“You’re welcome.” Stealing one more kiss as I tightened my hold on him, I nibbled and deepened it just enough to brush my tongue against his. When he moaned, I pulled back and grinned. “Thank you for my kiss.”

Milo nodded, already looking more innocent. “Daddy likes kisses.”

“That’s right. So I’m going to get lots once we get home.” We just needed to figure out which home that would be.

So maybe there were a few more details besides just keeping him that we needed to work out.

Chapter 11

Milo

“Clothes just get dirty.” I shrugged. “I…I can do it?”

Probably.

Daddy’s washing machine had a lot of buttons.

“Do you know how to do it?” He was pushing the buttons but he was frowning. “Does your helper do it?”

Daddy finally laughed and shook his head. “I’m not incompetent. This is new. I think Grace has only used it once too.”

Oh.

“It’s like a spaceship. Those have lots of buttons too.”

Daddy nodded. “I agree and the next time an appliance breaks I’m going to be the one to replace it. I think we were scammed because there is no way all this is necessary.”

Yep.

“The machines at the laundromat don’t have all these buttons.” But I liked not having to use all my quarters, so I was going to be patient. “Thank you for helping me.”

Daddy leaned over and kissed my head. “You’re welcome. Okay, I think this is the regular cycle.”

It started.

He did it.

I got to keep my quarters and I didn’t have to be nice to the cranky man.

“Now…now do we get to play?” Daddy hadn’t minded the laundry problem or that I’d eaten a sandwich for my dinner but we hadn’t gotten to play yet.

“How about we play in the tub?” Daddy kissed my nose when I pouted. “You’ve been yawning since we got home.”

Aww.

“But…but…” Shoot. He was right. “I’m not tired.”

Daddy nodded and was really smart again. “I know. But your brain just probably needs to relax. You did a lot of thinking and working today.”

“Yeah…it’s…two-job day is hard.” Ugh. Another one. “I like…I like them, though. They’re better than when I had three jobs because they were mean.”

And stupid but that was rude.

“How many two-job days do you have each week?” Daddy took my hand and led me out of the laundry room and through the house. “You were busy today.”

“Yeah and…and it was restocking day at my first job. That’s bigger hard.” Because some people didn’t know their ABCs and kept putting stuff in the wrong order.

Yep, they were stupid…but they were nice, so I ABC’d for them.
