Alice Robinson spoke softly, "Mom... when did Mommy ever say that?"
Rachel tilted her head and said, "That day... the day Uncle... Uncle came..."
Rachel, still learning to speak, struggled with many words, yet at this moment, she could speak so clearly.
At this moment, Alice Robinson put down the Barbie doll in Rachel's hand, picked Rachel up onto her lap, and seriously explained to Rachel, "Sweetheart, you got it wrong... Mommy never told you that Uncle is Daddy... Uncle is just Uncle, he is Mommy's brother, he's not Daddy..."
Rachel let out a long "Oh" and looked down in silence.
"What's the matter?"
Rachel lifted her long, fan-like eyelashes, looked at Alice Robinson unwaveringly, and naively said, "Mommy... I like... Uncle..."
Alice Robinson was quite puzzled, "Why is that?" Haven't the wimpy kid and Chester Robinson only met twice?
Rachel shook her head, unable to explain.
Alice Robinson asked, "Did your Uncle say something to you?"
Rachel still shook her head.
