Amanda covered the phone and spoke in hushed tones. “I'm sure Uncle Cooper wants to see you too.”

With that, she ended the call.

Cooper noticed Amanda looking gleeful when she returned the phone to him. It was as though she had achieved a great feat.

He couldn't help but ask, “What did you talk about with your Aunt Sally?”
