Will it? Oh, that’s good to hear!
*he
watches as Carlos runs off, sniffling slightly.. oh, oh no Max please
don’t- he starts crying, tightly holding onto Angies shirt*A: Oh, Maxy! It’s okay! Papa’s gonna be back soon! *she
tries to gently bounce him, though with her size it quickly becomes a bit
difficult. She instead sits on a log and holds him close, still cooing at him.*
Papa’s just getting his car! Then we can go to the store and get you all sorts
of nice things! You know, daddy got me a blanket with science stuff on it for
my first birthday – I still have it! I didn’t bring it though – I wish I did.
Then you could use it!*he calms down slightly, still tightly holding onto the other* pa.. papa…
*Angie blinks at him and gasps, but then smiles widely* You
talked! Oh, cute! What else can you say, Maxy? Can you say ‘Angie’?*he looks up at her, tears still running down his face as he whimpers slightly*
Oh… it’s okay, Maxy! Don’t cry… Papa’s coming back! *she
uses her thumbs to brush the tears from his face, wiping them away in his
shirt*
