This morning, a play in one act

By Jason

[Athena wakes up late, and I'm in a hurry.]

Me: “Athena, do you want some toast?”
Athena: “Draw a doggie.”

Me: “Okay, but do you want some toast?”
Athena: “Draw a doggie.”

[Repeat 10x]

Me: “I will draw a doggie, but I need to know, do you want some toast?”
Athena: “Hmm…”
Me: “…”
Athena: “Draw a house.”

Me: “Athena, do you want toast, or no?”
Athena: “Draw a house, daddy.”

[I draw a house]
Me: “Okay, now, do you want daddy to make toast?”
Athena: “Draw a doggie.”

[10 minutes later, when we are running even later]
Athena: “Toast please. Strawberry please.”

[5 minutes later]
Toaster Oven: “Oh sorry, you wanted toast? I thought you requested a smoldering charcoal briquette. Again. Because toaster ovens are evil.”
