chapter 3 part 9

Diego, seated comfortably at his second hand desk in his cozy little workspace, decided to write his first novel.

Attack of the Nipplebacks, a riveting tale of biting titty monsters will arrive on shelves to haunt your dreams in the near future!

The broken gnome judges Benita’s efforts at gardening. She must be a nincompoop, she broke his precious head off, after all. How are the damn plants still blooming? Well, at least a few looked like common weeds, so she was probably still failing.

“One two three, one two three,” Benita huffed as she stretched. She felt like an idiot as it was and when she heard the door open, she didn’t turn around. She didn’t want to see her mate laughing at her whalish attempts to exercise.

“Babe, I’m home!” Leo hung up his keys and doffed his shoes by the door. Someone would probably trip on them later. He could hear the sound of the peppy work out routine, saying with so much cheerfulness it hurt, Come on girls, you can do it! he wondered if his wife had fallen asleep on the couch with the tv still on, probably in a hot sauce induced coma. “Sweetheart?” he walked into the living room and did a double take. “What are you doing?”

“Keeping,” huff huff, “Active!” 

“Well…. yes but isn’t that a bit much? You might hurt the baby….”

“The books say,” huff huff, “It helps with the labor,” huff huff, “if you don’t become a beached whale.”

Leonardo took this in, then went upstairs without another comment. Benita wondered for a moment if she’d upset him, but then he came back down in a t-shirt and shorts, joining her in her attempt to stretch and move. 

She looked at him for a moment, then laughed. “It’s a good thing you’re cute, because you’re nuts.”
