instead of a verbal response. Obviously, she was going

to grab her pajamas, take a shower, and go to bed.

Emmanuel knew she would sleep at eleven sharp, so

necessary arrangements, even inviting our relatives. If

After a pause, he added, “If you don’t keep your word,

I’ll have no choice but to let your grandpa know.”
