"So for today's assignment we are going to take on roles. Each will be assigned to play the following kinds of roles: a married couple, an engaged couple, and a couple with a baby, and a couple always fighting with each other. I will pick names from a hat, one hat for boys and one hat for girls. No trades," Jesse said, looking around at the entire NBB. Thomas and David scowled and lay back on the couch, clearly not wanting to do this assignment. Nat and Alex just looked at each other and smirked. Nat thought to himself 'hopefully I don't get married to Rosalina. That'd be just awkward."
"Ok so now I will pull the names," Jesse said. "David, bring the hats please." David brought them to her and she reached her hand into the girls' hat. "So for the couple that is engaged, the girl is…" she said as she picked a name from the hat, "Kristina. And the boy will be…" again, she picked one, "Thomas." Thomas stared at her, thinking she must be kidding. Kristina just laughed. "Ok go stand next to your future wife Thomas."
"And exactly how long do we have to do this?" Thomas grumbled.
"2 weeks. I'll tell you the rules after I'm finished Thomas." Jesse replied, reaching in again for the girls' hat. When she was done, the couple with a baby was Patty and David. The couple always fighting was Juanita and Nat. Everyone looked around, realizing that the married couple had to be… "Rosalina and Alex are the married couple," Jesse said. Rosalina blushed and Alex just smiled, thinking of how awkward this was going to be, but how much fun it could be at the same time. "So what are the rules Jesse?" Rosalina asked, laughing to herself.
"Well for the married couple, the girl must move in with the boy. There will be no sleeping in the same bed. She will most likely sleep on the couch, but still they have to live in the same house. The engaged couple, besides the sleeping part, will be together most of the days and at night must call each other. I will be keeping track of that through the parents. As for the couple with a baby," Jesse giggled and reached behind her. "Here is a doll baby. It cries, needs to be fed and held, all of that stuff. You must take care of it and trade off. This baby has a monitor and keeps track of when it was held and if it was ignored for a long period of time." David frowned knowing that a baby crying would annoy the heck out of him. Patty just smiled, loving the fact of having a baby.
"If you have any futher questions, you can talk to me later. Here's the baby Patty," she said as she handed it to her. "Have fun!" Jesse left the room to let them figure things out.
"I have a couch you can sleep on Patty. So yeah…" David said, not exactly sure what to say to her. She smiled and nodded at him, softly rocking the baby in her arms. "Do we have to name the baby?" She asked him.
"Yeah name him David Jr." Thomas laughed.
"No. How bout just Fred?" David suggested. Patty nodded.
"And Rosalina you have been to our house of course many times, you can sleep in the living room couch," Alex said.
Later that afternoon, Rosalina and Juanita showed up at the Wolff's apartment with their stuff, not quite sure how to prepare for two weeks in this place. Rosalina rang the doorbell and then glanced at Juanita. She was rocking back and forth from one leg to the other, obviously nervous. Alex answered the door and smiled at both of them.
"We'll be setting up the couches a little bit later," he said. Nat came up behind him, but he tried to do everything to avoid eye contact with Rosalina. It was going to be awkward enough fighting with Juanita. "Erm…yeah…come on in…" he stuttered. "You look horrible Juanita by the way," he said, frowning. At first, everyone was taken back at what Nat had just said. It was Rosalina that first got he was just in character. Juanita soon joined in. "Well, look at yourself. Your no prince charming anyway." Rosalina and Alex looked at each other, both thinking it was going to be a very long 2 weeks.
