Olivia Runs Away

Naveen was in the kitchen, having coffee and reading the morning newspaper when he heard someone crying in the next room.

"I DID NOT DO IT!!" screamed a girl's voice.

Naveen's wife, Ariel, looked at him. "I am going, I am going." he said, as he put down his coffee and the newspaper down and went into the next room. There, he saw his daughter Olivia Flaversham with a toy fox behind her back. Her big brother Buster Bunny was standing behind her, and her little brother Skippy Squirrel was sitting on the floor, crying because Olivia hit him on the head with her toy.

"Olivia?" asked Naveen, "Olivia, did you just hit your brother, Skippy, on the head with your toy fox?"

"No!" Olivia replied rudely.

"Are you lying to me?"

"No!"

Naveen turned to his older son. "Buster?"

"She did it." Buster said.

"No one likes to tattle on other people." said Naveen, as Buster walked upstairs to his bedroom.

Naveen picked up Skippy and rubbed his back to stop him from crying. Then he turned to Olivia as he placed the squirrel in his playpen, saying, "All right, Olivia! Go upstairs!"

"NO!!" Olivia shouted.

Now Naveen was getting angry. "Olivia Flaversham, I am not gonna say it again! One..."

"Two..."

"I count!" Naveen shouted, "You do not count!"

"Three!" Olivia finished.

At that moment, Naveen angrily picked up Olivia and placed her on the couch for five minutes. "All right, that was it!" he said, "Nope, that was it! You are in a time-out! And you are not going to the carnival with Fievel tomorrow!"

Olivia became very angry. She glared angrily at Naveen and yelled, "YOU ARE AS EVIL AS RATIGAN!!!!"

Olivia then began to cry and ran away from home with angry tears in her eyes, slamming the front door. Naveen gasped, looking horrified. "Olivia, stop! Come back here!" Olivia did not listen. She ran away to her adoptive parents' house, where Bernard and Miss Bianca, Olivia's adoptive parents, are waiting for her at the front door. "Olivia!" Naveen called after him. Naveen's sadness came into his mind and began to cry with Ariel, Mickey Mouse, Melody, Iago, Buster and Skippy consoling him. "Oh, Olivia, what have I done to you? I didn't mean to get you mad at me and I didn't mean to make you run away from home like that." Naveen sobbed. "I'm sorry, Olivia. I'm so very sorry."
