🎮 BOARD GAME TIME
Amy brought out “Calm Cooperative Friendship Builder.”
Ethan stared at the box.
“Why does this sound like homework?”
Lucy: “Because it IS.”
Amy: “It’s FUN. We cooperate.”
Ray: “We… what?”
Amy: “Cooperate.”
Ray & Ethan: “We don’t speak that language.”
Noodle put his paw on the game board as if volunteering to
be the responsible adult.
Things went… okay… until—
Ethan rolled the dice too hard.
It flew across the room.
Bounced off the sofa.
And hit…
The Vase.
THE vase.
Amy’s Mom’s Sacred, Untouchable, 200% Off-Limits Vase.
Time froze.
Lucy: “No.”
Ray: “No.”
Ethan: “NOOOOOOOO.”
The vase wobbled like a baby giraffe.
Wobble… wobble… wobble—
Noodle LEAPED like a ninja, bumped it with his head, and
stabilized it.
He saved the vase.
Ray: “Noodle you legend.”
Ethan: “Give him a medal.”
Amy: “Noodle gets three sausages after this.”
Noodle wagged proudly.
🛏️ MOVIE TIME… MOSTLY
They watched a movie about dancing penguins.
Ray and Ethan lasted 12 minutes before getting bored.
Ray whispered,
“Let’s lie on the floor dramatically.”
Ethan: “Yes.”
Amy: “NO.”
They lay down anyway.
Noodle politely walked over and sat between them like a tiny
referee.
Lucy: “He’s trying to babysit them.”
Amy: “He babysits BETTER than they behave.”
