Mischief in the Bathroom

Linda is a gardener. She spends the day working on her plants. When she gets home, covered in soil and tired, the only thing that she wants is to have a relaxing bath. She almost never showers. Instead of a shower, she turns on the tap, fills the tub with hot water, turns on some music, closes her eyes and forgets about everything.

Butter and Marmalade, her two cats, sneak into the bathroom. This is their favourite moment of the day. Marmalade loves looking in the mirror and combing his fur with Linda’s toothbrush; he’s a very pretty cat! He loves jumping on the toothpaste and spreading it all over the sink. Butter, on the other hand, can’t wait to play with the toilet roll.

Linda gets up to reach her towel and gets a shock. She can’t believe her eyes: what a disaster! The cats run like lightning out of the bathroom. Behind them, the cats have left behind a rubber duck floating in the toilet. Linda asks herself disconcertedly: did the rubber ducky do this himself?
