "Hold thiz piece of zhit for me." She said as she shoved Bruno in Manny's arms. Bruno still not ceasing his squirming. MABSOOT picked up the hose again and turned back around. Pointing its head at the two. Bruno tried to wiggle out of Manny's grip one final time before finally realizing it was too late. Fate already being sealed as he looked down the tunnel of the hose. Manny patted him twice on the head before they were both shot at with cold water. After a minute or two, MABSOOT turned off it off again.
