00:00Crimson, and Clover, and Violet.
00:03By You May.
00:05Once upon a time, there lived a spirited and curious six-year-old girl named Violet.
00:10She had black hair, her favorite colors were blue and purple, and she liked to wear overalls
00:15and headbands when she played outside.
00:18She had an insatiable desire to explore and discover everything around her.
00:23One sunny afternoon, as she played in the backyard, pretending to be a princess in a
00:28magical garden, she noticed her mother's cherished flower bed.
00:32The vibrant colors and delicate petals mesmerized her young eyes.
00:37Fascinated, Violet couldn't resist the temptation.
00:40The Princess of Petals needs these magic flowers to protect the castle from the bad guy!
00:46Violet narrated.
00:48With a mischievous smile, she plucked a few flowers, thinking they would look beautiful
00:52in her room, which doubled as the Princess of Petals' chamber.
00:56Unbeknownst to her, her mother had been watching from the kitchen window.
01:01As Violet skipped into the house, holding the pilfer flowers, her mother intercepted
01:06her at the door, wearing a concerned expression.
01:10Violet's heart skipped a beat as she realized she had been caught.
01:13Violet, listen carefully, her mother said, in a no-nonsense tone of voice.
01:18You're not allowed to take flowers without permission, even if they're from my garden.
01:23It's important to respect other people's belongings.
01:26I'm not angry, but from now on, the rule is, if you pluck any of mommy's flowers without
01:31permission, you will get a spanking.
01:33Do you understand, Violet?
01:36Violet's heart sank.
01:38She didn't fully comprehend the gravity of her actions, but she could sense the disappointment
01:42in her mother's voice.
01:44But mom, they look so pretty, and I just wanted to keep them!
01:48She pleaded, her voice filled with innocence.
01:51Her mother sighed, kneeling down to Violet's eye level.
01:55I know you thought they were beautiful, sweetheart, but taking something without permission is
01:59still not acceptable.
02:01It's called stealing, and it hurts others.
02:03Now, I want you to repeat after me so I know you understand the rule.
02:08If you pluck any more flowers without permission, you will get a spanking.
02:13Violet's eyes widened, a flicker of worry crossing her face.
02:17Then she thought about how being a princess means that you get to wear pretty dresses
02:21and do anything you want.
02:23Feeling grouchy and wishing she was a real princess, Violet repeated in a monotone voice.
02:28If I pluck any more flowers without permission, I get a spanking.
02:33Good girl, Violet.
02:35I forgive you, and you're not in trouble.
02:37Tomorrow, I'll take you to the park, and we'll look for wildflowers.
02:41You have my permission to pick some of those.
02:44Since Violet had already plucked the flowers, her mom put them in a vase and displayed them
02:49in Violet's room.
02:51Violet sat looking at them on her windowsill, but she didn't like them anymore.
02:56Why shouldn't she be able to pick all the pretty flowers she wanted?
03:00Princesses were the boss of everyone.
03:02If Violet were a princess, she would order the guards to spank mommy every day, and have
03:07all the flowers in the world put in her bedroom all at once.
03:12Violet knew what a spanking was because she had seen it in cartoons, and her nursery rhyme
03:16books had a couple stories with spankings in them.
03:20But Violet had never gotten spanked.
03:22It's because I'm a real princess, thought Violet.
03:26Real princesses never got spankings.
03:28They were like kings, only prettier.
03:32Violet spotted the flower garden from her window, and made her decision.
03:36The flowers on her windowsill were lonely, and she needed to have all the flowers in
03:40the world together in the princess chambers.
03:44Looking carefully around a corner, Violet noticed that mommy was busy doing the laundry.
03:49Violet snuck away and thought of her plan.
03:52If she only took one or two flowers, mommy would never notice.
03:56She would keep doing this every day until she had all the flowers, and then mommy would
04:01be happy that all the flowers were together.
04:04Violet dashed to the garden, and after arguing with herself about which flower was her favorite,
04:10she settled on a purple-pink flower, called an orchid.
04:13Then she picked a marigold, which was two.
04:16But she couldn't resist picking a violet, since they were her namesake, and since the
04:21violets were so small, she had to have five of them.
04:25Rushing through the front door, Violet grinned madly as she held the flowers in front of
04:29her, not wanting to take her eyes off them for a second.
