"Okay Zell-Zell, say Mama. Ma-ma," Valentina said to Zella who had just gone from crying because of her growing, aching tooth, to laughing.
"I didn't tell you to laugh, Zelly. Say Ma-ma."
She sighed in frustration when she just kept on laughing.
"Really Zell? I swear to God, if your first words are anything but Mama, you won't hear the end of it from me. I'll tell the story even on your wedding day, and trust me, there's nothing worse than a guilt tripping Mama."
Zella giggled again, and Valentina turned swiftly to Arthur.
"And you, Mr Luciano clone, what do you have for me today? Other than the fact you look so much like your father, ugh!"
As if he could hear her, he went on all fours on the bed.
"Look at you my giant!" She sprayed kisses of pride all over his face, and that seemed to excite Zella even more as her giggles doubled.
The door opened in the middle of their play, and Aurora walked into the room.
