Ollie looked at his grandparents with the kind of adoration that only a favorite grandchild could manage. "Tell them about the car hijacking! That's my favorite story!" "Oh god," Silvia said, laughing so hard she had to hold her ribs. "Samuel, should we tell them about the car hijacking?" "Absolutely not," Samuel said. "That story makes us look terrible." "Please!"

By the time I finish, they’re laughing so hard they’re clutching their bellies.