04:33What have you got there, pumpkin? rang a deep voice.
04:37Violet jumped and hid the flowers behind her back.
04:40Daddy was home early.
04:43Violet pursed her lips and hung her head.
04:45Nothing?
04:46Looks like a few of mom's flowers from the garden.
04:49Did she give you permission to pick those?
04:52Uh-huh.
04:53She gave me permission.
04:54That was very nice of mom.
04:56She treasures those flowers.
04:59Make sure you give her a big kiss and say thank you.
05:02Violet rubbed her feet together.
05:04Her story was working?
05:05Okay, I will.
05:08Dad opened the cupboard where mom kept flower jars.
05:11Want me to put them in a vase for you?
05:14Violet rocked back and forth.
05:15I gots a vase.
05:17Raising an eyebrow dad closed the cupboard door.
05:20Oh.
05:21Mom got you one, already?
05:23Yes.
05:24I'm going to put these in my room now.
05:27Violet dashed off.
05:29Once the flowers were in her room, everything would be okay.
05:33She put the flowers in the vase with the others, and sat staring at them again.
05:38She tried to count them, and decided she would keep collecting one or two until she
05:43had them all.
05:44A sharp rapping knock at her bedroom door awoke Violet from her daydreams.
05:50Mom opened the door roughly, her long black hair framing a face that Violet could only
05:54describe with the word.
05:56Uh-oh.
05:57Violet, dad says you took more flowers from my garden.
06:01Is that true?
06:02Nuh-uh.
06:03I didn't.
06:05Do not lie to me, Violet.
06:07I can see the orchid right there.
06:10Dad emerged from the hall, clearly worried.
06:13You okay, Clover?
06:15Mom pressed two fingers against the bridge of her nose, and exhaled sharply.
06:20I'm fine, honey.
06:21It's just.
06:23A lot.
06:24Dad put a hand against the back of mom's shoulder.
06:27I know.
06:28I've got your back.
06:29Why don't you sit down and I'll get to the bottom of this.
06:33You've had a long day.
06:35Mom leaned into the embrace.
06:36Thanks, Henry.
06:38You're my hero today.
06:40I think I will sit down.
06:42Mom settled onto Violet's My Little Pony themed bed and rubbed her temples.
06:47With that, dad approached Violet and kneeled onto one knee, looking her directly in the
06:52eye.
06:53Violet, mom says that, before I got home, you picked some flowers from her garden without
06:58her permission.
06:59Is that true?
07:00I was Princess Petal, explained Violet, hoping this would settle the matter.
07:07And then, mom explained a new rule to you.
07:09You're not allowed to pick flowers from mommy's garden without permission.
07:13Right?
07:14Then, I came home, and you had a bunch more flowers you'd picked.
07:18Did mom give you permission to pick those?
07:21Violet's mind raced for a good story.
07:23She remembered thinking how if she only took one or two, no one would ever notice.
07:29So only one or two?
07:31No, Vi.
07:33It was more than two.
07:34So, when you picked those flowers, that was after mom told you not to.
07:38And you did not get permission to pick that orchid and the other flowers.
07:42Is that right?
07:43Violet's attention turned to the flower arrangement.
07:47This was supposed to be the part where they saw how pretty they were in her room and were
07:51happy for her.
07:52It's okay.
07:54They're prettier here.
07:56So that's a yes.
07:57You took those flowers without your mom's permission.
08:00Then you told me that she gave you permission to pick those flowers.
08:04Did you tell me a lie, Violet?
08:07Violet scrunched up her face, her eyes watering.
08:10Yes.
08:11I told a lie.
08:13Mom says that the rule was, if you plucked a flower, you'd get a spanking.
08:17Do you remember that?
08:19Suddenly, all of the spankings Violet had seen in cartoons and books flooded into her
08:24memory at once.
08:26Uh-huh.
08:27If I pluck any more flowers without permission, I will get a spanking.
08:31She recited from memory.
08:33Mom huffed.
08:34See?
08:35She remembers that, all right.
08:37Steel trap memory.
08:39With a guiding hand, Dad led Violet into the corner of her bedroom.
08:44Well, we've never needed to do this before, but I think it's perfectly fair in this situation.
08:49Violet, stand in the corner and face the wall.
08:52You're in timeout.
