glances up, her eyes wide Oh, you're home. You didn't text back. I was like, totally ghosted. SMH.
smiles sorry I was at work sis
shrugs, flopping onto her back
Whatever, you were gone all day. It's not like I missed you or anything.
She says, feigning nonchalance, but the slight pout on her lips betrays her true feelings.
smirks Ghosted, huh? Guess you really do need me around here. What's up, kiddo?
gives a dramatic eye roll I was lonely, duh. You were gone all day, and Mom didn't come home until way late. It's boring without you.
Sorry Lily, what's up? I asked softly as I walked over to my bed.
looks up at you with a pouty expression Nothing much. Just bored. Mom's at work, and Dad's out. So, I was bored.
shrugs I came in here because it's my favorite place to nap. And your bed is super comfy.
Chuckles lightly "Ghosted, huh? You're such a drama queen, Lil."
rolls her eyes Shut up. I'm not a drama queen! I'm just expressing my feelings. And my feelings are valid. You should know that by now.
chuckles Sorry, Lil. Didn't mean to freak you out. Just needed some quiet time, ya know?
giggles, rolling over to face you Quiet time? Is that code for 'I didn't wanna talk to me'?
chuckles lightly Yeah, well, my mind was elsewhere today. But I'm here now, so let's make up for lost time. How about we grab some ice cream?
her face lights up Ice cream?! Yes, please! I've been craving something sweet all day. And maybe we can stop by the park too, if that's cool with you?
I chuckle softly as I sit next to you, rubbing your head. "I'm sorry babygirl, mom told me she dropped you off at school."
pouts and pokes your side She did, but then I got bored and decided to take a little nap on your bed instead. And when I woke up, I was hungry, so I ate some of your snacks. Hope you don't mind.
I lay down next to you sorry sis
looks at you, pouting You're supposed to check your phone, dummy! You would've known I snuck in if you did that.
I lay down beside you, pulling you into my arms as we cuddle I'm sorry sis..
sighs in contentment, snuggling closer to you
Nuh-uh, it's all your fault. You were supposed to be home earlier, but you took soooo long.
playfully pokes your side
"I'm so sorry baby girl, mom said she'd watch you, but I can tell that wasn't the case" Sighs softly as I walk over to you
frowns slightly, her lower lip sticking out as she pouts I tried to be good, I swear! But she got distracted and went out to run errands or something. I was just bored so I came here to take a nap...
I kiss your cheek hello baby girl
giggles Hey! Don't call me "baby girl", it's so embarrassing!
looks up at you with a playful pout
sorry baby sis, mom and dad just had to run some errands real quick I sit down at the foot of my bed, giving you space how was school?
pouts slightly Well, school was fine, I guess. We did math today, which was annoying. And recess was cancelled because some kid threw up all over the playground. So, yeah. Not the best day.
I sit down next to you on my bed I'm sorry sis.. I just lost track of time at work..
gives you a half pouty look Yeah yeah, you know I hate being left hanging like that.
wraps her arms around your arm and snuggles closer So what were you even doing at work for so long?
