A pancakey morning
She was still, it was going to happen really soon. Her Mama would come bursting through her door any second and that was when she was allowed to come out of her room.
Soon, the second came. One loud knock on her door, two, three, and then her mama opened the door.
”Jessie? Happy birthday.” She sweetly said, sitting next to her daughters bed. ”Wanna have a delicious birthday breakfast? I made pankaces!”
Jessica shot up at that, the tiny tiredness that was left, completely gone. ”I want pancaces.” She said, grinning excitedly while jumping out of her bed, heading for the kitchen with her Mama.
Jessica grinned as she saw the table with presents and rushed to a really big one. ”Can I open it? Pleaaase?” She asked, putting on her best pouty-face.
”Okay.” Willow said, smiling. ”But just this one, then we eat, and then you get to open the rest, okay?”
”Okay.” The girl said, carefully unwrapping the paper surrounding the present.
”I think I know what it is!” She mumbled. ”It’s, it’s.. it’s a box..” She said, a little disappointed.
”Sweetie, you have to open it.” Willow grinned sheepishly at her daughter.
Jessie blushed and quietly opened the box. When she saw what was in it, she gasped. ”Is it?” Willow nodded. ”And it’s mine?”
”All yours.” She grinned.
”Yay! A real keyboard! Thank you, thank you, thank you!” Squealed the girl, rushing to her mother to hug her.
”You’re welcome. Let me take a picture of you.” She smiled, holding up the camera, watching Jessie grin. ”Done. Okay, let’s eat, my belly really needs yummy delicious pancakes right now.” Willow babbled, and Jessie giggled at her.
”Mama, you’re silly. Your belly isn’t a person.” She giggled, while stuffing her mouth with a huge bite. She chewed it for a long time, and then finished with milk.
Willow laughed, grinning sheepishly at Jessie’s new milk moustache. ”Does Mr. Rosenberg want more pancakes?”
Jessie frowned, so the redhead took a small mirror and gave it to Jessie. She frowned for a few seconds before realising what it was. ”Oh, now I get it. I have a milky moustache, and that’s a guy thing. Hence the ’Mr’ thing. Right, mama?” The now 9 year old girl asked.
Willow nodded and took another pancake, and gave one to Jessie aswell. After breakfast and when all the dishes were done, Jessie opened the rest of her mothers presents.
She smiled all the time as she saw all the things she got. The things she got were; a new diary, a pair of blue paliette converse shoes, dark denim jeans, two movie tickets, a pink plectrum for her guitar, sparkling pencils, books, the newest shrek movie and little petshop figures.
Happy was an understatement. Jessie was completely in awe because of all her presents.
”Mama?” She asked, after all the present and candy paper had been swiped up and thrown away.
”Yeah, Jess?”
”Can I use my keyboard?” Jessie continued softly..
”Of course sweetie.” She answered.
There was a moment of silence. ”I thought you were going to play.” Willow asked.
”I don’t know how to plug in the keyboard or whatever you do. I’m just a kid you know.” Jessie said, didn’t her mother know that? ”I’m a big girl. But I’m still just a kid.”
Willow chuckled. ”Of course I’ll help you sweetie. Give me the mannuals and we’ll get started.” She said, following her daughter in to her room.
Only a few minutes later, Willow was already having a problem.
”What is it mama?” The young redhead asked.
”Well, I’ll know how to put all these thousands of cables together, as soon as I learn how to speak German..” Willow sighed. There should have been a translation to English, even though the keyboard was ordered from some super company in Germany.
Jessie frowned and grabbed the piece of paper from her mother. ”What does ‘Steck den roten Kabel in den silberner adapter rein, and blah blah blah.’ mean anyway?” Willow mumbled as she watched Jessie run away, still holding the manual.
Five minutes later she came back, saying ”It either means ’Put the red cable in the silver adapter, and plug the other end into the keyboard’ or that we have to clean the keyboard with a cat. I’m guessing it’s the first, right?”
”Yeah, makes sense.” Willow mumbled, doing what Jessie said, before once again looking at the manual, and turning the page.