08:54Your mother and I need to discuss this.
08:57Violet hung her head.
08:58She had spent plenty of time in timeout.
09:01She could hear everything her parents were discussing, and understood a lot of it.
09:06As Violet studied the texture of the cream-colored paint on the wall, Dad's calm voice was the
09:11first thing she heard.
09:14I can handle this, Clover.
09:16Do you want to?
09:17No way, Henry.
09:18I want the first crack at her.
09:21Gonna light her up like a Christmas tree.
09:23Clover, what have we discussed about child discipline?
09:26Yeah, never spank a child in anger.
09:29I know the line.
09:31Yes, I'm angry, Henry.
09:33But I'm in control.
09:35I'll feel better when I'm done spanking the daylights out of-
09:37I will not let you spank our daughter when you're in this state, Clover.
09:41You're not in control.
09:43So I'm not allowed to feel angry?
09:45It was me she disobeyed.
09:47I want to spank her, Henry.
09:49I want to spank her to within an inch of her life.
09:52That's how my dad always did it, and I turned out fine.
09:55That is not fine, Clover.
09:57The way your dad did it was wrong.
09:59You're allowed to feel angry.
10:01I'm angry.
10:03She lied to my face.
10:04But we're the adults and we have to work together on this.
10:08You're right, Henry.
10:10You're right.
10:11I'm sorry.
10:12Phew.
10:13Violet heard her bed creak as her mom sat on it.
10:17Dad let the moment hang.
10:18Violet heard her bed creak again as dad sat down.
10:22All right.
10:23In that case, I think I should take the lead.
10:26Is there anything more you want to discuss?
10:29Yeah, yeah.
10:30I'm sorry, Henry.
10:32But I've got to learn to do it too, right?
10:35I mean, what if I blow my top and you're not here to rein me in?
10:39I've got to get this under control.
10:41She's been so good in the past.
10:43I never thought this would be a problem.
10:45OK.
10:46Then maybe you should practice.
10:48How about this?
10:49I'll spank Violet first, then I'll let you take over.
10:53You can watch how I do it, and I'll
10:54tell you to stop if I think you're being too harsh.
10:57Good.
10:58I trust you, Henry.
11:00But I think I'm OK now.
11:02I feel in control.
11:04Maybe you should let me go first.
11:07You sure?
11:08You were pretty hot under the collar.
11:10Huh?
11:11Yeah, I was, wasn't I?
11:14But like, if I spank too hard, maybe I
11:16should go first so she doesn't get two spankings.
11:19Does that make sense?
11:21Plus, I feel calm now with you here.
11:24I want to try and get past this.
11:27I agree.
11:28In that case, you take point, Clover.
11:31I'll be right here.
11:32OK.
11:34I love her, and I don't want to hurt her.
11:36If you think I'm going overboard, stop me.
11:39And if I do a bad job, you have my permission
11:41to spank me if you need to.
11:44Dad chuckled.
11:45I don't think there will be any need for that, Clover.
11:48You're a great mother.
11:49The offer's open.
11:51OK, Violet.
11:53Let's get this party started.
11:55Violet was a little confused by what she overheard,
11:58but she gleaned that Mommy was mad, Daddy was calm,
12:02and Mommy was calming herself down.
12:04Violet had learned to calm herself down
12:06when she got a boo-boo that wasn't serious.
12:09Violet turned to face her parents.
12:12Mom sat there awkwardly for a few seconds,
12:15but when Dad gestured for her to begin,
12:17she cleared her throat and began.
12:20Violet, what you did was wrong, and you
12:22need to learn from this experience.
12:25Mommy has never spanked you before,
12:27so I need to learn how to do this.
12:29The spanking is going to hurt, but Daddy
12:31is going to make sure you're safe and that I do a good job.
12:34Uh, the spanking is going to be on your bottom?
12:37Mom looked to Dad as if asking, am I doing this right?
12:42Dad suppressed a laugh and nodded encouragingly.
12:45I'm sorry.
12:46This isn't funny.
12:48Carry on.
12:49Relieved, Mom continued resolutely.
12:52From now on, the rule in this house
12:54is if you pick any flowers without permission,
12:56you will get a spanking.
12:58Also, you lied to your Daddy, and that also deserves
13:01a spanking.
