"Whoa!" Heidi said as I made the right turn to go home. "I thought we were going straight to the movies!"
"But we have some groceries that should be refrigerated," I told her.
She shook her head. "Lucy is not going to like that!" she replied.
"We have enough time to take her out for a quick little walk," I said, but she was unconvinced. Still, we had our tickets and we had our groceries, so we followed my plan.
As we shut the door behind us to go to the movie, a muffled howl rose up. "Is that our dog?" Heidi asked wide-eyed. Another soulful bay confirmed that it was. "That hurts my heart," she said as we dashed to the car.
On the way to the theater Heidi was pensive. "I hope she doesn't do anything destructive," she said more to herself than me.
After the movie we opened the door, unsure of what would await us. A small mangled heap of cardboard and plastic was on the living room floor, but everything else seemed intact. "What is it?" I asked.
"The toothbrush I just bought," Heidi answered.
Hm. I guess Lucy showed us!
