Capítulo 38: Midnight snacks

Even at dinner, the family's topic was mainly what they would name Penny's new pet. 

"You still haven't thought of a name?" Atlas asked out of pure curiosity. 

Allison shook her head. "Penny hadn't decided."

"How can she decide when the list is longer than our carpet?" Charles sighed.

"I believe Penny can choose eventually," said Haines with a chuckle. "No rush, Penny."

Penny smiled as she ate another spoonful. Getting a new pet today wasn't what she expected, but it was nice. Her new pet was cute, and it also seemed well-behaved. Having additional companions wasn't all that bad.

The family dined peacefully without any events. 

"I'm finished!" Slater announced, finishing his meal early. "Mom, Dad, I forgot I have an assignment to do. I'll do it now!" 

After saying his piece, Slater dashed away like a bolt of lightning.