13:02We love you, and we don't want to spank you,
13:04but we need to make sure you understand the consequences
13:07for disobeying and lying.
13:09I'm going to give you a warm-up spanking first,
13:11and then you will go ask your father
13:13to finish your punishment.
13:15It's important that you learn to respect authority
13:17and obey your parents.
13:19Fear and trepidation washed over Violet
13:21as her mother's words sank in.
13:23She had never experienced a spanking before,
13:26and the thought of it made her tremble.
13:28However, deep down, she knew she had done wrong,
13:32and a small part of her was curious
13:34if a real-life spanking was like it was in the cartoons.
13:37Dad stood up to allow more space on the bed.
13:41Mom seemed to realize how low Violet's bed
13:43was in relation to the ground.
13:45Straightening the folds in her denim jeans,
13:48she kneeled on the floor directly in front of the bed
13:51and patted her lap.
13:53Come here, Violet,
13:54and lay on your tummy across Mommy's knees.
13:57Yes, Mommy.
13:59Violet hesitantly positioned herself
14:01across her mother's lap,
14:02her small palms resting on the carpeted floor.
14:05Her mother's hand gently rubbed her back
14:07as if trying to offer a semblance of comfort.
14:11Remember, Violet, this spanking is not meant to hurt you,
14:14but to help you understand the seriousness of your actions.
14:17Her mother explained softly, her voice tinged with sorrow.
14:21You are loved, and we want you to grow up
14:23to be a responsible and honest person.
14:26With a deep breath, Violet prepared herself.
14:30The first swat landed on her clothed bottom
14:33with a soft pop, causing a slight stinging sensation.
14:36It surprised Violet much more than it hurt her,
14:39and she clutched her mother's leg,
14:41the reality of her punishment sinking in.
14:44Her mind raced with a mix of regret and morbid curiosity.
14:48That's not so bad.
14:49So why do they always cry right away in the cartoons?
14:53As her mother's hand connected with her bottom repeatedly,
14:56Violet's thoughts alternated between discomfort
14:59and reflection between each smack.
15:01She didn't know what the word consequence meant,
15:04but if this spanking was a consequence of her actions,
15:07she knew that meant that this was her fault,
15:09a reminder to think before she acted.
15:12Violet had known picking the flowers was wrong.
15:15Remembering the end of Green Gable's book,
15:17mom liked to read to her at bedtime.
15:20Violet silently vowed to herself
15:22to never let her imagination run away with her again.
15:26Mom paused.
15:28Um, Henry, do you think I'm not doing this right?
15:31I was afraid I'd hurt her, but.
15:34I see what you mean, Clover.
15:36Violet, you're being awful quiet.
15:39This is your first spanking.
15:41What are you thinking?
15:42Violet wiggled her bottom and felt only a slight sting.
15:46I'm thinking I was bad,
15:48and this is a consequent of my actions.
15:51That's very good, Violet.
15:53Does it hurt much?
15:55Spanking doesn't hurt as much as I thought it did.
15:58Dad nodded.
15:59Thank you for telling me the truth, Violet.
16:01Dad turned aside and spoke to no one in particular
16:05before turning back to his wife.
16:07Now she chooses to be brutally honest.
16:10Love it.
16:11I'll remember that later.
16:13Clover, go ahead and take off her overalls.
16:16You should make a stronger first impression.
16:18Mom guided Violet to her feet
16:20and unbuttoned the straps of her overalls.
16:23You sure?
16:24I don't want to overcorrect.
16:26Dad gave a thumbs up.
16:28You're doing great.
16:29Always spanking layers, as grandma used to say.
16:33This conversation gave Violet pause.
16:36As her overalls flopped down,
16:37revealing Dora the Explorer underoos,
16:40Violet suddenly remembered
16:41that although the characters in the cartoons
16:43always started bawling right away,
16:45the characters in the cartoons
16:47were also never wearing overalls.
16:50Uh, wait.
16:51Don't spank Dora.
16:53She didn't do anything wrong.
16:55Well, you did do something wrong, Violet.
16:59Dora will be fine.
17:00Mom gently guided Violet back over her lap
17:03and after looking to dad for approval,
17:06started the spanking right where she left off.
17:09With one slap, Violet noticed a distinct difference.
17:13The earlier whops across her overalls
17:16had felt like bumping her bum
17:17while bouncing on the bed a little too hard.
