My Day Off (Completed)

My Day Off pt 5

My Day Off- pt. 5

"Juliet! Come back!"

"No way Zack!"

I was sitting on our couch reading a book while our kids ran around our house.

Juliet is 4 and Zack is 6. They are so precious. Zack has blonde, soft curls and Juliet has  beautiful chocolate natural wavy hair.

I was about to get back to my book 'The Extensive History on the 911 Twin Tower Crash' when I heard something crash and fall.

Then crying followed. I couldn't tell you how fast I ran over there.

"Oh gosh, my babies! Are you ok?" I yelled as I came closer.

Zack was holding Juliet trying to calm her down. Apparently Juliet wasn't watching where she was going and slipped. She hit the table where a vase sat at the edge.

The vase fell and broke and glass got in her knee. Zack held her and rocked her back and forth, singing to her softly.

"Twinkle Twinkle little star, How I wonder what you are, Up above the world so high like a diamond in the sky." Zack finished  singing and Juliet stopped crying and hugged him.

"Love you"

"Love you too little one" Zack stated as he ruffled her hair.

I 'awed' at the cute moment but I had to interfere if we wanted this glass to get out if her knee. Immediately.

Juliet suddenly started crying again. She reached for me and I grabbed her.

"Mommy. Hurts." She cried. My poor baby.

"I know baby, I know. Sh, mommy's here." I rubbed her back and carried her over to the house phone.

I dialed Vanessa's number who became a pediatrician after 'Switched At Birth'.

Riker picked up the phone.

"Hello?" Riker asked, breathless.

"Yeah, Its Laura."

"Oh hey Laura, What's up?"

"Juliet got some glass in her knee and I need Vanessa, ASAP." I said with firmness in my voice.

"Hold on, I'll put her on."

"Thanks."

After a moment or two, I heard Vanessa's voice. It was more breathless than Riker's.

"Vanessa? Why are your voices breathless?"

"Ummm....." Vanessa's voice trailed off. I got the clue.

"You guys were- Ew! Guys!"

"Excuse me but you're the one who interrupted my day off."

"Yeah but You guys have a kid! Please don't tell me he's in the house?"

" Uh, You know what! That's not your concern! What do you want?"

"I was going to ask if you glass out of Juliet's knee! But you know what? Nevermind!"

I slammed the phone down on the table and ran a hand through my hair.

Juliet was crying and Zack tugged on my shirt.

"Mommy? What's wrong? Is aunty Ness going to come fix Juliet?" Zack asked.

"No Zack, Aunty Ness isn't coming."

"But the other people hurt Juliet. Juliet don't like them." Zack stated. He always cared so much for his sister.

"I know baby. I know." I kissed his forehead and bought Juliet into the living room and sat her down on the couch.
