The Bedtime

This somehow melted Mr. Eze's heart and then his wife said

"My love. You know I love you right. Okay, get up and go wash your legs in the bathroom and when you come back, I'll give you special care and attention. Do not mind me okay?" Mrs. Patience always had a way if sooth talking people out of their anger and she had just done this to Mr. Eze

He was speechless, he just got up, wiped his face and spat the water in his mouth on Beauty's legs. She exclaimed and turned to her mum for support but Mrs. Patience looked away and laughed as she couldn't contain it.

"Oh come on dad, what was that for?" Beauty was angry, as it seemed like it was no her turn to fume

"Ask me again" Mr. Eze didn't bother turning and he just went in his way.

"Mum?" Beauty called out as she turyti her mum to second her but her mum seemed to be looking for something she misplaced on the ceiling.

"Huh? Me? No o, please face your father" Mrs. Patience backed out amused and this left Beauy frustrated because her legs felt awful

"Fine dad, but why only me?" Beauty asked as though she could cry because she knew well that if she was to get punished in any way, Mrs. Eze deserved a share too

"Well, because she is my lovely, precious wife and backbone but you on the other hand are my….." Mr. Eze stopped abruptly and put his hand in his chin as he looked to the ceiling and acted confused

"Your what dad? I'm your what?" Beauty asked, very eager to hear a reply.

"Well, my… I guess I don't even know what or who you are to me" Mr. Eze stopped to say

"(Gasp) Oh really dad?" Beauty was surprised

"Yes, and I'm being very honest and serious with you here" Mr. Eze said this with no strings attached, just to tease Beauty

"Nice go dad. Way to go" Beauty said, betrayed and sarcastically

"Whatever sweetie, just know, you are cleaning up " Mr. Eze took joy and amusement from pissing Beauty off

"What!" Beauty exclaimed

"Yes, you and your mum pulled this stunt and you can't expect my lovely wife to clean up after you, can you?" Mr. Eze teased

"Oh wow! Being unfair I see and mum, you don't have anything to say" Beauty felt betrayed by Mrs. Patience as they were partners in crime

"Well, he has spoken and what can I do? What can I even say?" Mrs. Patience acted helpless, but she knew like everyone else tat she could help it

"It is not like that and I know that you are going in his support. Well, one day I would get married and have who support me too" Beauty said confidently as she folded her arms, looked away from them and turned her head upward

"Hahaha, well all I can say is till then" Mr. Eze found amusement and laughed at the factthat she was talking about marriage at her tender age

"Yes, laugh all you want " Beauty said uoset as she rolled her eyes at them

Mrs. Patience could not contain her amusement again, so they both laughed at Beauty as Mr. Eze goes to the bathroom and Mrs. Patience goes to sit on the mat and stretch her legs while Beauty still looks forward to starting the clean up.

"Oh no Beauty! You just washed your hands and you don't want to infect them again do you?" Mrs. Patience said reminding her cautioning her too.

Mrs. Patience had already washed hers.

"Yeah, that's true. So, when am I getting them dressed?" Beauty asked as she still had most of her focus on what she had been doing.

"As soon as possible. I am currently waiting on you. I am ready. I have prepared everything a while ago" Mrs. Patience said with her hands clasped together on her legs as she emphasized on that fact

"Oh really mum! Sorry, I didn't know. I would head down now" Beauty was genuinely ignorant of that and was apologetical.

She walks to Mrs. Patience and sits in a yoga posture.

She stretches her hand out and Mrs. Patience gets to work.

She applied pressure on it with a clean cloth,the cloth got stained in blood and she took it off and put another, this time three layers.

The bleeding stopped. She applied a Dettol antiseptic liquid for disinfection and then put a price of absorbable cotton in the Dettol and pressed it against the cut while she got a gauze and plaster and placed it nicely on it as she found out that it was cleaned dry and was no longer bleeding.

She kissed the finger and, said "All good, you can go now" Mrs. Patience made a voice up and used it, so as to perfect her act as a doctor and not as Mrs. Patience.

Beauty smirked mad replied " Oh gee! Well thanks a bunch doctor" She pretended to be overwhelmed

"There is no need for that, I like to keep it professional with my patients and make sure to do my job well" Mrs. Patience said with her made up voice

"Of course doctor, I understand perfectly well, but still, Thank you" Beauty said to tease her mum

They both chuckle and Beauty said

"I love you mum" She said this with so much emotional attachment. Clearly, she still has it in her mind that her mum would soon be gone forever. But good thing it did not get the best if her. And keeping true to her words, she didn't want it to.

"Well, can you guess how much I love you?

I love you more than and beyond the stars and the universe. I would die anything and I mean absolutely anything for my beautiful Queen " Mrs. Patience asked and replied her question herself, not giving Beauty a break to reply.
