"Hello?  Anyone home? Where is everybody?" Irene’s husband called from the front door.

Sarah jumped, gave a nervous chuckle, then totally distracted, ran downstairs to her father. "I’m here, daddy!"

She threw her arms around him and hugged him as though she had not seen him for days.  "Did you have a good day, Daddy? I did. I had a very good day. Do you want to know what happened today, Daddy?  After I got home, I was helping Mom in the kitchen, when we heard something banging upstairs, so we both when up to see what it was, but then we didn’t know where it came from. I thought it came from the bedroom, YOUR bedroom, but then I wasn’t sure."  Sarah barely paused to catch her breathe.

Irene reached the bottom of the stairs and glanced up to the second landing. She smiled at Edward and interrupted Sarah. "Sarah, your father just walked in the door. Give him a chance to at least put his coat down."  She reached for Edward’s coat. He handed it to Irene, gave her a quick peck on the cheek and returned his attention to Sarah. 

So, Sarah, what happened? What did you find?"
