“Hey, the baby did nothing wrong.” “The baby is being born to two horrible people. It’s the baby I feel bad for.” Maybe I should send the restraining order to my mom. I mean, telling me to stop fighting for a divorce is one thing. But legal documentation? And I should share it w

I knock on Derek’s door and call out to the girls as I step inside. “Bea? Tris? It’s Miss Esme from next door!” I see the younger daughter poke her head out from behind the couch. “Miss Esme!” Bea comes running out of her room, black hair everywhere. “You came over!” She nearly

“Oh, like drugs,” I tease. “You caught me. Setting up for kid’s birthday party is like crack. I don’t let others watch me, and it gives me the same type of high.” I can’t stop myself from snorting a laugh out. “Didn’t realize how much I missed that.” I’m still smiling, though confused by wha

Bea’s birthday party is happening at the local park of the town. They’ve cornered off a gazebo, with multiple picnic tables under the roof of the area. Presents sit stacked on two of them, taller than any of the kids. Derek and Tris are at the table with the cake and snacks. “Miss Esme!” Tris cr

Monday morning, I awake to texts and phone calls all from Ryan. I’d blocked his number, but each message comes from another phone, totaling four different possible burner phones. “Why?” I ask the ceiling as though it’ll answer me. Today I’ll be going back to the office. I’ve grown stir crazy in
