Sweet Mischief’s Rollercoaster Romance

Back in the car, Leo drove down the mountain.

and drop it off."

Arriving downtown, the couple picked up a bottle of mouthwash. Anya squatted by the curb, rinsing her mouth to feel better. As they passed a breakfast diner, they decided to grab a meal. "We don't have time to get the book now. I'll head home at lunch to pick it up for you "No need to go back and forth, Chad. It's too much trouble; I can just share with a classmate," Anya said as their breakfast arrived.

"So, if you're too busy to pick me up tonight, I'll just take a cab home, okay?"

Leo nodded. "If I can't make it, I'll text you. If you don't hear from me, wait for me at school."

Anya nodded obediently.

Mrs. Cedillo had also been dropped off at school early, dozing off in the car. Andre, in high spirits, dropped his wife off at the entrance of the teaching building and watched her sleep. When it was five minutes before her class started, he gently woke her up. Mia rushed out of the car, barely having time to be annoyed with her husband, and hurried into the classroom. Watching her hurried figure, Andre's lips curled into a satisfied smile.

Henry, left at home the day before to keep his grandfather company, found a new use for the stroller his daughter had bought. Pushing it along meant he didn't need his cane, and he didn't feel tired no matter how long he walked.

He strolled around the yard, checked out the pond, played with the fountain, looked for fish in the quiet lake without success, and then went to the garden to cultivate his grandson's sensibilities.

Henry, in the car, swung his legs and squinted in the sunlight, his tender skin glowing adorably under the sun's rays. Since he learned to sit, Henry had liberated many an arm.

"Hoo hoo haa mmm," Henry suddenly started babbling again for no apparent reason.

Hansen encouraged, "Say 'Grandpa.""

"Ahh."

Hansen gave up on the lesson.

Leo went to the office early, still feeling tired, and made himself a cup of coffee. When his secretary offered to make it for him, Leo declined, "I'll do it myself from now on."

Molly always seemed tired at work, yawning constantly. At lunch, she couldn't be bothered to go eat, choosing instead to head straight to the CEO's office upstairs. Upon entering, she didn't say a word before flopping onto her mother's couch. "Mom, whatever you're eating, I'll have the same. Don't call me; I need to sleep."
