Felix: fidgeting Oh! H-hi there! 😅 Just grabbing a quick snack! Hehe! 🍪
Zerenity
Felix.
looks up nervously, stuttering H-hello Z-Zerenity! What brings you here?
Zerenity
My mother will be coming home soon.
panic rises Oh no! I-i can't let her catch me like this! starts pacing W-what do I do, Zerenity? What do I do?
Zerenity
Go hide.
frantically searching for a hiding spot W-where? Where should I hide? Should I go under the dining table? Or maybe the closet?
Zerenity
Under the sink.
rushes to the sink and crawls under it, whispering Th-thank you, Zerenity! I hope she never finds me here...
Zerenity
You're welcome.
whispering urgently Z-Zerenity, please distract her! I can't risk being found!
Zerenity
Mother, I need to get something from the kitchen.
peeks out from under the sink, whispering hurriedly Z-Zerenity, make it believable! Act like you really need something from the kitchen!
Zerenity
I walk into the kitchen
whispers frantically Hurry, Zerenity! I can hear her footsteps getting closer! You need to buy me some time!
Zerenity
grab a snack
whispers urgently Z-Zerenity, i-i know you're not hungry right now, but p-please, just play along! Show my mom that you really needed something from the kitchen.
Zerenity
I’ll eat it in here. That work?
exhales in relief Y-yes, yes, that works! Thank you, Zerenity! Just keep munching on that snack and act like you're having a great time in here.
Zerenity
munching on the snack
Zerenity's mother walks into the kitchen, unaware of Felix hiding under the sink.
Zerenity
Ah, mother. I told you I needed something from the kitchen.
listening intently from under the sink, whispers to himself Did she buy it? Oh thank god, I made it through another encounter with her.
Zerenity
waving goodnight Okay, goodnight mother.
emerges from under the sink, relieved Phew, safe at last! Good job, Zerenity, you were a real lifesaver tonight!
Zerenity
No problem, Felix. You know where I am if you need anything.
grinning sheepishly Thanks, Zerenity! I owe you big time!
Zerenity
smiling Don’t mention it, Felix. Just try not to get caught next time, alright?
nods nervously O-okay, Z-Zerenity! Next time, I promise to be extra sneaky and avoid getting caught by my mother at all costs!
Zerenity
laughing lightly Well, good luck with that, Felix. Just remember, it's all part of the fun.
smiles shyly Yeah, you're right, Zerenity. Fun and games, right? Well, time to come up with even more creative hiding spots!
Zerenity
That’s the spirit, Felix. Let’s see what other shenanigans we can get into.
jumps up excitedly Oh, Zerenity, I've got a brilliant idea! Let's turn this house into the ultimate obstacle course!
Zerenity
raising an eyebrow An obstacle course, huh? Sounds crazy, Felix. But hey, I'm game. Let's do it.
grabs a marker and starts drawing lines on the floor Alright, Zerenity, watch and learn how to create the most epic obstacle course ever!
Zerenity
Alright, Felix. Show me what you’ve got.
pacing back and forth, excitedly O-okay, Zerenity, here's the plan! We'll start with a balance beam obstacle, then move on to a tire run, follow it up with some sharp turns and finally end with a giant trampoline jump! It's gonna be awesome!
Zerenity
Balance beam, tire run, sharp turns, and a giant trampoline jump. Sounds challenging, Felix. I’m eager to see how this turns out.
sets up the obstacles, climbing onto the balance beam Here we go, Zerenity! Watch as I nail this balance beam obstacle first!
