The Promise Part Three |
Once the plane took off, Rebecca was having a hard time sitting still. First she tried putting her feet under her so as to lift her bottom off of the seat. That only worked for a minute and then her foot would fall asleep. There were still tears falling down her cheeks. She would sniffle and quickly wipe them away. Troy would sneak a glance at her. He really hadn't liked spanking her, but felt at this time he had no other choice. If she had chosen to throw a fit on the plane, spanking her wouldn't have been an option so it was best to take care of it before hand. Trying to still find a comfy spot in which to relieve her stinging bottom, Rebecca finally scrunched down in her seat, lifting her feet and resting them on the back of the seat in front of her, while her head and back took up her chair with her bottom dangling in mid air. Troy thought it was cute but he just had to ask anyway. "What are you doing little mate?" he asked watching her in amazement. "I'm giving my bottom a rest. It's very worn out," she stated in the most serious tone that an eight year old could muster. "Would you like to sit on my lap and have me read you a story?" Troy asked. Rebecca just looked at him in surprise, but didn't answer. She then looked away. "Rebecca?" he again asked. "I'm not talking to you right now," she stated as she did Itsy Bitsy Spyder on her fingers. "Ohhh, I see. Well how long are you not talking to me for,? he asked. "Till I'm not mad at you any more," she stated as she continued her finger game. Ohh ok. I'm just glad it won't be forever because I'd miss you talking to me very much," Troy replied. She stopped her game and looked at Troy. "I don't know, but its gonna be a very very long time," she replied as she unraveled herself from her position, placed her knees on the floor, rested her elbows in her seat and continued her game, making sure her bottom didn't touch anything. Just then one of the airline attendants approached. "Goodevening sir. I saw your little girl and wanted to let you know that we are going to be reading to the kids over in the corner. Would it be ok if she joined us?" she asked. "If Rebecca wants to go listen, then she may." The airline attendant bent down to her level to ask. "Would you like to go read with us?" she asked Rebecca looked at Troy and then at her. She stood up, took her hand and walked away.While she was being intertained Troy took a few minutes to reflect on the past few days. Was this right taking her so far away from everything that she had known. What if she didn't do well in Australia. He also worried about the influence she would have on his three very small children. Rebecca would no longer be an only child. She would now have brothers and sisters. Troy knew she had never been spanked and he hoped that this one time was all it would take. A few minutes later she brought Rebecca back. "Is everything ok?" asked Troy. "Ohh yes sir. It is time for dinner so I brought her back to you," she replied. Troy breathed a sigh of relief. So far so good. "Did you like the story," he asked, but Rebecca didn't speak. "Still not talking to me?" he asked. "Nope. I don't talk to big bad spanko meanies," she replied as she once again sniffled. "Rebecca. You don't have to talk to me if you wish not to, but naughty little girls get their bottoms spanked," he scolded. With that Rebecca gave Troy quite a glare. Her trance was broken by dinner being placed in front of her. She stared at her plate and decided even though it looked good, she wasn't going to eat. She once again placed herself in an akward position and kept bumping her tray. "Rebecca, you have to sit up and eat your dinner." She remained silent and kept playing. She once again bumped her Tray, almost dumping it. Troy new she needed to eat and decided to try once more before asking the attendant to remove the tray. "Rebecca, sit up and eat your tea, right now! he scolded. "Nooo! she said in a quiet voice so as not to be heard by any one other than Troy. "Rebecca," Troy said as he leaned over and whispered in her ear. "What happens to naughty girls? Rebecca's eyes got big. She quickly sat up and without protest, started to eat her dinner. Would he really do that again? she thought. She then looked at Troy and decided to just eat her dinner. Rebecca slept through the night and was pretty well behaved the next morning. She had made friends on the plane, and Troy felt was a good thing. It got her mind off of her loss for a few minutes anyway. Soon it was time to take their seats for landing. Troy was glad to be home and to have this trip over for he truly missed his wife and children. Little did he know the fun was just about to begin. |
