As morning broke, Charlotte was still slumbering away. Ellie barged into the room and leaped into her arms.

“Ellie!” Charlotte awoke with a shock. Before she could react, Ellie cupped her face and peppered it with kisses. Charlotte’s face dripped with saliva as Ellie exclaimed, “I missed you so much, Mommy!”

“I missed you too! My good girl, I won’t leave you again.” Charlotte hugged Ellie tightly.

“Boohoo, you must keep your promise, Mommy.” Ellie’s mouth puckered into a pout as tears filled her eyes. “If you leave me again, I will ignore you.”

“I didn’t leave you. I was just late and didn’t manage to fetch you.” Charlotte cradled Ellie’s chubby cheeks as she anxiously explained, “I’m sorry. Please don’t be angry with me, okay?”“Hmph!” Ellie turned her head away and went on pouting. “I’ll only forgive you if you make me bread!”

“Sure, I’ll go and make your bread now.” Charlotte quickly climbed out of bed.

“Mommy, Mommy…” In the opposite room, Jamie’s urgent voice called out, “Take me to see Mommy, Robbie!”
