Ouch, that hurts!

Tears welled up in Maya’s eyes as she forced herself to endure the pain. Three seconds later, however, she burst into a loud wail and started crying.

Nicole quickly dashed over. Picking Maya up and dusting the mud off her face, she asked worriedly, “Maya, are you hurt? Do you feel any pain?”

Plaintively, Maya pointed at her flabby arm and her thick calves before gesturing at her chubby cheeks. “Mommy, am I going to be disfigured?”

Nina squatted down and looked carefully at the wound on her face. “No! You don’t have to worry with me around. If you do become disfigured, I’ll be able to draw an even prettier face on you.”

Hearing this, Maya felt reassured. She wiped away her tears and turned abruptly to Nina. In a serious voice, she insisted, “I’m pretty even now.”

“You are! Maya’s the prettiest girl on earth.”

After being consoled by Nicole for a while, Maya finally broke into a smile.

Looking at the flowers in the garden, Nina exclaimed with sparkling eyes, “I say! These are the prettiest flower beds I’ve ever seen.”

Turning to look at Nicole, she said, “Mommy, can I pluck one flower to wear in my hair?”

Nicole thought for a while before answering, “Yes, but just one, alright? Don’t go overboard.”

“Yes, Mommy.”
