"No, don't touch that," Solar told Sky as she set down a plate of cut-up barbeque chicken and macaroni for her. "It is very hot."

Sky stared at the candle on the table and pulled her little hand back. "Hot."

"Yes, very hot, do not touch it," Solar repeated as she turned to grab her own dinner.

The two were having a little candlelight dinner, which Solar was already regretting just moments after lighting the candle. Even though it was in the middle of the table, far out of the baby's reach from her high chair. Sky tried her hardest to reach for the colorful flame that was changing color as it burned.

"Eomma!"

"Yes," Solar called over her shoulder, as she smeared a little garlic butter on her steak. "Are you eating?"

"Hot," Sky told her.

Solar turned and smiled at the baby who was pointing at the candle. "Yes, it's very hot, don't touch it."

"No touch," Sky nodded staring at her bright yellow fork with a smile, gripping it tightly to attempt to use it before staring at Snoopy, who was at the candlelight dinner with them, wearing a bright red tie with a piece of lettuce, and a carrot on the plate in front of him. "Snoop chicken," Sky said quickly when Solar sat down next to her and broke apart her chicken a little more.

"He has his dinner," Solar smiled. "He doesn't like chicken, he likes lettuce, so Eomma made him special lettuce."

"Snoop," Sky shook her head quickly. "Chicken."

Solar, who wasn't going to waste food on a stuffed animal shook her head. "He told me when I was cooking. He doesn't like chicken," She shrugged at her daughter, who was staring intently at her. "He likes lettuce, and wanted a carrot."

Sky stared at Snoopy angrily before waving her fork around while babbling angrily while yelling at him. Solar was able to make out the word chicken over and over while she ate her dinner and laughed slightly as she eats a forkful of her side salad.

"Eat your chicken," Solar told her with a smile, helping her position her fork in her hand. 

The baby mumbling a thank you before stabbing her macaroni and managing to get it in her mouth. Solar smiled at her and opened her mouth to say something when Sky suddenly reached over and pushed Snoopy out of his chair.

"Chicken!"

"Hey, hey," Solar frowned, standing up and picking up the stuffed animal. "Be nice."

"Chicken!" Sky mumbled glaring at Snoopy when Solar set him back in the chair and sat back down.

"No, you don't push Snoopy, he doesn't have to like chicken," Solar told her. "He's your friend, say sorry."

Sky shook her head no quickly before stuffing more food in her mouth. Solar quickly pulling out some of the food so the baby won't choke. She sighed at her daughter and picked up her plate, moving to sit by Snoopy, kissing him on the nose. "So, Snoopy, how about we watch a movie tonight?" Solar smiled, placing her arm around the stuffed animal, and whispering in his ear, laughing loudly after holding her ear to his mouth, pretending that he was replying to her. Sky is frowning and watching them closely as her big brown eyes filled with tears, her bottom lip quivering.

"Eomma," She sniffled quickly.

Solar raised an eyebrow at her daughter. "Are you ready to apologize to Snoopy?"

"No," Sky shook her head.

Solar shrugged and wrapped her arm around Snoopy, kissing him on the nose, as Sky sniffled loudly and choked on a sob. "My Snoop."
