Cap 22

Maya: (running into Laura's arms) Mommy, Mommy, I missed you!

Laura: (kissing her forehead) I missed you too, angel

Maya: (with a sad voice) What happened? Auntie Olga told me you wanted to talk to me. We didn't go home, did we? Please no!

Laura: Not my dear. It's not about that. We're not going home.

Maya: Yuppy

Laura: My dear, mommy has something important to tell you. I want you to listen to me carefully.

Maya: I'm listening to you, Mom. What happened . You know you can tell me anything I'm not a baby anymore, I'm big now

Laura: Baby, mommy has a little cold, the doctor tell me that I will have to stay in this room for a few days and take the pills to get well.

Maya: Don't worry mom, I'll stay with you. I'll take care of you and I'll give you the pills so you can get well soon.

Laura: Thank you, my little one. But it's better for mom to be alone so you don't catch a cold.

Maya: It's okay. If I catch a cold, we'll both stay in bed, watching TV and eat pizza.

Laura: Maya, but you don't want Matteo, your uncle and aunt to catch a cold, do you?

Maya: Of course I don't want to

Laura: Then you have to stay with them for a few days until mom recovers. And mom stay here alone.

Maya: But ...

Laura: You've been waiting so long for this vacation. Have fun with Matteo. When we get home, you'll miss him

Maya: But will you be okay? Who will take care of you?

Laura: I'll be fine with one condition. If you promise me you'll have a lot of fun.
Do not worry. The doctor will make sure I get well soon.

Maya: Promise?

Laura: Promise

Maya: (hugging Laura) Love you mommy

Laura: Love you more my angel
