I am Wiggles. I am not Stella. Shhh! I am trying to sneak some eggs from Lady Human. Don’t tell anybody.
Me: You can have an egg or two.
Wiggles: Whisper, Lady Human. If they hear you, I’ll miss my advantage.
Me: I have enough eggs for everybody. You won’t miss out.
Wiggles: But if you give me an egg in the kitchen when nobody else is looking, that is super special.
Me: Okay. Well, here.
Wiggles: Mmmm…
Stella: Hey, what’s going on in there?
Me: Nothing.
Wiggles: I told you. Whisper.
Me: Here. Have another one.
Wiggles: Thanks, Lady Human. How come?
Me: Just because. You are a true egg lover. I’ve never seen anybody love eggs as much as you do.
Wiggles: They taste great. They smell wonderful. They are the perfect food. So is every other type of food.
Stella: Hey, everybody! Wiggles is getting something in the kitchen that we aren’t! Charge!
Me: Sorry, Wiggles, the game is up. They’re onto us.
Wiggles: Hey, I still got mine. It was a nice try, Lady Human. Next time, talk less, whisper more. They are always listening and smelling.