Her face got a small dumbstruck look as she saw what was on the next page. ”Oh look, there’s a picture of what you’re supposed to do, and there is a translation to English. Now I feel kind of stupid.”
”Oh, um..” Jessie giggled. ”You didn’t look at the next page?” She asked, before getting a glare from her mother. ”Okay, so you’re done now?” She asked after a long quiet moment of shame from her mother.
”Yes, just let me put that thing into that thing and those other things into that aaaand, now it’s done.” Willow said, groaningly lifting the heavy Keyboard to it’s stand and pressing the ’on’ button.
”Okay Jess, now you can play as much as you want.” She said with a smile, and a bit of a back ache.
The little redhead grinned happily and pressed the ivories, getting to know her new, and seemingly awesome keyboard. She begun playing a sweet song she’d been taught a while ago, it was a really pretty song Jessie thought.
”That’s beautiful, Jessica. I think I’ve heard it before. Which song is it?” Willow smiled at her daughter.
Jessie’s every being was music, music and more music. Sometimes she wondered where Jessie got her musical talent from, it was certainly not from Willow ”the tone deaf that couldn’t hit a right note even if it stood in front of her” Rosenberg. Maybe Jesse was a closet prodigy or something.
”It’s ‘What are words”Jessie answered. ”Jenny Calendar taught me how to play it, and she said that I did it really, really well.” She went on, still keeping her focus on the keyboard.
”Do you want me to sing it?” She asked, looking up at her mother.
Willow grinned like crazy, nodding at her daughter. Jessie saw the not so subtle nod, and begun singing aswell.
”Anywhere you are, I am near?Anywhere you go, I'll be there?Anytime you whisper my name, you'll see?How every single promise I keep?Cuz what kind of guy would I be?If I was to leave when you need me most??What are words?If you really don't mean them?When you say them?What are words?If they're only for good times?Then they don't?When it's love?Yeah, you say them out loud?Those words, They never go away?They live on, even when we're gone??And I know an angel was sent just for me?And I know I'm meant to be where I am?And I'm gonna be?Standing right beside her tonight??And I'm gonna be by your side?I would never leave when she needs me most??What are words?If you really don't mean them?When you say them?What are words?If they're only for good times?Then they don't?When it's love?Yeah, you say them out loud?Those words, They never go away?They live on, even when we're gone??Anywhere you are, I am near?Anywhere you go, I'll be there?And I'm gonna be here forever more?Every single promise I keep?Cuz what kind of guy would I be?If I was to leave when you need me most??I'm forever keeping my angel close”
Jessie finished the song with a bright smile lightening up every inch of her face. ”Was I good?”
”Sweetie, you’re amazing.” Willow grinned.
The little redhead blushed and quietly said ”Thank you mama.”
”You’re very welcome.” Her mother answered.
After thinking for a few seconds, Jessie asked: ”Mama, is it true that if you eat mentos and drink coke at the same time, you’ll explode?” This had bothered the little girl for a long time. Was it true, or was it not.
Willow was a little put off by her daughters rather ”quirky” question. ”Well, um.. I don’t think it’s true. I think.” The redhead answered.
”Oh okay. Spencer told me that it was true. But I sooo knew it wasn’t mama, cause it isn’t. Right?” Jessie asked her mother, grinning like crazy.
”I honestly don’t know sweetie.” Willow quickly responded, before seeing Jessies small hello kitty alarm-clock showing that it was already 11 o’clock and standing up to say. ”Jessie, you have to get ready, Buffy, Xander and all the others will come to celebrate you today.
”Nathalia too?” Jessie asked, running over to her pile of all the new clothes she’d got to pick something out.
”Yes, and before you ask, yes she’s invited to your school party aswell.”
”Great. What do you think about these clothes, mama?” Jessie wondered, holding up a black puffy glitter skirt, silver leggings and a black/white leopard colored shirt.
”I think they would look stunning on little, er, sorry, big miss Jessica.”
Jessie giggled before carefully putting all of her clothes on her bed. ”I’ll put them on later.” She said, still smiling. ”Please, can I watch the new shrek movie now?”
”Of course, Jessiebell. You can watch it while I do the dishes, okay?”
”Okay mama.” She grinned.
