Hello, said Jennifer.
Silence
"Stanley?” Dad prompts
"What’s up, Stanley?” Mom calls out.
Stanley didn’t have a clue what to say. I’m sure that he had prepared something but he just couldn’t manage to say it.
"Stanley, I love you!”
You know that there was something he wanted to say but it seemed to be elusive. Perhaps it was because he was feeling all of the emotion.
"If you loved me, you would not have left me!”
Mom is trying to make him feel better but at this point, he is inconsolable. He won’t let her finish but he jumps in with the conversation and you know mom has to be both laughing and crying.
"Is that all you’re going to say?”
Stanley was doing his best to let her know that she needed to come home. They continue their banter back and forth current with mom trying to get him from his obvious bad mood. Stanley just continues to get upset when she finally calls out: "bye-bye! Be a good boy!”
Stanley sees this as his opportunity to exit the room
Stanley may just not like long goodbyes but if you can’t get enough, you can see more in this video:
