Busted
Jackie was awoken in the middle of the night. She heard a voice downstairs and also a noise that went thump thump. Her heart raced as she reached for her phone on the nightstand. She was just about to jump out of bed and run to her children's room when she heard the voice again and realized that she recognized the voice.
"What in the world?" she thought to herself.
She got out of bed and quietly went downstairs and into the kitchen where the voice was coming from. Jackie stood silently watching what was going on. Jasmine was reaching with all of her might for a pack of cookies on the cupboard, her new puppy and apparent partner in crime Dolly watched intently as she wagged her tail, as the tail smacked the floor it made a thump thump sound, the samenoise Jackie had heard upstairs.
"The joke is on her, they aren't opened." Jackie thought with a smile.
To Jackie's surprise Jasmine managed to reach the pack of cookies. Just as she was about to pull them off the cupboard Jackie said
"Jasmine Nicole."
"Uh-oh." Jasmine said as she let go of the cookies and turned around.
"Hi mama." Jasmine said with a cute grin.
"Hi Jazz." Jackie said.
"Hungry." Jasmine explained, still grinning like the cat that ate the canary.
"You're hungry? Do you want an apple?" Jackie asked knowing what the answer would be.
"No, cookie." Jasmine said, looking at Jackie like she had lost her mind.
Jackie laughed, she couldn't help it, the look on Jasmine's face was too much.
"I'll get you a small glass of milk, and you can have one cookie with it, and then you're going back to bed." Jackie said sternly as she went to the cupboard and got her a tiny
glass.
Jackie poured the milk and opened the box of cookies. She got a napkin and laid one cookie on it, grabbed the milk and took everything over to the table where Jasmine was waiting patiently.
Jasmine smiled "Tank ooh." She said gratefully when Jackie set the snack on the table in front of her.
"You're welcome." Jackie said.
Jasmine looked down at the floor and noticed Dolly was looking at her.
"Dawly cookie?" Jasmine asked Jackie.
"No sweetie, Dolly can't have a cookie, they're chocolate, they'll make her sick." Jackie said.
"Sorry Dawly." Jasmine said sounding genuinely sad for the puppy.
"How about if I give Dolly a doggy cookie?" Jackie said.
Jackie went over to the cupboard where they kept the dog treats. Dolly knew where her treats were kept and when she saw which cupboard Jackie was at she raced to Jackie's side. Dolly's tail worked double time as she waited for Jackie to get the treat out of the bag.
"Here you go Dolly." Jackie said as she handed the cute little puppy her treat.
Jackie looked at Jasmine, Jasmine had a smile on her face.
Jasmine ate her cookie and drank her milk and then Jackie tucked her back into bed.
"Nigh Nigh mama." Jasmine said.
"Goodnight Sweetheart. Mommy loves you" Jackie said as she walked out of the little girl's room.
Jackie then crawled back into her own bed.
"Kids." Jackie thought to herself with a smile as she drifted back to sleep.
