Chapter 5: "Dinner for Two: No Children, Granparents, or Uncles Allowed"
We have to watch out for Wednesday now. She started walking the other day. So we have to watch her by the stairs. She may end up like me and tumble down the stairs.
"Mommy! Mommy! Hold! Hold!" she says as she runs in the bedroom.
"Hello, Wednesday." I said picking her up.
"Mommy, I learn a new word!" she exclaimed.
"What?" I asked.
"Bwother!" she sai
My heart then skipped a beat. Could that mean she want's a baby brother?
"Well... that's nice dear." I said.
"Daddy let me play him trains!" she said.
"Oh he did?" I asked.
"They went boom! pow! crash!" she said.
She's starting to be less perky, but not much I guess. Well, she's a baby.
"That's nice dear. Why don't you go play with Kitty and give mommy a break." I said, hopeing she wouldn't take it hard.
"OK!" she said running out the door. "Kitty? Where are you?"
I laid down and took a nap. About 4 hours later Wednesday came in and woke me.
"Mommy! Mommy! Mommy! Mommy! Mommy!" she said jumping on the bed.
"What, darling?" I asked sleepily
"Daddy want you." she said.
I went downstairs to see Gomez standing there.
"Tish, when's the last time we went on a date?" he asked.
"When we went to see 'Death of a Sales Man'." I said.
"Oh, yeah. I proposed that very night." he said.
He began to put his arms around me when we heared a giggle from upstairs.
Daddy love mommy and mommy love daddy!" Wednesday said.
We couldn't help but laugh. It was one of the cutest things she's done.
"Yes, that's right." I said.
"Cara Mia, will you go to dinner with me tonight?" he asked.
Of course I said yes. So we asked Mama and Uncle Fester if they'd watch Wednesday tonight. They said yes of course.
This is one of the most beautiful things Gomez has done for me. Other than us having Wednesday. He took me to an itallian resterant. We got spaghetti. one plate though. We planned on sharing it. It went wonderful. When we were on our way home, we thought about Wednesday.
"Remember the day Wednesday was born?" Gomez asked me.
"How could I forget? Remember, I fell in the conservatory?" I asked.
"He looked at me funny and said, "When was that?"
"The day Wednesday was born. I had a extreamly painful contraction, scremed and fell." I said.
"Ah. Now I remember! You screamed so loud, it could be heard from outside." he said.
We finally arrived home and when we got in the door, Wednesday came running towards us.
"Mommy! Daddy! Mommy and daddy home!" she said running into Gomez's arms.
Now we are in bead. Wednesday got her own room and bed. No longer a crib. Soon though, I hear the faint cry of her.
"Mommy! Mommy! I scared! I scared!" she was trying to scream.
I got up and tried to run, with little to no sucsess. When I got there, she was tossing and turnning. Having a good dream no dought.
"Mommy! I can't scream!" she cried.
"Wednesday! Calm down! Wake up! Hush." I said. sitting on her bed.
I began to rock her and stroke her hair.
"It horrible, mommy!" she said crying.
Tears rolled down both our cheeks. Her tears were soaking my nightgown.
"Witch died! Got pushed into the oven!" she cried.
Mama may have told her the story "Hansel and Gretal."
"Do you want to sleep with mommy and daddy?" I asked her.
She nodded, so I carried her in our room and put her in the middle. Gomez woke up one minuet, smiled and went back to sleep. We (Wednesday and I) fell asleep in probably 2 minuets.
