She misses her cot

Just when I thought Zara is getting used to her bed, we had this conversation yesterday during bed time.

Zara : *just out of the blue* "Kakak put the cot away already."
Me : "No, Daddy put the cot away, in the other room."
Zara : *pointing to her bed* "Mummy, throw the bed away"
Me : *shocked!* "Why?"
Zara : "The bed so slippery" (so untrue, but I guess she's just coming out with excuse)
Me : "No, the bed is not slippery."
Zara : "The cot is better. Throw the bed away. Zara want the cot."
Me : "But Zara is already a jiejie (Chinese : Big sister). Cot is for babies, Zara is not a baby, but a jiejie now".
Zara : ".... "
Zara : "Mummy, Zara want go downstairs."
Me : "It's bed time, why does Zara want to go downstairs."
Zara : "Zara sleep downstairs."
Me : "Downstairs got mosquitos and lizards at night, and Zara will be lonely if Zara sleep downstairs alone."
Zara : *tears started rolling down* "Zara don't yike (like) the bed"
Me : "Zara sleep on mummy's bed then, mummy sleep on Zara's bed. Ok?"
Zara : "Zara want mummy hug hug to sleep."
Me : "Ok, Zara sleep together with mummy then"

So she slept on my side of the bed.
