Choice Ashley had never felt insomnia until the day she saw her parents in the middle of an argument. The unwavering love between her parents was one of the few things in life that Ashley had taken for granted. She did not want to be like her friends who celebrated two Christmases and Thanksgivings. I will help out more in the kitchen, Ashley thought and resolved. "Maybe Dad needs help with work?" she asked herself. The idea of an internship in her father's law firm sounded appealing.
Ashley felt mature and happy with her potential role in the family. She had decided in the hours without sleep that she would do whatever it took to glue her parents together. Just when she thought her eyelids were getting heavy, she saw her parents enter her room.
"I thought you were awake, sweets," Diane said as she sat on her daughter's bed. "What's wrong?"
"Buttons, you oughta help us out here," Antonio let his loud voice echo in the silence of the night."Your mother and I can't decide about your major in college."
Ashley could not believe that the heated argument was about her. She tried to search in her father's eyes for a plausible alternative that would explain the earlier uproar. "That's what you guys were arguing about?" Ashley asked anyway.
"It takes a village to raise a child," Diane replied. "And two people are bound to disagree. Right, Mr. Lawyer? "
"Your microbiologist mother is right," Antonio agreed. "Besides, I have a strong vocal cord, buttons. I am loud."
Ashley found herself wondering about the choices her parents had considered for her. She ended up blurting, "Whatever makes both of you happy forever."
