Mummy has been sitting quietly for too long. She used to smile more, like that time at the park with Paul. Mummy pretended to be a big dragon trying to eat me, and Sir Paul rescued Princess Chloe! Mummy laughed and laughed.
I miss Daddy, but even more than that, I miss Mummy’s laughs. If Sir Paul comes back, maybe she’ll be happy again.
I see Mummy’s phone on the couch. I grab it and draw the zig zag with my finger like Mummy does. I find Paul’s name and type:
Dear Sir Paul,
I am safe but can you come over
and save the dragon? She has forgotten
how to smile.
Love Princess Chloe
I press send! Now all I have to do is wait for Sir Paul to come rescue my mummy from the dragon spell that is making her frown.
I run to Mummy. “Sir Paul is coming to save you!” I say.
Mummy looks confused
