In this little chapter Helen says her first bad word.
"Padre can you pass the noodles?" Itzel asked looking at Shawn. Shawn nodded and passed Itzel the bowl of noodles.
"So Helen how was school?" Juliet looked at Helen. Helen looked up at her mom and looked at Shawn.
"It was okay…" Helen whispered.
"No it wasn't she got in trouble," Itzel said sprinkling cheese on her noodles.
"What?" Shawn and Juliet said at the same time.
"It was all Eric's fault. He stole my pencil so I stomped on his foot," Helen explained.
"That wasn't nice," Juliet looked at her youngest daughter.
"No nice," Jayden said smiling at Shawn.
"That's right. Helen that wasn't nice," Shawn nodded at Jayden.
"Sweetie remind me to call Paisley later," Juliet told Shawn as she stood up and walked to the sink.
"Okay," Shawn said.
"Why?" Helen questioned looking at her parents.
"You're grounded," Juliet simply said with a nod from Shawn.
"For what!"
"You got in trouble at school so you aren't going to Jackie's party." Juliet grabbed a napkin and walked to Jayden.
"Then Imma say a bad word," Helen crossed her arms. Itzel stopped her fork halfway to her mouth, Juliet and Shawn looked at their daughter.
"You are?" Shawn asked daring her to speak with his eyes.
"Yes," Helen grumbled.
"You wouldn't," Itzel said.
"Yeah I would and a really bad one too. You'll want to throw me in jail."
"Jail?" Jayden repeated softly looking up and Juliet who was wiping his chin.
"Oh Jules call Uncle Lassie tell him to book a cell," Shawn joked.
"I'm serious, I'm gonna say it." Helen threated.
"Then say it," Juliet said placing a hand on her hip.
"Pumpkin Butt!" Helen yelled. Itzel started to laugh along with Shawn and Juliet, Jayden looked around confused.
"That's not a bad word squish," Itzel said laughing.
"Yes it is! Why are you laughing!" Helen demanded.
"Oh I've never heard that before," Shawn gasped through the laughter.
"That was gold," Itzel added.
"Oh Helen sweet little Helen," Juliet looked at Helen as she tried to stop laughing.
"What pumpkin butt?" Jayden looked around lost.
"Don't worry about it sweets," Juliet said picking Jayden up out of the high chair.
"But…" Jayden started then he stopped.
"Shawn deal with your badmouthed little girl as I put Jayden to bed," Juliet giggled walking down the hall.
"Oh Helen you have so much to learn," Shawn said picking up his fork and eating some pasta. Helen stood up and grumbled walking out of the room.
And can anyone name where the name Itzel called Helen came from?
