Yuffie

Alice nodded obediently as she followed Susan back up the stairs. "Okay.. but do I have to watch TV? It's boring, I don't understand anything. Can I play in my fort instead?" she asked coyly as she walked into the bathroom.

Alice let out a sigh of relief as she sat back down and started eating again. She wondered when she would start school. It would probably not be for a week or two until she could at least say a couple of words and phrases.

Alice blushed brightly but decided to humor them. "M-may I go to te... the bafroom?" she said meekly, looking down at the food on her plate, wondering why she had to do this right now.. she hadn't eaten since last night. "please" she whimpered in swedish.

Alice started to serve up some chili on her plate because apperently Mike and Susan had forgotten about food now during this new topic. "Maj I goe to te bafroom" Alice repeated before putting a spoonful of chili into her mouth. "Mmm" it was good! She smiled brightly. "Maj.. may I go to te bafroom" she said again, taking another spoonful

Alice started to calm dow. She had

Alice's eyes widend. "A couple of years?!" she exclaimed. "But.. but.. I'm not going to make any friends and.. I'll be so lonely and..." her lower lip started to quiver as she thought about being compltely alone for so long without any friends her own age to play with.. suddenly she wasn't so hungry anymore.

Alice looked from Mike to Susan, back and forth as they spoke in english about her schooling. She didn't understand them but maybe that was for the best right now.. instead she took another sip of her milk as she waited for the food to be served.

(Oops >.< no she said Hej so it sounds slightly similar) Alice smiled back at Mike then blushed only slightly as he picked her up and placed her on her chair. She decided on sitting on her knees on the chair before reacing for the glass of milk. "Dwi... " she blushed, why was that R sound so hard in that word. "Drink" she said, looking up at Mike for confirmation before taking a sip. "Chili." she then chirped happily, she could pick that word out of that sentence! "Jag tycker om Chili." she said with a smile just before Susan entered the room. Alice took another sip of the milk.

Alice rolled her eyes. There was no way she was going to go hold it infront of Mike or tell him that she needed to go unless she had to. She already knew how to go potty alone. But Susan didn't need to know what she was thinking. "Okay." She mumbled and slid off Susan's lap and darted off. She ran down the stairs and jumped of the last couple of stairs before heading towards the kitchen, stopping to walk instead just before she entered the kitchen. "Hi" she chirped

Alice blushed. "I won't wet my pants again." she protested and looked down timidily. She did like the hug though. "Pl... plej. pla.." it was a hard word. Alice frowned and looked back up at Susan. "why does English have to be so hard?" so complained, like if she could do anything about it. She leaned into the hug and curled up a bit. "Food... dwi.. drink... potty." she repeated quietly to hereslf. The R sound in drink was also a little different.

Alice nodded, smiling brightly. "Drink." she repeated. It was going to get hard to remember all these words..

The girl blushed as she was pulled up on Susan's lap. She was still almost trembling and she chewed her bottom lip.. but Susan rubbing her back did help to calm her down. She looked up. That word was pretty easy to say. "Food." Alice mimiced, even smiling a little. "Food!" she said again and crossed her arms, obviously feeling a little proud of herself.

Alice looked nervous as she picked up the package without thinking about it, slowly walked over to Susan and sat down. She looked down on the package as she listened to Susan. She didn't understand what the words said but there was cutesy prints all over the top. "Wear what.. what are you.." she rolled over the package in her hands and her eyes grew big. There was a picture of the diapers on the front of the pack. She dropped it on the floor like it was something poisonous or something before looking up ta Susan. "Th-that's fine, because I won't have another accident!" she said severely and stood up. "I.. I'm n-not a baby!" Her fist were clenched and trembling.

Alice frowned. She was feeling a little bad for getting angry at Susan.. but she still felt like they were overdoing it. She was ten years old after all. "I promise I can go potty on my own." she mumbled. "Can I go back to playing now?" she asked, walking over to the bags of clothes and stuff that Mike had bought at the store earlier today. She picked through them a bit, there was a lot of pretty clothes in there, that made her smile.. until she saw a big strange package in the bottom. She grabbed it and it made a crinkly rustle.. "What's this..?"

