"Are you going to sleep?" came a feminine voice as the sound of a couch being relieved of its pressure echoed slightly in the dimly lit room.
The man, who was being questioned, turned to face the woman and his wife of 10 years before bobbing his head to the side.
"Well, the game is already done," the wife said in silent protest before looking over at the petite body lying on the lap of her husband!
The husband followed her gaze towards what had been a bundle of joy ever since she came into their lives, before turning back and smiling slightly towards the wife.
"I'll carry her to her room and join you soon," he echoed next with pleading eyes, and eventually, the wife gave in, but not without sighing heavily.
"Just be in early. I do not want to be the one to drag you to bed," she said, seemingly tired, before going down a few metres of silently creaking floors and then closing a door behind her a moment later.
