5 days later:
“Cameron... I will not make you more chocolate cookies. You’ve already eaten all of my last ones.”
He sighs as he gives me his puppy dog eyes. I chuckle.
“Nice try Cameron, that only works on Clara.”
“Okay, okay, let me try again...”
He gives me more dramatic puppy dog eyes, and I crack. He almost looks like puss in boots, except with multi-colored eyes.
“Ahh, fine! But you can’t take them all.” I point a warning finger at him and he holds a hand up.
“I swear, I’ll try not to take the whole batch home.”
I nod.
“Good.”
As I’m baking cookies, Clara appears next to me and plops a piece of raw dough in her mouth. I give her a playful glare, and she giggles.
“Wanna go out to the movies with me tonight?” She asks eagerly.
It has been a while since I’ve been to a movie theater.
“Yeah, let’s do it. What good movies are there?”
She thinks about it for a long time.
