6. Frog’s Break
A break. Olivia’s watching the one hour a day of TV they allow her to. Denise is in the bedroom nursing their three-week-old baby. He pours coffee out of the thermos — this morning’s, but doesn’t want to spend time making fresh coffee — and goes into his room and shuts the door. What to do? An hour, but only if Eva falls asleep right after she’s fed. She doesn’t, then if Denise doesn’t ask him to walk her to get her to sleep or gently bounce her to bring up the bubble. First a postcard to get started.
