Seeing that his wife was still dejected and in low spirits, Daniel turned toward his little troublemaker.
"Sweetie, would you like to sleep with Aunt Greed tonight?" Daniel asked, clearly having an ulterior motive in mind.
"Huh?" Little Sylvana tilted her head in confusion. Usually, she would want to sleep with her favorite aunt so they could enjoy their time indulging in ice cream and games until midnight. But she sensed that something was amiss from her father's question.
"Why? You usually don't want me to sleep with Auntie because you know we'll play games until midnight," Sylvana innocently asked.
"Oh, it's because tomorrow is a special day. I wanted to see if you can wake up on time if you enjoy the games with Aunt Greed. If you wake up late, our time to enjoy Disneyland will be reduced," Daniel answered, teasing his little princess with a half-truth, half-lie.
