Funniest service call I've been on in a while...

So I'm just working away on an elliptical, not really paying too much attention, as the lady of the house prepares what is apparently a pretty elaborate meal, and the little boy (maybe 7-8 years old) and his sister (I'd guesstimate 6 years old) are mildly arguing over whose turn it is for the video game.

The girl finally gives up on trying to convince her brother to be fair and goes to mom to plead her case-

Mom's response; "You'll have to handle it."

A few moments of silence, then a meaty THUD, then a girl in footie pajamas sporting a cat-that-ate-the-canary grin shuffles quickly across my field of vision as she hastily vacates the scene of the crime.

I put my head down so she won't see me smiling and silently shaking with laughter.

The boy goes to mom and informs her that his sister punched him in the stomach-

Mom's response; "Payback's a bitch, isn't it?"

Priceless.
