100 Years

Setting: It's 8am. Max and Emma are still sleeping after a long day yesterday. They have school in 45 minutes so Dad opens their doors a bit to let in some light and hopefully get things stirring. Max stirs, sits upright in bed and rubs his eyes.
Max: "Good morning, Dad."
Dad: "Good morning, Max."
Max: "I didn't sleep for 100 years."

Pause:

Max:
"I slept just a little while. I slept for 5 minutes."
