"Dammit, Larissa. If you don't stop screaming and just listen to me I'm going to just do it." How can she be so short tempered these days. How can she be this unreasonable?
"No. I said no and I mean no." She stomped her foot, literally stomped her foot like she was two years old and I couldn't help but smirk at her. I knew better than to laugh.
"Do you honestly believe that we if we let her go she won't get hurt? Eric, she's only a child mentally, not a seventeen year old girl. Yes she is smart and yes she is responsible but we've never let her go anywhere by herself for any extended period of time. How can we just let her go. We don't know any of these people." She stood up and started pacing around the room. She placed her hand on her stomach, that now had a larger baby bump. She was glowing, but her attitude this time around was something I could live without. She was so off balance and moody. She would fight with me and Jaya about everything. Alem is lucky he's gone because she's probably make him cry.
Taking a deep breath, I answered her carefully. "Love, when we enrolled her in school we knew she was going to have field trips and do all kinds of things that normal kids do. She can be in school because she doesn't age as fast as Alem. This is important to her and we need to be supportive before we hold her too tight and lose her all together." Larissa stopped pacing and turned away from me. Her emotions were all over the place, making me on edge as well.
