Daddy's Love novel Chapter 27

Today is the day I have to go back to work and Ana is not too happy about it.

She has been acting up since morning, which she rarely does, causing trouble ever since she has woken up.

"Ana! Come down already! Why did you run up again?" I shout from downstairs. I just went in to get her fruits and she ran up the third time in the last five minutes.

I sigh.

"I stay alone!" she says running back down. She is sort of hyper active today.

"Absolutely not. You'll be going over to Uncle Jay's."

"No! No! No!" She stomps her foot.

"What Ana? You don't want to meet Uncle Jay and play with Carol?" I ask as I pick her up and place her on the high chair.

"No! Don't goooo!" She whines.

"I'll only be gone for a couple of hours and be back before you know it, I promise." I tell her gently.

"I be naughty!" She threatens.

I stare at her.

"By all means, go ahead and be naughty, Jay will toast your butt." I tell her.

"I will rub my eyes, run around and not take a nap."

I roll my eyes.

"Okay."

"Okay?" She asks me incredulously.

I nod and feed her little bites.

"I will also not eat the vegetables." She says, thinking hard about what else she can be naughty with.

"I will eat all the candies too!" She has a lot of chocolates in her secret stash under the bed in my room.

"Then you will have a tummy ache and we will have to take you to Mr. G" I tell her and she makes a face.

We were at the park two days ago, where Mr. G was with his little, playing and all. Ana saw him and freaked out and ran back to me crying. She is petrified of the man. She had a hard time believing that Mr. G could have a little that he loves.

"I will climb the bookshelves.!"

"That is precisely why I am not leaving you alone here." I say dryly.

"I will climb uncle Jay's book shelf!"

"He doesn't have one." I roll my eyes again.
