Forty-five. That’s forty-five smiles your brother’s made today, you note to yourself as he jokingly pretends to splash the contents of his mug on you! You <span class="mu-i">DO</span>, you giggle as you scoot away in your beach chair, you <span class="mu-i">TOTALLY</span> make a weird noise when you drink cocoa!
“Well maybe I do…” Shrugs Sue as he cautiously takes a sip from the steaming beverage in his hand, “but if we’re turning this into an ‘<span class="mu-i">embarrassment-off</span>’, well-”
<span class="mu-s">TRUCE,</span> okay?! <span class="mu-s">TRUCE!</span> Accepting your terms by playfully shoving your shoulder, your brother lets out a long, contented sigh as the two of you watch the sun slowly descend below the lake’s horizon. An icy breeze blows past the two of you into the woods, chilling you to the bone and prompting you to take a hearty swig of cocoa!
“So?” Sue asks as you nearly choke on the thick, but refreshingly toasty beverage, “What’s the verdict?”
Well, you huff, the marshmallows melted in, like, two seconds, you nearly choked on the Brahm Crackers, and there’s no booze in it…
“Hm… high praise coming from you.” He remarks as he takes another swig! Yea, well, you shrug, it’s keeping you <span class="mu-i">warm</span>, you guess…
“Yep, <span class="mu-g">CLEARWATER’S</span> got nothing on the Winters here…” Answers Sue as he leans back a bit in his chair. “It’s a good thing you guys came when you did–this whole thing’s gonna be ice and snow in a few weeks.”
Yea, you snort, he coulda told you it was gonna be <span class="mu-s">FREEZING.</span>
“You’re Stanley Parble, remember? You can handle a little <span class="mu-i">chill</span>.”
