Distracting Stanley Part 1

"I detest my middle name!" Anne & James agreed in unison.

One week later after school, Henry and eight of his nine siblings were meeting with Liana who was shooting baskets.

"Liana?" Henry asked, taking the basketball from Liana's hands.

Liana turned around to face Henry, "What do you want?" she asked him.

"Do you think you could distract Stanley by taking him to the video arcade while the rest of us go to the department store?" Alan asked Liana.

"Why do you need to go to the department store today anyway?" Liana asked curiously.

"Presents for Stanley." Henry answered Liana.

"Why are you getting presents for that string bean anyway?" Liana asked curiously.

"Because, Stanley's birthday is two weeks away." Suzie answered Liana.
