"Here you go, can't leave you out of this," Andrew chuckled, shaking his head. He wondered how he ended up with such a cheeky little troublemaker in his family.
Just then, Harold ambled down the stairs, putting on an exaggerated frown. "Andrew, Damita, I've got a complaint!" he declared. "Sophie’s been slacking off—she just woke up from a nap!"
Sophie shot Harold a glare. "Whose side are you on, Harold?"
"Definitely not yours!" he retorted.
"You!"
Damita interjected gently, "Alright, alright, aren’t you both a bit too old for this bickering? You've been at each other’s throats since you were kids, and nothing's changed!"
"Well, she’s not exactly the sharpest tool in the shed! Andrew's so bright, but she didn’t get any of that."
"What did you just say?! You're the one who's slow!"
"I was talking about you!"
"No, you! You're the dim one!"
"You're dim!"
"You're dim!"
As Harold and Sophie continued their playful squabble, the four adults couldn't help but shake their heads and chuckle. Those two must have been rivals in a past life.
Jeremy smiled, "Mark, how about letting Sophie stay with us for a few days after her coming-of-age celebration today? They've just finished their exams and both got into Eastwood College. They could use some solid coaching."
Andrew nodded, "Sounds like a plan, Mark. The kids should stay with you and learn a lot."
"I don't want to!"
"Me neither!"
Their joint protest instantly shifted the mood. They'd rather endure military training than be under Old Man Mark's watchful eye!
