Saying Goodbye: A Sugar and Spies Drabble

Napoleon and Illya had finished packing for their trip to the Los Angeles office with Mr. Waverly.  They would be gone for three days.  Illya came out of his bedroom and called Leona from hers.

He knelt to speak to the four year old.  “Daddy and I are going to be gone for a few days, but we’ll be home Friday.”

“But Papa, we’ll be in pieces!  I’ll miss you!”

“Do you mean ‘apart’?”  Napoleon asked as he walked toward them.

“No, I mean ‘not together, in pieces;’ like a puzzle.”

Illya hugged her close.  “We will miss you, too.”

That is nice. And Leona's a very bright kid.