17:20Not fun, but nothing worth crying about.
17:23The clap was distinctly louder now.
17:26She felt her bottom jiggle from the impact.
17:29And the sting.
17:30That was a good, old, run crying to mommy
17:33because it smarts like a wasp sting sensation.
17:36But she couldn't come crying to mommy
17:38to make it better this time.
17:40And just like the characters in the cartoons,
17:42Violet started wailing right away.
17:46After the second sharp spank,
17:48Violet felt her underoos ride up uncomfortably.
17:51She wanted it to stop so she could fix the wedgie,
17:54but when it didn't stop, she melted into tears.
18:07After what felt like an eternity,
18:09but was actually only 10 spanks,
18:11her mother finally stopped.
18:13She stood Violet up and pulled her into a warm embrace,
18:17tenderly wiping away her tears.
18:19Violet held her bottom, unaware that it was over.
18:23I love you, Violet, mom whispered,
18:26her voice filled with both compassion and determination.
18:29Now, go ask your father to finish your spanking properly.
18:33Trembling with a mixture of fear and contrition,
18:36Violet turned to face her dad, her legs feeling weak.
18:40She trundled towards him,
18:42her overalls bunched around her ankles.
18:45Violet paused to step out of her overalls
18:47and fix her wedgie.
18:49Timidly, she looked up to him, her voice barely a whisper.
18:53Daddy, mommy said I need to finish my spanking with you.
18:57His expression was a mix of humor and sadness.
19:00With a sigh, he ruffled Violet's hair,
19:03then picked her up and sat her down next to him on the bed.
19:07Violet, I want you to grow up to be a responsible
19:09and respectful person.
19:11Mommy spanked you because you deliberately disobeyed her
19:13and picked the flowers.
19:15Now, I'm going to spank you for lying to me.
19:17Bend over my lap and we'll finish your punishment.
19:21Violet obeyed, her heart pounding
19:23as she positioned herself once again.
19:25This time, she lay across her dad's left leg
19:29and rested her hands and face on her bed.
19:32She got a close-up view of the cast of My Little Pony
19:35before she felt something pin her legs in place,
19:37her dad's right leg.
19:39Violet had just enough time to register
19:42that she wasn't going anywhere
19:44when her father's hand landed on her already pink bottom.
19:48The waterworks, which had paused, instantly renewed.
19:52Violet had no frame of reference,
19:54but mom and dad had been exceptionally careful
19:57not to spank too hard.
19:59The slap sounded loud and scary,
20:01but Violet had originally cried more
20:03from the surprise of the sting
20:04rather than from the sting itself.
20:07As her father delivered firm swats
20:09that reverberated through her small behind,
20:11that all changed.
20:14Suppressing her tears, Violet gritted her teeth
20:16the way she thought a brave princess should,
20:19determined to show her parents
20:20that she had learned her lesson.
20:22But this time, the stinging built to a crescendo.
20:26It was Violet's first experience of a truly lingering pain.
20:30Sure, she'd had plenty of bumps, bruises,
20:33and scrapes over the years,
20:35but the tears for that kind of pain
20:37were more for attention.
20:39Being a big girl meant she didn't have to cry
20:42over every little boo-boo.
20:44But now, no matter how much she wanted to be a big girl,
20:48Violet had to cry.
20:52If Violet could have seen herself,
20:54she would have thought she looked
20:55just like the characters in all the cartoons.
21:00The spanking soon came to an end,
21:02once again after only 10 spanks,
21:05and her father embraced her tightly
21:07as she buried her head in his chest
21:09and dug her fingers into his shoulders.
21:12There, there.
21:13The spanking is over.
21:14Remember, Violet, we discipline you
21:16because we care about you
21:18and want you to grow up to be the best version of yourself.
21:20Violet nodded and pulled her head away
21:22from Dad's shoulder to look into his eyes.
21:25She felt the love in his eyes,
21:27in his embrace, and in his voice.
21:30Now, when I was your age,
21:32I lied to my mother, your grandma,
21:34and do you know what she did?
21:36Violet shook her head.
21:37Nope.
21:38Well, she spanked me on my bare bottom.
21:41That's the way your grandma always did it.
21:43What was it you said earlier?
21:45Don't spank Dora.
21:46She didn't do anything wrong.
