Don't go there

"She's really excited about the dress." said Dom as he laughed.

"Yeah, she really is, and she loves the dress. She hasn't even seen it properly and she's already thanking us." said Natasha as she laughed.

"Well yes, that's our daughter for us... she's really grateful, even over the little things." said Dom as he smiled.

"Oh she's just such an angel. I love her so much, and she's so cute, too cute for my own good." said Natasha as she laughed and shook her head.

"Yeah... let's just hope that she remains an angel and stays this cute." said Dom as Natasha frowned.

"What do you mean by that?" asked Natasha.

"Nothing it's just that Joy is obviously such a well behaved child, and I am certainly sure that not all parents are as lucky as we are... I just hope she doesn't grow out out of her good phase." said Dom.

"I don't think that she ever would. We are raising her well, to be grateful, compassionate and content, so you shouldn't worry about her growing into a disobedient phase. Besides, the both of us were not disobedient when we grew up, or at least not to the extent of not listening to our parents so I doubt that she would." said Natasha.

"I guess you're right, and I really hope so... but about that being disobedient part... I'm pretty sure that I've gone behind my parent's back to take something they told me not to." said Dom sheepishly as Natasha laughed.

"I know that, but I haven't." said Natasha as she laughed.

"Of course you haven't, you were an only child, your father got you everything you ever wanted." he said as Natasha laughed and shook her head.

"Not true at all, he could be very strict and disciplined when he wanted to be. I knew better than to disobey him well because there was only just me and him in the house, so if something got missing or was taken without his permission, it would be very easy to point it at me." said Natasha.

"And I always hated it when my dad got upset with me, so I rarely did things that made him upset." said Natasha.

"Ahh so you were the perfect child." said Dom as Natasha scoffed.

"Of course I was, you of all people know that." replied Natasha smugly as Dom scoffed.

"Right, last time I checked you had a strong knack for getting into trouble and you still do now." said Dom as Natasha scoffed at him.

"Hey, hey don't go there, I don't go looking for trouble, it goes looking for me, besides, that's not what we're talking about. As far as obedient goes, I was a very obedient child." said Natasha proudly as Dom laughed.

"Whatever you say Natasha, whatever you say, hopefully Joy will remain her cute, loving obedient self." said Dom as Natasha scoffed at him.

"Mommy, daddy!!! I hanged the dress in my closet so it doesn't get rumpled." said Joy as she rushed back into the living room and sat on the couch in between Dom and Natasha.

"That's great my darling." said Natasha as she smiled.

"I can't wait to wear it mommy." said Joy in excitement.

"Don't worry my darling, you're going to wear it soon I promise." said Natasha as she smiled and Joy smiled as her eyes moved to Natasha's hand where another shopping bag was.

"Mommy did you buy a dress as well?" asked Joy as Natasha nodded.

"Mhmm, actually I bought two." replied Natasha with a smile.

"Why did you buy two dresses mommy?" asked Joy.

"Well because I liked the first dress I bought which is yellow, but then this annoying woman insisted that I try out another dress so I bought the second dress which is red." explained Natasha.

"Ahhh okay mommy, can I see the dresses please?" asked Joy with a smile.

"Sure my darling." said Natasha as she smiled when Alfred suddenly walked into the room.

"Madam, young master, lunch is ready." he said with a smile, finding it hard to hide the fact that he was thrilled the whole family was here together talking and they seemed to be having a good time.

"Alright Alfred, thank you." said Natasha as she smiled and Alfred smiled before walking away.

"I will show you the dresses later my love, for now, let's go eat lunch." said Natasha as she stood up and Joy nodded and giggled as she ran out of the living room.

"I guess that we'll finish the story later then princess." said Dom as he stood up as he heard Joy's giggles in the dining room.

"Let me go put these away." said Natasha as she walked out of the living room and Dom followed after Joy.

The next day.

Natasha was busy working in her office where Lulu also happened to be seeing as she was also working on something on her laptop.

"Oh Natasha, what word rhymes with sight?" asked Lulu out of the blue as Natasha looked at her.

"I don't know, might, right, fight? A bunch of words actually." she replied.

"Ahhh, yes, yes, thank you for that." said Lulu as she quickly typed something on her laptop.

"You're welcome, why are you asking in the first place?" asked Natasha in curiosity.

"Well, I'm working on my assignment and for some odd reason I couldn't find words that rhymed with sight." said Lulu as Natasha was feeling even more confused.

"Okay I get that, but why would your assignment require you to use rhyming words?" asked Natasha.

"Oh it doesn't, I just wanted to see if I could incorporate some rhyming words into my paragraph." said Lulu as Natasha laughed and shook her head.

"I'm not even going to ask why, or what you're assignment is about, but I am very sure that the marker won't care if the words in the paragraph rhyme or not." said Natasha as she laughed.

"Oh of course they will. Just imagine they've been reading thousands and thousands of assignments by students which are bland and boring and then they finally mark mine which happens to rhyme, making them enjoy their time." said Lulu proudly as Natasha laughed at her poor attempt of a rhyme.

"Marking mine will be such a blast, since reading my paragraphs would be like singing a song." said Lulu as she smiled happily.

"Oh Lulu, of course only you think like that, I just hope that your paragraphs don't lose meaning with your attempt to make everything rhyme." said Natasha as Lulu laughed.

"No, no, they won't, I know what I'm doing." said Lulu smugly.

"Well alright then if you say so." said Natasha in amusement as she ran her fingers through her hair and sighed.

"What's wrong what's with the sigh?" asked Lulu instantly.

"Nothing's wrong Lulu, I'm just a little bit annoyed, my hair has grown in the past few months." said Natasha.

"Oh yes, I've noticed it, it's almost back to being the same length it was before you cut it." said Lulu with a smile.

"I know, and it's annoying me." said Natasha.

"How come?" asked Lulu.

"Well it's hassle to brush, I'm actually thinking of cutting my hair again, what do you think?" asked Natasha.

"No, no, no, no, no!!" replied Lulu instantly as Natasha was surprised.

"No?" asked Natasha.

"No, don't cut your hair!" said Lulu strongly as Natasha laughed.

"Why not?" asked Natasha as she laughed, she knew that she asked for Lulu's opinion but she had not expected such a strong rejection of her thoughts.

"Because I love your hair long, it's really pretty and your hair colour is so bright and mesmerising, it looked great when it was short, but it looks even better longer. It's like a red waterfall." said Lulu as Natasha laughed.

"I think that you're overexaggerating Lulu." said Natasha as she laughed.

"No I'm not, you seriously don't know how pretty your hair is. If I wasn't afraid of toxic chemicals, I would have dyed my hair the colour of your hair so we could match." said Lulu seriously causing Natasha to laugh. Lulu always said the funniest things.

"I'm dead serious Natasha, your hair colour is so lovely, and I don't think that you should allow your laziness stop you from rocking your lovely, lovely hair." said Lulu as Natasha laughed.

"Who said that I'm being lazy??" asked Natasha as she was far from offended.

"You said it yourself, it's a hassle to brush, it's also annoying for me to brush my hair in the mornings, but do I still do it? Yes! Because the price of looking this good does not come easy." said Lulu as she pointed to herself and Natasha erupted in laughter.

"So don't cut your hair please, it makes you look even more gorgeous than you already are." said Lulu sweetly.

"Aww thank you Lulu, I will consider your suggestion, but first I need to ask my other loyal counsellors." said Natasha playfully.

"Oh really? And who exactly are the others?" asked Lulu with a bit of jealously.

"Well of course you're number one, and also Chloe and most importantly my lovely girl Joy." said Natasha as Lulu laughed.
