I see Leo get all teary eyed. He's getting emotional. That makes me emotional. He walks towards lily and kneels down.
"Lily this is your uncle Leo."
Lily looks up at him with adoration. I always told her stories of Leo and his adventures and she absolutely loved them.
"This is uncle Leo?!"
"Yes love!"
She looks at him in the eyes and he brings out her hand to shake it.
"Lily, I've wanted to meet you so bad for long long beautiful. You look exactly like your mother."
Lily smiles and blushes. She is my adorable. I love her so much.
Lily and Leo start talking and from the corner of my eye I see Mason standing there with his arms crossed and all tensed.
Must be jealous that Leo gets to see his kid.
"Alright beautiful, I'm gonna go back to work I'll see you soon ok!"
"Ok!!"
Lily smiles and starts swaying side to side.
What a cutie.
I was about to pick lily up and tell Mason that I'm leaving but he beats me to it.
"Let's go play sweetie"
I don't want to get in between them but it's time to get home. I'm really tired, even though I just slept for the majority of this day.
"Um mason, we really need to get home."
He looks at me and I see a tiny little frown appear on his face.
"Can't she stay for a little longer. It's only 5. Go home in an hour. Please."
They both start making pouty faces at me and pleading.
"Pleaseeee?"
"Alright fine but, we are leaving right after."
"Yay!"
Lily smiles with so much joy. Cutie.
Eventually they finish playing and it's time for us to go home. I drive lily home and we get ready for bed and go to sleep.
~next day~
I wake up with so much energy. I could conquer the world right now. I get up and clean around the house, have a nice bath, then I get ready and wake lily up.
"Baby, good morning. It's time to get up!"
She looks so tired and she did play a lot yesterday.
"Good morning mommy"
She slowly gets up with a sleepy voice. Eventually she gets out of bed and I go downstairs to make her breakfast. She comes downstairs all ready and I give her some pancakes and toast.
"What are you guys gonna do in daycare today?"
She looks at me excited and rushes to finish her bite.
"Today we are gonna watch a movie and then the teachers taking us to the community garden again! I love the community garden, it's so pretty. It reminds me of you mommy."
"Awe baby, I love love love youu"
"I love you too mommy!"
She's so cute.
I really love the life I've made with lily and now with Mason coming back, it's changing bit by bit. She's growing up so fast.
Lily and I eat breakfast and then we leave. I drop her off at daycare and then I drive to my favourite place. The zen forest. Or well that's what I call it at least. It's a forest that no one really goes to but I love going to. There's ponds and rivers flowing through and on sunny days it looks beautiful. I haven't taken lily there yet. I want to soon. She'd love this.
I walk around for a while and I sit by the river eating a baguette I brought with me. I know they get cold but they are so good I had to bring 'em with me. I almost fall asleep when I hear the bushes rustle behind me.
I turn towards the sound and there's ajax, standing right in front of me.
Well shit.
"Everleigh?"
"Ajax! What are you doing here?"
no please leave, leave me alone.
"Umm I come here a lot but usually on the other side, today I just wanted to sit somewhere different so I came here."
"Oh, I come here a lot too."
Ajax looks nervous, he starts bouncing his leg and looking around anxiously.
"Is everything alright?"
His head spins toward me and we sit there silent for a few seconds.
"Oh, yeah."
He gives me a fake ass smile.
"Do you wanna go walk around with me?"
Well shit. Umm. You know what, I'll say yes, we will walk around, and I'll text Mason before it incase anything happens.
"Yeah sure!"
I bring out my phone to text Mason quickly.
"One sec."
Ajax stares at me while I text Mason.
Me: Mason, I'm at the abandoned forest near Churchill and Ajax is here, he wants me to walk around with him get here asap.
Mason: alright. I'm on my way.
I follow ajax around the river and we walk for a few minutes. Eventually, we get the this trail that I've never seen before.
"Where does this lead too? I've been coming here six years and I've never seen this trail before."
"I always knew about this trail. It's a beautiful one too, follow me!"
Weird.
I try to text Mason again but there's no data around this part of the forest.
Shit.
"Um Ajax, I have to go soon. Maybe we can go on this trail next time?"
He doesn't turn to look at me.
"It's ok! This trails shorter than the other ones. It'll be quick I promise."
