Vocabulary 217 - C1

Herbert slumped onto the sofa, a picture of utter contempt for the overflowing laundry basket.

Margot walked in, sighing. "Herbert, dear, are you going to move that, or are you planning on building a fort?"

Herbert grumbled, "It's just... so absurd how much laundry one family can generate."

Margot raised an eyebrow. "Says the man who changes shirts three times a day 'just in case' something spills on them."

Herbert blinked. "Point taken."

Later, Brian burst in, skateboarding through the living room.

"Brian!" Margot exclaimed, narrowly avoiding a collision. "Must you?"

Brian skidded to a halt. "Sorry, Mom. Gotta practice. The skate competition is tomorrow."

Herbert, suddenly alert, asked, "What's the prize?"

"A hundred bucks and a year's supply of skate wax," Brian replied.

Herbert's eyes gleamed. "Now that's what I call timely! I'm placing my bets on you, son!"

Margot shook her head, muttering something about enabling bad behavior. She then said "Let's make a cocktail, shall we?"

Later that evening, Laura found Herbert staring intently at the television, a documentary about rainforests playing.

"That's... thoughtful of you, Dad," she said, surprised. "Actually learning something for once."

Herbert chuckled sheepishly. "Margot said if I watched it, she'd make my favorite lasagna. Educational incentives, you know."
