"Cruella!" Ursula yelled from the sitting room, "The little beast won't stop crying."
A small screech pierced the air as Cruella approached, "Well perhaps if you didn't refer to her as a beast she would take to you more kindly, darling." She reached down a gently picked up the child from Ursula's arms, "She has a name, its Lily remember? You picked it."
"Yes, well that was before she became a tiny devil." Ursula said as she watched Cruella soothe the wailing child, "Now, every time I even come near her she whines, I don't know what I did wrong, but I would like to be able to hold her and not feel unfit as a mother."
Cruella glanced toward Ursula, the woman she had once known as strong-willed and immovable, "She does like you, dear, she knows it's you who hums to her when she wakes up in the middle of the night, and you makes the faces when she eats, but she also enjoys being around her other mother and she might just miss me sometimes.", she lightly whispered to her disheartened lover, "You are a good mother, Love, you just have to have more patience. You'll see, Lily …" the child feeling ignored begins to coo, interrupting Cruella.
Ursula smiles slightly and stands walking towards her lover, "Lily, is a little beast", she grinned, "a little beast with a grand heart ready to love, and she just doesn't know how to use it."
"Exactly, Darling." Cruella chuckled and passed the child back to Ursula, "You are exactly right."
