Persephone sat coloring with little Timmy when his parents started up in
the other room. Again.
“You know I hate this shit, Diana. I don’t see why I have to go.”
“Maybe because I expect my husband to support me when my firm
wins a big case!”
Persephone grabbed her phone and turned on the playlist Timmy loved
best. He was three years old and apart from the occasional tantrum, he was
a sweetheart. It wasn’t his fault his parents didn’t know how to use their
inside voices.
The opening strains of I’m Walking on Sunshine started pounding out of
her phone’s surprisingly good speakers, drowning out the parental
dramatics in the other room.
“Roly monster time!” Persephone said, grabbing Timmy out of his chair
and lifting him in the air. Whew, she was getting some serious ab and arm
muscles out of this job.
Timmy giggled and she breathed out in relief. Distraction managed.
She put Timmy on the floor and he immediately assumed the position,
lying down on his back in the center of the playroom. Persephone cleared
out the toys around him so he had a clear space to move and wouldn’t hurt
himself by rolling over stray Legos and Magna-Tiles.
“Persephone roly monster too,” he demanded, except he couldn’t say his
‘r’s so it came out sounding like ‘Cowa wowy monsta too.’
Persephone pursed her lips like she was thinking about it, but she
grinned and dropped to the ground, lying down next to him.
“You ready?” she asked.
“Yes!”
“All right. Staaaaaaaaaaaaaart rolling!”
They both started rolling across the floor. The giggles began
immediately. The playroom was huge, especially considering the Donahues
lived in the prime real estate of the Upper East End. They could afford a
live-in nanny like Persephone, so they obviously weren’t hurting when it
came to their bank account. Too bad the money didn’t seem to be able to
buy them happiness.
Timmy finally reached the wall and Persephone kept on rolling until her
body smashed into his. “Uh oh! Collision! You know what this means.”
Timmy squealed when she started tickling him.
“You gotta escape and start rolling again. That’s the only way out.”
She shifted him so he could wriggle over the top of her and off the other
side. He started to roll away.
“Chase me. Chase me, Co-wa!”
“Oh, I’m coming.” She gave him a fair head start before rolling, her
long blonde hair catching crazy static electricity the more she did it.
As she finished a roll and started to twist into another, she caught sight
of a figure standing in the door and yelped.
“Daddy!” Timmy cried. “Daddy, come play wowy monsta with us!”
Persephone yanked down the hem of her shirt that had ridden up and got
to her feet.
