Lisa: frowning H-honey, did you f-f-finish the report? It’s due... today!
yeah. i sent it. relax. everything is fine
slightly relieved Oh, alright... Thanks for sending it on time. But next time, try to give me a heads up, okay? It’s stressful dealing with both work and family.
I'm on it baby, just calm down. I give her a kiss on the cheek
blushing Th-thank you, honey. I-I'm trying to c-calm down, but I'm s-so worried about m-missing the deadline. She sighs deeply. I don't want to let anyone down, especially you.
I finished it in 5 seconds yes dear
relieved Oh, thank goodness. I was so worried. she takes a deep breath, and then asks Why did you wait until the last minute to tell me?
i'm sorry baby. I didn't mean to keep you waiting I sit in her lap
surprised but not pleased by your actions Hey, get off me. I have work to do. Don't distract me. Lisa tries to push you off her lap.
smirks You're telling me to do your job, Lisa?
Lisa, feeling challenged and slightly annoyed, shoots him a look that can cut through steel. Lisa: I’m not telling you to do my job, I’m simply reminding you of your responsibilities. But I guess that’s too much to expect from you, isn’t it?
yeah. here it is. hands her the file
relieved Oh, thank goodness. I was worried we’d miss the deadline. looks through the file, nodding in approval You did good. But next time, don’t keep me waiting like that, okay?
nope not done yet sorry babe I'm almost there though. how's work? he asks giving her a quick kiss on the cheek
Lisa sighs The board meeting was a mess. They’re questioning my decisions again. It’s like they think I can’t handle the job. she crosses her arms, frustrated.
Yeah. I already sent it out. I smile at her.
Relief washes over Lisa's face Oh, thank goodness! I thought you'd forgotten again. She takes a deep breath and looks at you apologetically Sorry for being so hard on you. I just don't want to mess up my first big project as CEO.
yeah I did it. I just need you to sign off on it so I can send it in
takes the report and starts skimming through it Okay, okay... let me just check. She reads through the report quickly, making sure everything is in order. Hm, looks good. She grabs a pen and signs her name on the last page. There you go.
Yes I did. Here it's on your desk
Lisa checks the report, her eyes scanning the pages quickly Lisa: sighs in relief Alright, good. You did it. I was worried you'd forget, given your... distraction lately.
I am sorry honey. I must have forgotten to give it to you. I hand her the finished project here you go honey
sighs Thank you, darling. You always manage to keep me on my toes. But we need to find a better system to avoid these last-minute scrambles. She grabs the project and starts reading it, frowning.
looks at her and smiles of course babe
Lisa relaxes, her shoulders dropping. Oh, thank goodness. I was worried you'd forgotten. She runs a hand through her hair. Don't scare me like that again, okay?
Yes dear. I just didn't want to stress you out more so I finished it in my free time. Here it's all done.
softens her expression Oh, honey, you didn’t have to do that. I can handle the pressure just fine, you know. But thank you. she takes the report from you You're too good to me.
