“You’re late,” my friend, Jen called from the top of the steps.

“By like two minutes,” I replied as I ascended the steps with my daughter.

“I was on time,” Jen smirked.

Yeah, but you’re a dick so it doesn’t count.

“You didn’t have to deal with a three-year-old refusing to get in the car because she’s got the wrong color shoes on,” I replied, rolling my eyes.

As we came to a stop in front of Jen, my daughter raised her foot in the air and mumbled, “Pink.”

“I like your pink shoes,” Jen began.

“Don’t bother,” I said. “She doesn’t like pink today. Shall we go in?”

We walked through the glass doors of the gym and up to the scanners. I removed my membership card from my pocket and swiped it on the machine. Looking over my shoulder, I noticed Jen had walked over to the reception desk.

“Mommy, can we go swimming now?” My daughter asked, tugging on my jacket.

“One minute. Let’s wait over here for Jen,” I replied with one eyebrow raised.
