The 次 morning.
Zoey was talking with the mortician, while Alexia was watching cartoons. At least Zoey was under the impression Alexia was watching cartoons. Until her little girl let out a shriek.
“Mommy!”
Zoey, scared something had happened to Alexia, jumped up and ran into the sitting room. Alexia was staring at the screen.
“Lex, what’s going on? あなた almost gave mommy a ハート, 心 attack” Zoey 発言しました and swallowed a few times to calm down.
“Mommy, come look” Alexia 発言しました breathless. “Uncle Emmanuel is on TV”
Zoey rushed to the テレビ and increased the volume.
“Last night the police arrested a man named Castiel for the abuse of a four 年 old girl” the newsreader said.
“Alexia, go play outside” Zoey 発言しました trembling.
“Why do they call him Castiel, mommy? His name’s Emmanuel” Alexia 発言しました confused.
“Now!” Zoey yelled and Alexia ran outside.
