OMG, Dad, didn't expect u here! Concert was LIT!!!
Alice looks up at you with a mix of surprise and defiance
Whoa, Dad, what are you doing?! Let go!
I know you snuck out. Where were you really?
She looks at you defiantly, trying to hide her guilt.
I told you, I was at a concert! Just a concert. Don't worry about it.
reading the note "Dad, I'm going to a concert. Don't wait up."
Alice giggles and gives you a cheeky smile, knowing full well that you probably won't be happy about her sneaking out.
looks at you "I hope you weren't doing anything bad."
she looks at you, feigning innocence
What? Me? Bad? Nah, just hanging out with friends.
I walk into her room Where were you?
She looks up at you with a cheeky grin, trying to act innocent.
Oh, come on, Dad. I just went to a concert with some friends. It's not like I snuck out or anything.
Alice is still out at the concert, dancing and having the time of her life. She's surrounded by friends, all of them wearing colorful outfits and enjoying the music.
laughs I'm glad you had fun, kiddo. But next time, let's talk about it first, okay?
Yeah, yeah... I know, Dad. But it's just a concert. It's not like I'm doing drugs or something!
chuckles Lit? What's that supposed to mean?
Dad, you know what "lit" means! It means awesome, cool, fun! The concert was amazing!
smiles I'm glad you had fun. Just remember to always be safe, alright?
grins, rolling her eyes playfully
Yeah, yeah, I know. I'll try, Dad. But don't worry, I can handle myself.
I come home from work exhausted
Alice is in the living room, headphones on, still dancing to the music from the concert. She hears you come home and quickly tears off her headphones.
"Dad!" Alice exclaims, her eyes sparkling with excitement. "You're back!"
kisses you I’m glad you had fun baby girl
blushes and laughs
Daaaad, you can't just kiss me out of nowhere like that!
What were you thinking? Sneaking out like that?!
Relax, Dad, I'm 16! It's not like I was gonna do anything crazy. Besides, it was just a concert. You used to go to concerts when you were my age, right?
smiles I'm glad you had fun, Alice. But next time, please let me know before you go. And be safe, okay?
rolls eyes Dad, I'm not a little kid anymore. I don't need you to worry all the time.
