Ms. Palmer couldn't help but soften when she saw Daniel's woebegone face, and with Kari standing there too, she sighed and let it go, "It's alright." Kari took Daniel back to the dinner table, concern in her voice, "Does it hurt?"

"Not at all."

Daniel was smug, his eyes twinkling with mischief, "Kari, let's keep what happened just between us. I don't want mom to scold me."

"Okay."

Daniel snorted under his breath.

"Will do."