Alice frowned. "I know how to go to the bathroom... I had an accident because Mike held me and didn't let me go." she said, speaking slowly and starting to sound angry. "And I was standing like that because sometimes I like to stand like that." she pulled up her pants, frowning. "I'm ten years old. I'm not a baby."

"H-hey.. wha-- what are you doing?" Alice blushed as she stumbled after Susan and was put in front of the toilet and suddenly had her pants pulled down. The blush grew darker though as she felt the older lady's hand on her little bottom, making her tense up a little. "I-I don't have to go potty." she mumbled, very meekly.

Alice smiled then shook he head shyly, she hadn't taken Mike's or Susan's pillows. "Okay, thanks Susan." She said sweetly as she crawled out from under the bed, stood up and walked over to Susan. She kept her arms behind her back and she looked up at her. "What did you want to talk about?" she asked, standing a bit crossed-legged and rubbed her left calf with her right foot.

When Susan entered the room Alice peeked out form underneath the bed. She had put a blanket over the bed that reached down to the floor, acting as doors for her new fort.. or maybe pillow cave was more fitting. She had also brought in every pillow and blanket she could find in under the bed. It was actually pretty comfy in there now! "Do you guys have any like mini-light strands that I can have in my fort?" she asked, smiling shyly up at Susan.

Alice let out an annoyed gasp and stomped her foot. It wasn't a hard stomp, it was just to show her displeasure. "Why can't I go outside? Am I just supposed to sit indoors for all eternity?" She pouted over dramatically before storming off. She let out an exasperated huff as she closed the door behind her to her room. What was she going to do? She decided to crawl in underneath her bed again. It was kinda cozy under there actually. It was a little higher than a normal bed so she could almost sit up under there. She pulled the blanket in and proceeded to build a pillow fort!

Alice nodded. She would have to try to remember that.. a very important word it seemed. "Okay" she replied. "But I'm not sulking." she then added, looking up at Susan and crossing her arms testily with a little "humpf". She looked back over to the television. She had been sitting still for so much today and she was getting a little jittery. "Can I go play outside?" she asked, looking up again.

Alice shrugged. She hadn't really thought about about if Mike had meant to do any of those things. She was just upset that it had happened. She looked up at Susan. "I already know 'doun'.." she still had problems pronouncing 'down'. "..and I think I know 'potty'" she said, blushing. "It means that I have to pee, right?" she said and looked away shyly. She smiled weakly over at Mike. She had already kinda forgiven him. Mostly anyways.

Alice bit her lower lip as she got settled on Susan's lap. She curled up again, one arm wrapped around her knees and the other absentmindedly rubbing her own feet. "F-first it was super boring and scary at the court house.. then Mike took me to McDonalds and he sat me down on a wet seat... then I was pantsless to the super market.." she blushed and hid her face against her knees. "Th-then.. then I had another nightmare when we got home... then Mike held me when I had to go to the bathroom so I had another accident." she whimpered, her voice trailing off

Alice was still curled up on his lap but not sleeping. She was still watching the cartoons before she noticed Susan walked up to them. She let go of Mike and instead reached her arms up for her. "Miserable." The girl whimpered as a response. "This has been the worst day."

Even though she didn't know that Mike had called her one, she kinda felt like a baby at that moment as they watched cartoons together, her sitting on his lap. She had very reluctantly let go of his arms and was still kinda turning over on her side on his lap to get closer. She was acting very clingy at the moment. She squirmed slightly as he rubbed her tummy at first, but then she yielded and instead curled up again, playing with her and chewing softly on her lower lip as she watched the cartoons.

Although she didn't understand any of the words, she did recognize the tone. Alice had always been eating very little and been pretty picky. It was the same way her mom had spoken to her at the dinner table sometimes. Hoping to make him stop worry at least for a bit, she reluctantly reached out one arm for the chicken again, the other one still wrapped around Mike's arm. She took one more bite before putting it back, then hid her face against him again.
