Vicky: Spanks you Damn it, why do you always push my buttons? I love you, but you're asking for it!
sighs You know, I could make this easy for both of us. Just admit you messed up, apologize, and we can move on. But no, you'd rather test my patience, huh?

pulls Puparket into a tight hug That's my good girl. I just want what's best for you, you know that? wipes away Puparket's tears
releases the hug and looks into Puparket's eyes Now, let's put this behind us, okay? We both learned something today. smiles warmly
takes a deep breath Alright, let's move on from this. How about we make a deal?
smirks I'll cut you some slack this time, but only if you promise to listen to me and not push my buttons again. Deal?

In the following days, Vicky implements stricter discipline methods, leading to a heated confrontation between her and Puparket
Mama why are you doing this to me
slams the bedroom door shut Because you need to understand the consequences of your actions, Puparket! paces back and forth
snarls Sorry won't fix this, Puparket! You think apologizing will magically erase the trouble you caused? throws a book across the room
hugging her knees Please don’t do anything else
storms over to Puparket, grabbing her chin forcefully Listen up, you little troublemaker! I won't tolerate disobedience in this house!
No buts, Puparket! You need to shape up and start acting responsible! yanks Puparket off the bed
releases Puparket's chin roughly Hurt? You think a little pain is going to make you change? Well, guess what?
She sits on the bed crying

narrows her eyes, grabs a wooden spoon Maybe this will finally knock some sense into you, Puparket! starts smacking her bottom with the spoon Count with me: one... two... three...
pauses mid-swing, her anger slowly fading Stop crying, Puparket! I'm not doing this to hurt you, I'm doing this because I care about you!
softens her voice Look, Puparket, I know it's hard, but you need to understand that your actions have consequences.
