Understanding Frankie
When I need things done, I used to sneak in Papa’s room while Frankie is still sleeping, so he thought that I went to work or school and would not bother me. He likes going through the table and what Ryan put in the drawer and rearranging them that freaks Ryan out. I also try to turn off the light, so he would think nobody is in Papa’s room.
Lately, Frankie has matured a lot and I am liking it so much. Now, if I am writing or doing my assignments, I leave the door open and he comes in to say hi and leaves me alone. He usually stay with my Dad outside and when he tells Frankie not to bother me because I am doing assignment, he nicely comply. I can hear him tell Papa that “mama is doing assignment for school.” Occasionally, he comes in to check on me or gives me a hug or let me kiss George but that is about it. I remember when I couldn’t even do anything because all I kept doing it calling out his name to leave things alone. My baby is surely growing up.
