Harsh Words from Woody

From the family room I could hear whimpers. It was just Lauren, and with no Abigail in sight I knew it was either her thoughts or the movie that had put my Tiny in a somber mood.

I called in to my movie watcher, "Lauren, are you crying?"

"Yes," she replied burying her head into the floor. "Don't see me!"

Curious, I got down on the floor and asked, "Is the movie making you sad?"

"Yes. I don't like this part."

I could hear Woody's voice-over as Buzz was sadly climbing a rail, "Buzz, you can't fly."

Weeping, Lauren exclaimed, "This part makes me sad."

Who knew she was so emotionally connected to the cinema.