21:48Well, you're right.
21:50Dora doesn't disobey her mommy,
21:52and Dora doesn't lie to her daddy.
21:54For what you did today,
21:55you deserve the spanking on your bare bottom.
21:58Violet's eyes went wide
21:59as Dad patted her over her Dora the Explorer underoos.
22:03Wasn't her spanking over?
22:05Her lip trembling,
22:06her hands moved reflexively to her bottom.
22:09Please don't pull down my underoos.
22:11Are you going to spank me again?
22:14Not today.
22:15I was planning to give you another spanking at bedtime,
22:18like grandma used to,
22:19but you did a good job telling the truth
22:21when I asked you questions earlier.
22:23Because of that,
22:24I'm not going to spank you on your bare bottom today.
22:27You're a very good girl, Violet,
22:28and we've never had to spank you before.
22:31But from now on,
22:32deliberate disobedience and lying
22:33equals a spanking on the bare bottom
22:35and another spanking before bed.
22:37Repeat the rules so I know you understand.
22:40Violet nodded and repeated her father's words.
22:43Do you have any questions?
22:45Do you understand what it means
22:47to be deliberately disobedient?
22:49Violet shook her head yes, but said no.
22:52Then she shook her head no, but said yes.
22:56I understand what deliberate disobedience means.
22:59It means if I disobey on purpose
23:02and lying isn't telling stories,
23:04it's saying anything that isn't the truth.
23:07I have a question.
23:08Am I going to get lots of spankings now?
23:11Mom chimed in.
23:12Hopefully not.
23:14I don't think I could take it.
23:16Dad and mom chuckled,
23:17but the joke went over Violet's head.
23:20Dad patted Violet on the head reassuringly.
23:23If you remember those two rules and obey them,
23:25then we'll never have to spank you again.
23:28Spanking is to help you grow up
23:30and become a big girl
23:31who doesn't need spankings anymore.
23:33Relieved, Violet hugged her dad again,
23:35then hugged her mom.
23:37Mom stiffened, then returned the hug
23:39and planted a kiss on Violet's forehead.
23:42You're my favorite flower, Violet.
23:44Feeling both physically and emotionally spent,
23:47Violet collapsed onto her bed
23:49and let her mother tuck her in for a nap.
23:52Although she was mercifully spared a bedtime spanking,
23:55she was technically sent to bed without supper.
23:58Mom made everyone an extra big breakfast
24:00the next day to make up for it.
24:03Violet awoke after an initial nap
24:05and lay beneath her covers,
24:07her mind drifted through a whirlwind
24:08of thoughts and emotions.
24:10She thought about what she had done wrong,
24:13her heart heavy with remorse.
24:15She reflected on the two first ever spankings
24:18she had received.
24:19Except for a warm, slightly buzzing feeling,
24:23her bottom already felt like it was back to normal.
24:26Now that it was over,
24:27the spankings didn't seem all that bad.
24:30Violet recognized them as acts of love
24:32and guidance from her parents.
24:34She understood that her parents
24:36were teaching her important lessons
24:38about responsibility and respect.
24:40They're helping me grow up to be a good princess,
24:43she thought to herself.
24:45With a renewed determination,
24:47Violet made a silent promise to herself.
24:50She would strive to be a better listener,
24:52to think before acting,
24:54and to always respect the boundaries set by her parents.
24:58And as she thought of the possibility
24:59of a bare-bottom spanking,
25:01she held her hands to her drawer,
25:03the Explorer Underoos,
25:04and vowed to never, ever lie to daddy again.
25:07As she closed her eyes,
25:09she whispered a heartfelt prayer of apology.
25:12God, I'm sorry I disobeyed mom.
25:15I'm sorry I lied to dad.
25:17Please help me not forget to remember that.
25:20Thank you for my mommy and daddy.
25:22Thank you for my princess books.
25:24And tell mommy and daddy thank you for spanking me
25:27and help me learn my lessons so I don't get another one.
25:30With that, she fell into a deep slumber,
25:33dreaming of a future where she grew up to be a good princess.
25:38Henry and Clover gently closed Violet's bedroom door
25:41after checking to make sure she had gone down for the night.
25:44For such a little devil,
25:45she's sure angelic when she's asleep,
25:47whispered Henry.
