12. Root Beer Floats
Two young boys sat in a diner booth, their father sitting across from them. It was dinner time and Sam had eaten most of his green beans, with Dean cleaning off his plate of spaghetti. John was about to ask for the check when Sam pointed to the card on the table.
"What's a root beer float, Dad?"
"It's a drink, you idiot," said Dean, rolling his eyes.
"Dean, stop it," John said, then looked at his youngest boy. "A root beer float is a root beer with ice cream in it."
"Oh. Can Dean and me get one, Dad?"
John looked at Sam, then glanced over at Dean, who was paying attention.
"Sure."
He called for the waitress. "Uh, miss, can I get two root beer floats for my sons here?"
