Amry was, indeed, getting into trouble. The inquisitive girl had discovered that creating a stack of some play things and standing on a chair, she could climb onto the top of the mantlepiece over the safe guard in front of the fireplace. She stood on the narrow ledge, tightly grasping the wall with one hand. With the other she waved at Corvell who was staring at her with wide eyes. "Hi!" she giggled. She crept along the wall, using both hands for support. "I'm really high up!" She giggled again. Sticking her tongue out, she sat down, her short legs dangling over the edge. Then she waved again at Corvell. "You way down there!"

Zak hesitated. "Marola..." He stood for a moment, then walked out of the room to the nursery. Hannah sat with Cortell at a small table, cooing to the little baby. "Hannah, you can leave now. I'll take care of the kids." The old maid looked up at Zak and scowled. "Leave you with the children? Nonsense!" Zak held back his own scowl and looked at Cortell, his face turning soft. "Please, Hannah, let's not make a scene." The old maid scowled again and got up, stuffing Cortell in Zak's arms. Zak gave her a dangerous glare and held Cortell in his arms, touching his fuzzy hair. Zak went and sat down at the small table, looking over at Amry on the mantle. "So, what's your name?"

"Amry," she replied, and then giggled. "My mommy is talking with my friend. Pretty house." She giggled again. Then she looked around. "Wanna get down now."

Zak quickly got up and laid Cortell in his crib, then walked over to Amry. "Well, Amry, how'd you get yourself up there?" He grinned and picked her up, twirled her around, then set her on the ground.

Amry laughed and smiled up at Zak. "I climbed!" She pointed at the chair by the fire. "Amry smart!"

Zak laughed and tussled her hair a little bit. "Smart and cute." He went and sat back down at the table, looking over at Cortell, who was sleeping peacefully. "So how did you meet Marola?"

"Who's Marola?" Amry asked, tilting her head.

Zak gave her a strange look. "Marola...the woman who is with your mother? You don't know her name?"

"I know." Amry held her arms up to Zak. "Spin again! Wanna spin again!"

Cortell was watching from his cradle with wide eyes. He saw the man who always came with his mamma playing with the girl who was with him in his room. He started reaching out to the man, because he wanted to be picked up again. He started letting out a long stream of baby gibberish and squealing, a grin on his tiny face.
OOC: whoa...it's so weird writing from the perspective of a baby! lol. Hey, love your new sig, Freaky Stranger!

OCC: lol and thank you! I made it myself...hehehehehehe lol
Zak quickly got up from the table and went to Cortell. He looked back at Amry. "Hold on, I'll get to you in a minute." He picked Cortell up and held him close, his bright eyes making Zak smile. Your so cute...how are you so cute? Zak went over to Amry and picked her up with his one hand and spun around a couple times. "There. All better?"

Amry smiled and giggled, clapping her hands in joy. "Fun fun fun!" After a couple of minutes of spinning, Amry wantyed down. "I want my mommy," she said to Zak, her smile fading a bit.

Cortell laughed with the joy only an infant was able to experience. His blue-green eyes sparkled with a joy unlike any other. He squealed with pleasure as the man who followed his mother spun him and the older girl around. He heard the girl say something, and it sounded a little sad. He stopped laughing long enough and looked at her. Then he smiled at her, hoping that the smile would fix whatever was wrong. It always seemed to work for his mamma whenever she sounded sad.
