Herbert shuffled into the kitchen, eyes half-closed, already thinking about his after-lunch nap. Margot was at the table, reviewing some documents. "Morning, dear," he mumbled, heading straight for the coffee pot.

"Morning, Herbert. Did you remember to call about that utility bill?" Margot asked, not looking up. Herbert poured his coffee, trying to avoid eye contact.

"Oh, that. Almost slipped my mind. I'll get to it later," he said vaguely. He knew he wouldn't.

Margot sighed. "Herbert, it's overdue. Again. And I need to look through all these documents. The latest company disclosure forms for Oakhaven Industries are here, and something doesn't feel quite right."

Herbert stopped mid-sip. "Oakhaven Industries? What kind of disclosure are we talking about? Anything interesting? Any whispers of a merger or something?" He suddenly perked up, abandoning his coffee for a moment.

Margot frowned. "I don't know yet. That's what I'm trying to figure out. But it seems like they are planning an merger with another company."

Brian burst into the kitchen, skateboard in hand. "Mom, can you bless my new ramp? I finished it!" He held up a splintery piece of wood, looking proud. "I mean, can you say it's okay to use?"

Margot glanced at the ramp, then back at the documents. "Brian, dear, it looks�?� precarious. I need a closer look later. And Herbert, please call about that bill. I need a firm grip on our expenses and the company's financials."

Herbert, already losing interest in ramp construction and complicated finances, mumbled, "Right, right. The utility bill. Later."

Brian, ignoring Herbert, pressed on. "But Mom! Can I use it now? Please!"

Margot, overwhelmed, closed her eyes briefly. "Bless it, Brian. Just�?� be careful."
