“You’re the babysitter, remember? When I babysit, I don’t let babies leave the table until I’m done.” Jinny got out of her seat, and walked toward the living room, turning to give Brie a raised eyebrow.
It took Brie a couple seconds to read the prompt. “Come back here baby.” She commanded, once it registered. “Sit down and stay ‘der until I’m done.”
For a second, Jinny considered rebelling, but causing a big fight wasn’t the point; in fact, it was the thing she hoped to avoid. The point was to make Brie give up on her own. She took her seat once more.
When Brie had finally finished her food, she left her bowl in the sink. “Okay baby Jinny, you can go play now.”
Jinny got up. “I wanna play with blocks!”
