-Babysitting Mishap-
(Kade / Emma / Les / Callan)
When the twins heard the sound of their mother calling them, both eagerly toddled to the living room where they were greeted by several familiar faces. Les and Callen proceeded to kneel down to greet their grandchildren once they entered. Les, the older, gruff looking Squid, smiled happily as he picked up Emma.
“Oh, Emma. I’ve missed you so much.” He nuzzled the young child. “How’s my favorite granddaughter doing?”
Emma giggled in response when his fluffy mustache made contact as he kissed her mantle. She gently returned the hug and kiss before being set back down next to her brother. Kade held out his arms at the elder, and chirped for attention before being picked up by Callan.
“Oh, my sweet Kadren, it’s so nice to see you again.” She proceeded to peck him on the cheek and lightly pat his head before setting him back down with his sister. Kade chirped a few times to his grandmother before Les intervened.
“Ellie, don’t tell me he’s still chirping.” He spoke, “How will we be able to understand him if he needs something?” He looked at the toddler who then covered his mouth when he heard him say that.
“Dad, just because Kade isn’t able to speak like us, doesn’t mean he isn’t able to communicate in other ways. If he needs something, he’ll most likely point or lead you to what he wants to show you.” She picked up the small puff, and cradled him. “Isn’t that right, my little jellybean?”
“Cheep!! Cheep!” Kade responded and clutched on to the Squid with his wings.
“Bate and I will be back around 8.” Ellie handed off the toddler to Les while she was talking. “Lunch and Dinner’s in the fridge, and please make sure they’re in bed by 7:30.”
