Walking into the living room, Daniel sighed when his eyes spotted Anthony reclined on the couch, absorbed in his video game.

"So, Anthony," he said, "you up for hanging out today? I know you said you're not interested in karate, but maybe you and I could catch a ball game? I still got those season tickets. Your mom and Sam will be out."

"Not feeling it," replied Anthony. He heard his dad sigh again and peeked up at him as he strolled out of the room. It would've been nice if his father suggested playing video games with him once.
