Playful Antics

My chariot raced home with my red treasure tucked safely in back. The jeep bumped into the driveway and skidded to a halt. I leaped and landed upon the driveway in my superhero pose only to see the great beast Cooper come racing around the house. I quickly laid the trap of burger on the ground, which distracted the beast, and continued on towards the dungeon house. His raunchy burp caused me to pause, knowing it foreshadowed the awful gas he’d have tonight. Undaunted, my mind made my body stop at the great door, which blocked my path towards the sanctuary of my room. My breath slowed. Peeking through the living room window; the T.V. was off. With fingers crossed and fervently praying dad was working in his study up-stairs or hopefully, (I prayed real hard on this one), that he was still sleeping off his Sake drunk from last night, I gently pulled back the screen door. Placing my key into the door lock; the key turned agonizingly slow, and with the stealth of a ninja, quietly pushed open the door. The screen door close slowly behind me until it latched and I didn’t bother closing the front door, since my objective was to reach the sanctity of my bedroom before arousing the denizens of the dungeon. The living room was empty. Having passed through the first obstacle, my feet carefully made their way across the threshold and out into the living room. Good, now just to get upstairs. Like a thief in the night, my stealthy journey across the living room to the stairs proceeded without so much as a squeak of the floor. My escape to my room to bury my treasure was almost assured and I was halfway to the stairs when a tank hit the door rattling the glass in the screen door.

“Honey, will you let Cooper in, please.” My father’s voice floated down from the second floor.

Closing my eyes and cursing under my breath, I let out a sigh of frustration. “Okay.”

Cooper was jumping up and down with excitement as I opened the door. He rushed in and sprinted for the kitchen. His water bowl sounded like a bell being rung for church as he drank. When I turned back around, Dad was standing at the bottom of the stairs looking at me with his usual ‘my daughter is mental if she thinks she can out smart me’ look accompanied by his silly grin.

He stepped off the bottom stair and casually strutted towards me with his best ‘I know what you are up to’ walk and stopped in front of me.

“Next time,” he started, “If you want to hide something from the old man, maybe you shouldn’t skid to a halt under his window.”

My whole demeanor deflated and I cursed myself for forgetting his study window overlooked the driveway.

“You got me, again.” I said sheepishly and hung my head in defeat. “Can’t out smart you, Dad.”

“Well, I am the best.” He flopped into his favorite chair swiveling around to face me.
