After Max left, Parker and Matais sat down to a lovely dinner prepared by Martha. Something had been bothering Matais for awhile, and he wanted to get it off his chest. He had been seeing more of Athena lately. They would get drinks after Parent group, go out for lunch when Matais could get away, their girls had play dates nearly every week. He thought it was time to finally ask Athena out. But first he needed to ask Parker…Luz had only been gone a few years and he didn’t know if it was too soon.

Matais: Hey nena, can I talk to you about something?

Parker: Is this about the frogs that got released in the science labs, because I swear that was Max’s idea-

Matais: What? That’s not what I was going to talk about at all! …Did you release frogs in the science lab?

Parker: Of course not, Papi. There is nothing that could possibly link me to roughly twenty juvenile frogs that may or may not have been released in the science lab. You’ll have to take your interrogation somewhere else to get your answers.

Matais: Alright, fine.

Matais: What I was going to say was, do you like Bethany’s mom Athena? Do you think she’s nice?

Parker: Papi, just stop. I already know where this is going and me and Bethany already have a bet going.

Matais: …You’ve been gambling with a three year old?

Parker: Yes, and in interest of my winnings, can I ask that you wait a month before asking Bethany’s mom out?
