“What do you mean ‘we?'” Roo replied.
“There’s cat hair everywhere,” I said, picking at a couple stray hairs on my pants, “When was the last time we vacuumed?”
“You mean when was the last time I vacuumed?
“I vacuum!”
“You’ve never vacuumed. Or take out the trash.”
“I do! And…I thought you liked to do those things.”
“Really?”
I laughed, unable to keep a straight face. “We need to vacuum.”
The kitchen timer went off before Roo could reply.
“What are you baking?”
“You mean, what are we baking?” I said, removing the granola bars from the oven; the smell of toasted almonds, coconut and cherries filling the apartment.
I could hear Roo getting up from the couch. “Granola bars?” he asked, as he shuffled in behind me.
“For school. And that little girl who takes away your cookies.”
“E,” Roo smiled, “And she asks.”
He tore off a corner piece, batting the hot crumble between his hands a few times before popping it into his mouth. “You know what?”
“What?”
“We need to make more of these.”
