Mark felt a familiar sting of frustration. He’d forgotten, again. A subtle, almost imperceptible detail – the opera fundraiser, mentioned weeks ago. "You're a terrible listener," she said, the words laced with a weary exasperation that mirrored his own. Meanwhile, Brad and Randy, engrossed in their carpentry, attempted to coax Mark into consuming an earthworm while assembling a birdhouse. The air filled with the sounds of hammering, bickering, and Mark's increasingly desperate protests.
