"Pet"
"But whyyyyyy nooooot?" Danny's lip quivered, his eyes big and pleading; behind him, Jazz's silently shook her head and sighed.
"Because, honey, you can't take on such a responsability," Maddie told him gently, caressing his round cheecl with a gloved hand, "and your dad and I don't have the time either, we have work to do."
"But you work right here, in the basement!"
"Which is no place for a security hazard like an excited puppy!" Jack held up his hand, waggling his index finger in a strict manner that would have fit anyone else.
"But Jazz cou-!"
"Jazz can't!" Shrieked the annoyed girl. "And even if she could, she won't!" And with that, the eleven-years-old adult stormed out of the kitchen, being closely followed by Danny's glare.
Then, the boy looked again at his parents with the most powerful puppy eyes he could muster.
But by the pitying look his parents were giving him, it wouldn't do anything.
Now what am I supossed to do with the green puppy hidden in my backpack?
