Alyssa smiled, "Not your shift?" Chris shook his head.
"I took a break."
"Oh. Alrighty," Alyssa said, turning her attention back to her daughter. "She is beautiful."
Chris and Alyssa sat on the bench, making small talk about the weather, work, movies.. Hannah toddled over to them and pulled on Alyssa's overalls, making her quickly conscious about the way she dressed. She put on an embarassed smile, and pulled Hannah into her lap.
"Hungry?" Hannah shook her right hand, "Thirsty?" She cooed happily. It was almost like a signlanguage the two had worked out. Right hand means no, cooing is usually yes, or she's just happy. When she'd bounce her legs and screw up her nose, she wanted her diaper changed, and clenching her fists, pulling her legs up to her chest was gas.
Chris watched with longing in his eyes as Alyssa gave Hannah the sippycup, letting her hold on to it herself. Alyssa tipped the cup up slightly to start the flow, and Hannah sucked.
"I don't mean to brag," Alyssa said, keeping her attention on Hannah, "But I don't know too many 10-month-olds who can do this." Alyssa indicated to Hannah, who had pushed the juice away and started to toddle back to the sandbox. Chris shook his head. "I mean, usually they don't start walking like that until they're about two."
