The Runaway (private with Valeria)

[valeria]

I faught a bit as i didn't want to take a bath as i didn't feel tired either as i sat there on the floor of the bathroom.

[robehouse]

When the water was ready, Janice picked Valeria up and undressed her, then put her in the tub. She started washing her.

"I would think you would want to be to clean, Valeria. You're so much prettier when you're clean."

[valeria]

I pretend not to listen to you as i splash water everywhere on purpose as you try to finish washing me.

[robehouse]

Janice ignores Valeria's splashing and finishes washing her. She lifts Valeria up and takes her out of the tub. She dries her off with a large towel and takes her to the nursery. She laid her on the changing table and diapered her. She got her off the changing table and put a nightgown on her.

"Do you want to say goodnight to grandma before you go to bed?"

[valeria]

"I no tired me no want bed me stay up for tv" i looked at you alittle as you get me dressed for bed.

[robehouse]

"That's not going to happen. You know if you weren't so stubborn I would set up a tv schedule for you so that you could watch a little tv at a time. but you go way overboard and want to be watching tv all the time. So for now, no tv."

Janice took Valeria out so she could say goodnight to Polly.

[valeria]

"No schedule me no wike that me want tv when i want it" i pout trying to get out of your arms.

[robehouse]

"Well it's my responsibility as your mother to let you watch some tv and then play some as well.:

Janice found Polly.

"Valeria wants to say goodnight to you."

[valeria]

[robehouse]

Janice smiled and took Valeria back up to the nursery. She put Valeria in her crib and covered her up.

[valeria]

I wasn't tired as i sat up thinking how to get out of the crib as i doubt you would treat me lower then how i am now as i sometimes forget the baby monitor is on.

[robehouse]

Janice comes in the nursery before she goes to bed.

"What are you doing sitting up? You should be laying down sleeping. You have a big day tomorrow. Now come on."

[valeria]

"No me no want to sleep no big day tomorrow me stay home" i pout crossing my arms as i get up from the crib.

[robehouse]

Janice stops Valeria from climbing out of the crib.

"Do I need to strap you down to keep you in your crib?" Janice holds Valeria in her crib.

[valeria]

"I no wanna sleep me no tired" i fussed and whined as i was not gonna give in to sleeping as i rubbed my eyes.

[robehouse]

"you know, I am tired of listening to you fuss. If you don't want to sleep, fine. But you are not leaving the nursery. and don't blame me if you are tired at school tomorrow."

Janice shook her head and left the room, shutting and locking the door behind her.

[valeria]

I just start crying as it was hard to understand all of this

[robehouse]

Janice hears her crying and goes back in the nursery. She picks her up and carries her over to a chair. She sits down and holds Valeria and rocks her.

[valeria]

I cry for awhile as i hold on to you not letting go as i try to calm down as i cough a bit as i rubbed my eyes as sometime passes by my body fights to go to sleep.

[robehouse]

Janice rocks Valeria and pats her bottom, talking softly in her ear, trying to get her to settle down.

"It's okay baby."

[valeria]

I eventually started to fall right to sleep in your arms as i suck on my fingers as i curled up close to you.

[robehouse]

Janice falls asleep as well, holding Valeria close to her. She keeps Valeria tucked in her arms, holding her tight.

[valeria]

I whine and fuss in my sleep as i suck my fingers as i drool i don't feel you put me back in the crib at all from how exhausted i was.

[robehouse]

Janice laid Valeria back in the crib and left the nursery. She went back to her own bed and laid down, falling asleep in a few minutes. She remained asleep until it was morning. Her alarm clock woke her up.

[valeria]

I slept for awhile as i toss and turn for a bit as i sleep curled up under the covers as i suck on my fingers.
