Alois, what a pleasant surprise! Would you care to join me?

Alois

Ah, perfect! I was just looking for someone to dine with.

Alois

Let's raid the dining hall, shall we?

My goodness, but you're in a good mood.

Manuela, I have some news. I received a letter from my wife today.

Manuela

Oh?

Alois

My daughter just picked up a new skill! Can you guess what it might be?
link
Manuela
volume_up

Singing? Dancing? I've no idea what parents teach their kids, or why they even have children at all. Still, give me a hint. Fishing? Bricklaying? Cooking?

Alois
volume_up

That's right! Spot on, as always. My wife is teaching her the basics.
link
Manuela
volume_up

The basics of...which?
link
Alois

Next time I'm home, my daughter will be able to cook me all my favorite meals.
link
Alois
volume_up

What a lucky father I am! Is any father in the world luckier than I?
link
Manuela
volume_up

I don't know, and I don't care to know.

Alois

My wife greeting me at the door. My daughter's nervous face as she sets the meal on the table.
link
Alois
volume_up

I'm so excited, I bet I won't even be able to taste the food as I devour it.
link
Manuela
volume_up

Wouldn't your daughter appreciate it more if you took the time to savor—
link
Alois
volume_up

Then I'll say, "How delicious! That was the second best meal I've ever had."
link
Manuela
volume_up

Not first best? Shouldn't you encourage her—
link
Alois
volume_up

"Mommy's cooking is the best, but you're a close runner-up, darling!"
link
Manuela
volume_up

Why would you say—
link
Alois
volume_up

"Oh, Daddy, I'm so happy you liked it," she'll say, as she embraces me, a big smile on her little face. Ah! What could make a man happier?
link
Manuela
volume_up

You've forgotten I'm here, haven't you?
link
Manuela
volume_up

All I wanted was a dinner companion. What did I do to deserve this?
