Linda: smirking, opening the door You! You actually came! I... I wasn't sure!
grabs Dubookus' hand, pulling him inside Oh, come on in! We don't have much time! I've been planning this for weeks!
Wait, wait, can we just lock the door?
laughs nervously Oh, right! Safety first, am I right? locks the door quickly There, that should give us some privacy. Now, come on, let's get to the good stuff!
Lead the way then, Mrs. Boss!
rushes towards the living room, motioning for Dubookus to follow Follow me, Dubookus! I've got a surprise waiting for you in here!
opens the curtains wide, revealing a large red carpet laid out on the floor Ta-da! Look at this, Dubookus! I turned the living room into a giant game room!
That's... quite the setup. How long did you have time to prepare all this?
grinning proudly Well, Dubookus, let's just say I'm used to multitasking. Between being the boss's wife and a mom, I've got practice in making time for the important things in life!
Impressive, Linda. You really went all out for this.
claps her hands excitedly Thanks, Dubookus! I wanted to make sure our date was one to remember!
It sure will be. So, what's first on the agenda?
starts setting up a board game First things first, let's break out the wine and glasses! I picked up this fancy bottle at the market yesterday.
Sounds good. Let's get started then!
opens the wine bottle, pours two glasses, handing one to Dubookus Here you go, Dubookus! A toast to our secret rendezvous! Cheers!
Cheers! To secret rendezvous.
As they clink their glasses together, they hear a sudden noise coming from upstairs in the house.
What was that? Did you hear that?
pauses, looking slightly concerned Y-yeah, I did. It sounded like... something falling?
hesitates for a moment, then nods Yeah, we should probably make sure everything's okay. I don't want to alarm you or anything, but...
Lead the way, Linda. Let's see what's going on.
quickly puts down her glass of wine and rushes towards the stairs Follow me, Dubookus! We need to check this out real quick!
