Jarret decided that he would take a break from unpacking and check out the Animal Clinic a few days before he was due to start work. Holding Andy’s hand firmly but gently in his, to control her excitable wrecking ball movement a little he lead her on the a short walk around the area before loading her up in the car to go to the clinic. The whole way there Andy talked non-stop about things pertaining to horses, animals, wanting a pony, wanting a dog but mostly how happy she was to be showing Daddy how good she could work. Jarret smiled and tried to reply to most of it but she wouldn’t have listened anyways, she was to busy talking to hear him.
When they arrived, Andy rushed forward to open the door but it turned out to be locked and she waited impatiently for the more laid-back Jarret to unlock it for her. Unlocking it he grabbed up Andy gently in his arms as they entered to keep her from reeking havoc on the place before he could even turn on the light. She struggled against his firm embrace as he flicked on the light. “PUT ME DOWN DADDY!!! PUT ME DOOOOOWN” she shouted as she squirmed. Jarret replied calmly “Little lady?... How do you ask?” it was what he usually said when she threw a fit. Andy looked at him a little regretfully as if hating herself for being polite but said “Daddy could you please let me down?” she smiled sweetly up at him. Jarret shook his head at how easily he was swayed and said “Ok, but you have to pinky promise to not touch anything until Daddy gets a chance to organize his stuff” he offered her his pinky which she took eagerly in a promise “I swear” she said dead serious.
Jarret let his daughter down, and she immediately gravitated to the window and went from there around, touching only the most interesting things but stopping when Jarret gave her a look of warning. Jarret sighed and took a few walks through the place, making mental note of things to do and then set about unpacking, thinking how much he needed to find a daycare for Andy - she was just to energetic.
