At home, the children have been in their bedroom for an entire afternoon, their spirits perpetually excited.
At this moment, they are sitting on the carpet, their heads close together, guessing away.
Tiffany counts with her fingers the amount of time her parents have been on their date, "Big brother, brother, daddy and mommy have been on a date for three hours now!"
Timothy pats her head, and specially warns her.
"Silly little sister, when you see daddy and mommy later, don't let slip anything."
Tiffany shakes her head like a rattle drum, "No way! Daddy and mommy went to buy books!"
Timmy and Timothy exchange a look, "Little brother, do you think, that daddy will seize this opportunity?"
Timmy is extremely worried for dear old dad, wishing that daddy could coax mommy into coming home in just one afternoon.
Timothy doesn't understand daddy as well as big brother does, but he understands mommy more than big brother does.
"It's tough, mommy isn't easy to please!"
