"I gots a new house to live in! We'll be living in a temple from now on!" I announced to my kids when I got home from my assassin job.
Scuppers glanced up from his homework.
"Why a temple?" he asked.
"Well it was cheap and keeping the temple prayer ground clean would be nice since we have a big family and all," I answered.
Jay came down the stairs carrying Angela.
"You just got bored of this place and probably wanted to move, huh?" Jay remarked as she stepped down from the last step and set down Angela.
"But I think going to live by a temple seems fun!" Angela said, happily, "Is Mommy going to be a priestess?"
"Well she could be since she's still pure and she isn't married," Scuppers replied thoughtfully.
"Are you, Mom?" Jay asked.
"Of course! Angela's smart isn't she~" I squealed, "I raised you kids well."
"Are you sure you don't want to get married, Mom? I mean, don't you want someone to help you with us?" Scuppers asked, "Like, you know, a father?"
"But with her attitude, she doesn't seem like she'll be dating anyone any time soon," Jay whispered to Scuppers and I fortunately didn't hear her.
Jay turned to me.
"But you're still young, Mom," she replied.
"Daijoubu~ Daijoubu~ It'll be fine. I don't intend to ever get married and falling in love isn't something I hoped for in my future," I said, waving it off, "Now pack up your stuff so we can get moving!"
Scuppers and Jay glanced at each other.
"Yaaaay~ We're going to live at a temple~" Angela sang as I picked her up and brought her to her room.
"Zelfine, Tomo, and Mika will be coming to help us pack up our stuff," I told the kids as I set down Angela.
"Okay!" Jay and Scuppers yelled from their rooms.
