Liam was reading a comic book while seated at the head of the bedwhereas Isabel was dressed in a panda onesie, sleeping soundly in Liam‘s arms. Besides them, there was nobody else in the room. At this time, Liam looked at Odell. He asked, “Daddy, is something wrong?” Odell pursed his lips before replying with a question of his own, “What did you both do after coming home from school today?” Liam replied, “We ate, got on a phone call with Mommy, and now we‘re reading and sleeping.” A phone call?