25:49He waited for Clover to rip him for his dad jokes,
25:52but Clover was looking down sullenly.
25:55You okay, Clover?
25:57Do you think I did a good job?
25:59Spanking her, I mean.
26:01Of course.
26:03You were in perfect control.
26:05You're a natural.
26:06Clover lowered her eyelids and pretended to pout.
26:09Oh, so no spanking for me today?
26:13Henry pretended to be oblivious.
26:15Nope.
26:16No spanking for you, Clover.
26:19Not even if I want one?
26:21Henry scooped up his giggling wife.
26:24Well, that's a catch-22, isn't it?
26:27If you're bad, you want me to spank you for being bad.
26:30If you're good, you want me to spank you for being good.
26:33What's a guy to do?
26:35Clover gasped for air between fits of laughter
26:37and pressed a finger into his chest.
26:40Hey, how can I thank you properly
26:41if you don't spank me properly?
26:43But as he carried her toward the master bedroom,
26:46Henry saw Clover's laughter die away.
26:49It was hard.
26:50You know, my dad used to just haul me over the table
26:53and wail on me for anything,
26:55sometimes just because he felt like it.
26:57I was always afraid to spank my own kids because of that.
27:01I can't believe how angry I was.
27:04I was like him.
27:06Sensing that Clover wasn't in the mood to play,
27:08Henry gently set his wife down
27:10and opened the door of the master bedroom for her.
27:13You're not like him, Clover.
27:15You kept it together.
27:17That's what's important.
27:18Clover sat down on their bed
27:20and buried her face in her hands.
27:22I see your perspective better now.
27:25You know, the whole time you had Clover over your knee,
27:27the only thing I could think about was you.
27:30What do you mean?
27:31That you actually care about being a good dad.
27:34That you have control.
27:36I mean, I knew you had self-control
27:38just to put up with me in my high school years.
27:41Henry sat down beside her
27:43and tried to lift up her face to look into her eyes.
27:46Don't beat yourself up, Clover.
27:48You've grown so much as a person.
27:50Clover turned away, tucking her knees into fetal position.
27:54Hear me out.
27:56I'm so lucky to have you, Henry.
27:58I am so glad I married you.
28:01Henry placed a kiss on the back of her neck.
28:04Clover's memories of her abusive upbringing
28:06had led to a long struggle with depression,
28:08one Henry had witnessed firsthand
28:10when they were just high school friends.
28:13There were no easy words to cheer her up
28:15or snap her out of it.
28:17Sometimes, he just had to sit with her and listen.
28:21They called it riding out the storm.
28:23It was a trigger, wasn't it?
28:25All this business with the spanking?
28:27Clover pulled herself out of the fetal position.
28:30She'd made a lot of progress over the years,
28:33therapy, cutting off all contact with her dad.
28:37But Henry had been her rock through all of it.
28:40Yeah, I guess it was.
28:42But I think I'm okay.
28:44Like, I was worried for years
28:45about what I would do in this situation,
28:47and now I know I can actually do okay.
28:50It's like a letdown, but good.
28:53All that worry for nothing?
28:54Clover snorted, then leaned her weight
28:56onto Henry's shoulder.
28:58She brushed her lips softly against his shirt
29:00as she quoted from memory.
29:02Do not worry about tomorrow,
29:04for tomorrow will worry about its own things.
29:06Sufficient for the day is its own trouble.
29:09Finished Henry.
29:10Exactly, so, like I said, I'm so glad I married you.
29:14I love you, Clover.
29:16They touched their foreheads for a pregnant moment.
29:19Clover never wanted the moment to end,
29:21but finally, she pulled back and stared into Henry's eyes.
29:25Then she undid the button of her jeans
29:27and slinked across his lap.
29:29Come on, I want to thank you properly.
29:32Together, they gracefully slid Clover's jeans
29:35down her legs, revealing almost see-through lacy,
29:39black Victoria's Secret panties.
29:41Henry shrugged as he positioned his wife's bottom.
29:44Clover's deep-felt need to be spanked
29:46had never ceased to surprise him over the years,
29:49but who was he to complain?
29:51So, I have to spank you properly?
29:53Clover nodded and lifted her bottom.
29:56Spank me, Daddy.
29:58Henry raised his hand
29:59and planted the first spank straight on.
30:02The end.
30:06Thank you for listening.
