Grace, relived that she still had a job took the children upstairs to get them ready for bed. She bathed all three children,helped them brush their teeth, and dressed them for bed. Then she read their favori bedtime story, Good Night Moon,took them to their rooms, and kissed them good night. When she was finished, she walked downstairs to help Kai clean up the kitchen.
After the children were in their beds, Michael went to Kiss them goodnight and to talk to Paris.
"Paris?"
"Yes, Daddy?"
"Come here, Princess. We need to talk.", he said.
She walked over to him and he picked her up and sat down in the rocking chair. He set her on his lap and sighed.
"Paris, why did toi leave the house today without permission? toi almost gave me a cœur, coeur attack."
"Because I ran away, Daddy.", she a dit sadly.
" toi ran away? Why?"
"Because Prince hates me."
"Why do toi think that, baby?"
"He told me that he wished that I would disappear and never come back because I told on him."
"Why did toi tell on him?"
"Because we were playing in the living room and he jumped on the canapé and broke the picture on the table, so Grace punished him."
"Well, she was right doing that, but toi should have been punished too, young lady because toi know better don't you?"
"Yes, sir."
He sighed deeply and ran his hands through his hair.
"Paris, please don't do what toi did today ever again. Can toi promise me that toi won't run away again? If I ever Lost toi again, I don't know what I would do."
"I promise, Daddy."
"You know now that I have to punish you, right? I don't want to do this, but tomorrow toi can't play in the playroom. I want toi to stay in your room and think about what toi did, okay?"
"Okay, Daddy."
"As for Prince, he's in trouble too and he has to stay in his room too tomorrow. Its getting late and toi better go to lit now."
"Good night, Daddy.", she a dit and kissed him on the cheek.
"Good night, my little Princess.", he a dit and kissed her on the cheek.
Then he left her room and went to talk to Prince. He told Prince that he was in trouble for playing in the living room. Like he had been with Paris, he was very calm and he did not raise his voice ou threaten to beat him. Prince listened to everything that his father had to say and accepted his punishment without protesting. Then Michael kissed his son good night and left the room.
After Michael had left, Prince snuck out of lit and went to talk to Paris. He opened her door and closed it behind him. Then he walked over to her bed.
"Psst Paris?", he whispered.
"What?", she a dit sleepily rubbing her eyes.
"I need to talk to you."
"Can it wait until the morning? I'm sleepy."
"I tried to tell toi this-", he began.
"Why are toi talking to me anyway? I thought that toi hated me."
"I don't hate you. Well, I do hate toi sometimes because toi drive me crazy and toi get me in trouble-"
"Well, I hate toi too because toi are bossy and toi always try to tell me what to do.", she retroted.
"Let me finish please."
"Fine."
He sighed and said,"But toi are my little sister and I'm s'pposed to l’amour you."
"Okay I l’amour toi too even if toi are bossy."
"I'm going to get out of here before Grace ou Daddy catches me. Good night, Paris."
"Good night, Prince."
After he had left the room, Paris sighed and went back to sleep.
