As the day came close to the baby being born, the pain Melanie was feeling became intense. At times Tex would leave work early to take care of her. She wouldn't like it because she didn't want to keep him from working. However, his main concern was her and she understood.
"I'll be leaving work early. Let me know if anything happens."
"I will honey."
Not too long after Tex left for work, Melanie began to feel her baby and knew she was close to being in labor. She knew she had to call Tex and tell him to head home. She called Lynda and told her what was going on. Once Tex heard the news his wife was in labor, he rushed out and headed home as soon as possible.
As soon as Tex got home, Melanie was laying on the floor and holding her belly. The pain was overwhelming her and her belly was swollen. Tex held her tire and kissed her.
"You'll be ok sweetie." Replied Tex. His soothing voice began to overcome her, replacing the fear and pain she was about to endure. "I'm right here."
Melanie gritted her teeth and grabbed her belly. The baby was ready to be born.
Melanie began to push. Tex had a tire resting on her belly while she pushed. Melanie cried through the pain. She gritted her teeth harder and held her belly.
"Come on Melanie. Your almost there." Replied Tex. He wiped her forehood with a cool cloth and caressed her tire. She smiles at him and continues pushing. Melanie felt her baby coming closer and in no time her baby was born. The cries from the newborn baby filled the room and the nurse took care of Melanie and the baby girl. Melanie began to relax while her husband snuggled against her.
"You did it baby. I knew you could." Replied Tex. He kissed her fender and ran a gentle tire over her.
"Because you were there for me." Replied Melanie. She kissed him and rested a tire on his fender.
Soon, the nurse returned with the baby. She was wrapped up in a light pink blanket. She was given a bottle and a small stuffed animal. Melanie smiled and took her newborn daughter. She began to coo and purr.
"Aww she so beautiful. Hey beautiful girl." Replied Tex. He ran a gentle tire along his newborn daughter. She cooed and giggled happily. She cuddled next to him and began to purr. Tex signaled for Melanie to come closer and she did. They were all a happy family, but someone was missing and that was Sophia. However she didn't care anymore. She was determined to get her dad back and have him to herself.
Late that night, Tex and Melanie were bonding with their newborn daughter.
"She's so cute." Replied Melanie. "She's so little and her little tires are adorable."
"She's my whole world. I wouldn't want anyone else but her." Replied Tex and he gently nuzzled Fiona.
Fiona cooed and purred. Her little blanket covered her body. She was adorable and cute.
However late that night, Sophia would abandon her home and soon there would be panic, tears, anger, and reconciling that would have to be involved in this turbulent event.
When everyone went to bed, Sophia remained awake. She didn't like any of this at all. She saw her dad bonding with a child and a girl car that wasn't her own mother. She hated this so much and now her princess title was taken away from her.
"I'm the princess! I'm Dinoco's princess and I'm my dad's princess!" Sophia blurted out in anger and bursted into tears."
"It's time to make my move! He betrayed me so I'm betraying him!"
Sophia jumped to her wheels and collected her stuff. She had packed earlier so she could be ready when everyone went to bed. She decided to make it look like a kidnapping, even though she wasn't kidnapped. She messed up her covers and pillows until it looked professional style. However, she knew a better way as well. She headed downstairs to hunt for red paint. This was going to be used to make it look like blood was left behind. Heading back to her room with a can of red paint, Sophia splatters the paint on her covers, floor, and wall. She stood back to admire her professional work and with a smirk across her front, she headed downstairs and disappeared into the night.
The travel was rough, however Sophia didn't care. She wanted to be somewhere far from her family, even far enough from her town, community and home. She felt like she wanted to be isolated from everyone and everything that she was always surrounded by. Sophia soon figured out where she could go and headed for her destination.
