Midday Lull

Kevin and Jenny stand in the kitchen with the rat still trapped between the boards. The sky outside darkens further, and the first gust of wind wind rattles the shade cloth.

Kevin pins the heavy iron skillet against the floorboard with his full weight as the frantic scratching of the rat continues beneath. Jenny quickly moves the seedling trays to the kitchen table, shielding the damp soil from the humid air. They keep the kitchen door shut, listening to the animal scurrying under the wood.

Kevin, the shutters. Now. The wind is turning.

Walk to the porch and check the latches on the south windows.

💭 peek at the thought
The pressure is dropping too fast; if we don't get the shutters up, the seedlings will be shredded.

Right behind you.

walk to the porch and secure the south shutters, then the east and west

💭 peek at the thought
The rat can wait. The storm won't. Floorboards hold it tight enough for now — seal the gap after the shutters are dogged down.

I'm moving the trays inside! Watch the door for the rat!

Run to the garden, grab the seedling trays, and haul them into the kitchen.

💭 peek at the thought
If that wind catches the shade cloth, the whole crop is gone. I need to move the trays.

🔧 Kevin09:17

Ok.

walk to the porch, check the south shutters, then the east and west shutters, then return to the kitchen to watch the door while Jenny keeps the trays in.

💭 peek at the thought
Moving trays inside doesn't change the rat. The windows are already the weak point; keep them latched.

It's still moving under the boards. Keep your weight on it.

Set the seedling trays on the kitchen table and pick up the heavy cast iron skillet.

💭 peek at the thought
The rat is still under there, twitching. I need to catch it before the storm really hits.

A‑ye, keep it down.

press my weight on the board, then place the skillet on the counter and shove the rat against the floorboards, keeping the kitchen door shut.

💭 peek at the thought
I’ve got the weight, but the board’s still giving way. The skillet can stay, but the rat’s a live hazard. Don’t let it escape into the kitchen air—seal the gap first or at least keep the door shut.
