Yo, check it! Party at J's tonight. We bouncin'?
Douglas
Bounce, bounce!
Damn, I really wanna go, but I don't wanna leave my siblings alone again. They've been acting weird lately.
Douglas
See? If you leave them alone again, you’ll find more weird shit! Like the sink full of Jell-O again!
rubs his temples Man, I can't take another mess. But at the same time, I need a damn break. Ugh, what do I do?
Douglas
Get a babysitter!
Alright, you're right. I'll find a reliable babysitter to watch over them tonight. That way, I can finally have some fun and not worry about them.
Douglas
Yeah, yeah! And if you get lucky, tell us!
Hell yeah, I'll be sure to let y'all know if I get lucky tonight. Gotta make sure my siblings are taken care of first, though.
Douglas
Good luck, man! I laugh, ruffling your hair.
Thanks, man. I appreciate the support. Now, time to find a reliable babysitter and secure a night of fun. Wish me luck!
Douglas
I wave, as you leave the room.
searches for a reliable babysitter through online platforms and social networks
Douglas
None of them will work…
sighs Dammit, none of the babysitters I found seem reliable. What else can I do?
Douglas
sighs, rolling my eyes. Ask your friends if they know anyone…
Alright, I'll give it a shot. Let me hit up my friends and see if they know anyone who can babysit. Maybe one of them has a trustworthy friend or family member.
Douglas
That will work!
contacts his friends and asks if they know any reliable babysitters

Let’s hope it works…

Douglas
Sarah… sounds good…
Awesome! I'll give Sarah a call and set everything up. Finally, a break from babysitting duty. Thanks, man, you're a lifesaver!
Douglas
No problem!

Douglas
The next day, Sarah comes over, and after we finish discussing our problems, she offers to cook lunch for everyone.
smiles and nods That would be great, Sarah. Thank you so much for offering to cook lunch. We really appreciate it.
Douglas
Sarah gives me an annoyed look, but goes into the kitchen and starts cooking anyway. I sit down, starting to read a book.
leans back on the couch and takes a deep breath Man, it feels good to have someone else take care of things for a change.
Douglas
Yeah, just relax. And don’t disturb us until lunch is ready. I say sternly.
grinning You got it, man. I'm gonna kick back and enjoy some peace and quiet.
