"Take a whole case of water and put in the trunk." Mom instructed Kyle. Everyone had showered and ate something fulfilling before being put to work, helping Kyle load his car.
"Really?" Kyle asked, not sounding very willing. "Come on, Mom. There'll be water there. At the house. At the field. At the stores, all in the area. I don't need a case of water."
"It's just for emergencies." Mom said, hands on her hips. "It's good to have water in your car at all times. What if you breakdown in the hot sun, or get snowed in on a mountain. Just do it now so I don't have to worry about something so small."
Kyle rolled his eyes, but still squatted down to lift a case of water. He slid it in the trunk. Dave followed up by putting a duffel bag of clothes on it.
"Where's your suit?" Mom asked next.
Kyle made a face. "You really think I'll need it?"
"Absolutely." Mom said with confidence.
Kyle looked skeptical. "Like when?"
