Kaila- Outside crying in what sounds like pain. She's obviously been hit/bit or had something unjustly stolen from her. .."AAAAAHHHHHH, AAAARRRRRRGGGGGHHH, AAAAAAAAAAAaaaaaaaaaAAAAAAAAAAAAA"
Josiah-Ignores her, a sure sign of guilt. He is holding a toy and rides a small bike past the back door where I am sitting, pretending like nothing's happening. There's no screaming 3 1/2 year old in the backyard. Sideways glance at me, eyes downcast..."uuuuu, Kaila?..."
Kaila- "AAAAAAAAAAHHHHHH, uuuuuuuuggggghhhhhhh, AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHH" Still sobbing uncontrollably with a hint of defiant anger against her brother.
Josiah- Glances nervously at me..."UUUm Kaila, Kaila, pretend you are crying because you love me so much..."
Kaila- "NO!!! AAAAAAAGGGGGHHHHHH....." begins to near the door where I am sitting.
Josiah- "Kaila! You want this toy now!?"
Kaila- Tears miraculously stop flowing immediately. She stops in her tracks. "Yes."
Life goes on.
