The borrowed dessert van smelled of stale fries and regret. Molly squinted through binoculars at the suburban backyard, where a bouncy castle wobbled like a sugary moon. Balloons bobbed. A toddler gnawed the mailbox. Somewhere a karaoke machine butchered a pop anthem. A line of tiny party guests shrieked with sticky glee. Beside her, Bill stuffed his enormous feet into fluffy clown shoes. “We waltz in as clowns and grab every glittery present,” Bill said, knocking over a tub of fart putty. Molly snapped her gum. The plan required grace, not a giant accountant in a rainbow wig. She checked her watch. The gift table groaned under wrapping paper, ribbons, and one suspiciously heavy box shaped like a dinosaur. Molly’s fingers itched for the shiny loot. The cake knew. “Fine, but you are not touching the piñata this time,” Molly replied. Bill saluted with a whoopee cushion. Bill tripped on his own inflatable pants. He blamed gravity. Outside, a mother handed out cupcakes. Molly rehearsed her smile. Bill rehearsed falling over. They had three minutes before the magician arrived, and Molly intended to leave with every present, every goodie bag, and possibly the magician’s rabbit. The van’s door creaked. Showtime.
