The Kids

Written by Michelle

Cindy and Dax were sitting at their little table drawing pictures with crayons.

*Look at my cow,* Dax said telepathically to her twin, pointing at the picture.

Cindy giggled and looked over at her sister's picture.

*Pretty! Do you like my giraffe?*

*Yeah! Nice giraffe!*

"Toooommmm!" Joshua complained. "Tom! I dun wanna play hidenseek no more! Mommy, Tom won't stop hiding from me!"

Julie really, really wished that Dee Dee hadn't taught B'Elanna and Tom that game. Thie stealth power made them pretty much impossible to find - and then they would get bored waiting and get up to mischief.

"B'E's over there," Tinga offered helpfully, pointing.

"Aww, no fair Tinga," B'Elanna objected.

"Help me find Tom?" Joshua asked Tinga hopefully.

Tinga got up from the toy piano that she had been playing rather well for someone for her tender years.

"Okay," she agreed.

Julie smiled with relief and went back to work. Of all of them - the nannies included, Tinga was the one most likely to find her elder siblings.
