Max grabbed the white container, a fork and quickly ran back upstairs. “But yes, it’s in the white container still in the bag.” “Thank you Peter.” Amanda twisted to thank the spider, scooping food onto Rachael’s plate. “Max,” Peter interrupted, “your mother is busy.” The spider still spun, dancing with its front legs. “Did you get a large entree of Lemon Chicken?” Max leaned over his mother’s shoulder. “I know baby, let me get that for you okay?” “Shrimp!” The girl yelled, enthused at the prospect of the meal.

She thought herself a diva, diving into scales and arpeggios, a mistress of quarter-tone tuning and toothache dynamics.
