At night.
Becca was lying on her bed, reading a fairy tale book in her hand.
"The beautiful princess and the prince are married, and they live together very happily."
After reading this, Becca put down the book sullenly and complained unhappily, "Why do fairy tales end like this, it's boring." ” Becca turned her little head to look at her father, who was sitting on the edge of her little bed, with a robot-like expression on his face, and asked, "Dad, fairy tales are boring, don't you think?"
Becca's face bulged, but she didn't get any response from her father.
Why didn't Dad speak Becca lifted the covers and crawled to his side, slipped under his armpit into his arms, hugged his neck and kissed her father on the cheek, then watched as her father laughed silly.
"I kissed my dad secretly, it's super fun hee hee" He chuckled, reached out and rubbed the back of Becca's head and asked, "Don't read the story anymore" Becca said sullenly, "Dad, didn't you hear me say I don't like the exact same story, Hmph, Dad, I hate your disobedient ears." ” He couldn't laugh or cry: "What is the disobedient ear?"
Becca reached out his fleshy little hand to pinch his ear, and the other little hand pinched his other ear, and said with a bulging face, "That's them, they're disobedient ears." ” "Silly girl."
He took one of his daughter's small hands, leaned over and put the daughter in his arms back on the bed to put her to sleep, and then pulled the cute cartoon quilt over her body.
When he put her in order, he said, "It's late, go to bed." ” Becca's little hand was taken out of the bed, grabbed her father's big hand and put it next to her pillow, buried her little head in his palm and said coquettishly, "I want you to sleep with your arms in your arms, Dad." ” His padded hand gently stroked Becca's weak face, "Becca, have you forgotten what Dad told you?"
Becca pouted unhappily: "Dad, you said that I am three years old, and I have to learn to sleep alone and eat by myself, and I am willing to promise Dad, but I dare not sleep alone, because I am so afraid that I will have nightmares and be eaten by the devil." ” Becca cried in fear as she spoke, "William said he had a friend who died because he had a nightmare, and then he was sucked up by the vampire in the nightmare, and I was so scared of my father."
"Don't be afraid, Daddy is here."
He reached out his other hand to pat little Becca's chest that was bouncing in fear, leaned down and kissed little Becca on the cheek.
He got up and looked at little Becca with a calm and pitying gaze.
Becca was his first child, but he knew a little bit about educating young children before he had Becca.
He knew that the child had just slept separately from his parents, and he would definitely cry and refuse.
He also knew that the best thing to do as a parent in this situation was to pretend that he didn't see anything, let her cry, and let her make trouble.
When she cried for a few days and found that she had nothing to fear when she slept alone in a room, she would no longer pestering to sleep with him.
But he really couldn't bear it.
Reluctantly walked out of Becca's room and let her get used to the long dark night without him.
Every word Becca said, the fear in Becca's heart, he felt it.
It was as if his baby daughter would really be killed by the vampire in the nightmare after he was gone, and he would never see his daughter again.
It made him nervous. oshow7 t1706231537:
