"Well, I suppose that it wouldn't do any harm for you to stay in Max's room tonight," your mom finally says after a minute. "This way, Sam doesn't have to lose access to her little workout room while Maggie is here."

"I don't mind, Mom," Sam interjects. "Really, I can go without for a few days."

"That's very polite of you, Sam," your mother responds. "But Max does have a large bed, and he is a grown man now."

"Mom!" Lisa objects. "You never let me have my guys sleep in my room."

"That's because you started asking when you were twelve," Sandy retorts. "And I seem to recall that my forbidding it didn't mean that they still didn't end up there, if I remember correctly." She reaches for a fortune cookie. "Besides, you haven't asked in years. Things change."

"So I can start having guys sleep over then?" Lisa asks hopefully.

Your mom cracks open her fortune cookie, and pulls out the slip of paper. "No."

Lisa pouts. "That's not fair. Why Max and not me?"

Your mother reads her fortune off the piece of paper, then sets it down on the table next to her plate. She puts a piece of the broken cookie into her mouth. "If I allow you to do it, we'd have a different man here every night of the week." What next?
