“Carlisle,” I said, excited. I entered the room, but he wasn’t inside. Suddenly his head peeped out of our closet. I walked to him and embraced him. “Thank you.” “For what?” he asked. “For cleaning up, of course and several other reasons,” I said with a wink. “Always, I was there, so I cleaned it up,” he said self-evidently.
