When Tamara went to the place to do the sound check, her cell phone rang. She saw that it was Irene and replied:
-Hello, Love!
-Hi, Mom!
-Son! Mommy's love.
-Mom, will you let me go to Joana's house?
-Of course, son. But, you have to ask mom Irene.
-She won't let him and neither will Grandma.
-Son, so mommy can't let you go either. Are you punished?
-Yes.
-What did you do, son?
-Nothing, mom.
-Son... You must have done something wrong to be punished.
-I disobeyed grandma. I ran and crossed the street to go alone to the playground.
-Ah, that is explained. My love, you cannot do this. You have to listen to grandma. It is dangerous to cross the street alone.
-But I wanted to go play.
-I know, son. But, you have to wait for mom or grandma to take you. You can't go alone. Don't do this anymore, okay?
-OK.
-Alex! - Tamara heard Irene say - Who are you talking to?
-With mom.
Irene took the phone from his hand.
-Hello love, I'm sorry. He took out my cell phone and I didn't see it.
-No problem love. I'm not busy right now.
-That boy is very naughty. He needs punishment every day.
-Calm love. This is just a phase. It will happen.
-And do you know what he did today?
-Yes. He told me. I told him it is dangerous.
-Imagine if something happens, love? My mother almost had a heart attack.
-I can imagine. Good thing nothing happened.
-Love, do you think I was wrong to punish him?
-No, love. It has to learn somehow. But try to stay calm, because otherwise he will be more rebellious.
-More than it already is? Impossible.
-He called to ask permission to go to Joana's house. I didn't know anything and I allowed it. I only found out the punishment because I told him to ask for her permission.
-You see? He is disobeying a lot.
-Yes. But, maybe it's because he's trying to get your attention. He called me because he knew he would listen. He must be jealous of Ruth.
-Well it could be. Since I was sick these days, I had a fever and I spent a lot of time alone with her.
-Yes love. He misses the affection. Stay with him for a while, talk, play. Then he will see that you also care about him.
-I'll do that. Later I say that the punishment has ended and I have a movie session in our bed with him.
-It is ok sweetie. He will love it. Let him sleep with you.
-I will, yes. Tam, thanks again. Once again you are saving me from afar.
-You're welcome dear. Just calm down and think a little.
-You keep me calm. Listening to you is my best therapy.
-I love you, love. Just a few more days and I will fill you with kisses.
