Chapter Four
*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*
Quatre passed around the plates filled with food and everyone piled it onto their plates. "Daddy...what's that?" Deidre asked, pointing to the bowl of broccoli.
"It's broccoli." Duo answered.
"It looks like the tree at home." Deidre compared.
"Yes it does, but this is a tree you can eat." Duo said.
"I don't want to eat the tree." Deidre whined. "Let's go plant it in the yard!"
Quatre started laughing and Duo's face faulted. "D, this is a tree you can eat, not plant in the yard." Duo stated.
"So...it was made for us to eat?" She asked and Duo nodded, "I don't want to eat it then." She announced. Quatre had to leave the room because he was laughing so hard. Trowa and Milliardo tried to hide the smiles on their faces without much luck. Heero had too look away from Duo to keep himself from laughing, and Wufei had his head in the fridge while laughing.
"Deidre, you have to eat it." Duo stated. Deidre shook her head and crossed her arms across her chest. "You have too, its good for your eyes." Duo said.
"That's carrots Duo." Heero corrected.
"Oh.." Duo blinked a couple times.
Wufei walked over and put two pieces of broccoli on her plate, "If you eat them we'll go out for ice cream later." He said.
Deidre heaved a dramatic sigh, "Okay...I will." With that Trowa had to leave the room, followed by Milliardo.
"It's not that funny." Duo mumbled.
Heero placed a hand on Duo's shoulder, "Yes it was." Heero left to go get Quatre and everyone else. As he was leaving Deidre pick up a piece of broccoli and threw it at Heero's head. Heero turned around and glared at the little girl, who was staring innocently at her plate. He left muttering a few Japanese curses.
