Wednesday August 31st, 2022.

"Mama, wake up", I hear before being nudged awake.

"Mama is sleeping, what do you need?", I ask as I roll over to lay opposite my daughter.

"It's almost noon mama", she says and I open my eyes.

I reach for my phone, low and behold it is almost noon. "Why didn't you wake me up earlier?", I ask and she looks at me.

"I tried, but you threw the pillow at me and told me to fuck off or I'd be sent to live with her", she says and I laugh a little.

"I'm sorry Aurora, I didn't mean to and I would never send you to go live with her", I tell her and she sadly nods.

"I know mama, but let's get up. I have things to do and my bestie to see", she says as she climbs off my bed.

Aurora is my seven year old daughter. She's a pain in the ass but I do love her. She came into my life when I needed someone, someone to take care of and love.

I never really saw myself having kids... ever. Well that's a small lie.

I always wanted kids... but I honestly wanted them with one specific person and definitely not Aurora's "mum".

But the baby mama drama is a long story and I don't really talk about it.

I was looking forward to having the night to myself though, especially with our trip around the corner.

But thinking about the trip, made me start thinking on if I'd see her again. I want to. I miss our friendship and I just want to see her gorgeous smile again.

All these memories came rushing back as I got up.

Thinking about her and about everything. I thought back to my grandfather and his funeral. By then Aurora was born, but her mum and I split.

Everyone wanted to meet her but I wasn't allowed to bring her and I refused to bring my ex with me. No one liked her, they made it very clear.

I was sitting on the edge of my bed, when I remembered the one thing my grandpa used to say to me often, "No amount of time and space can separate you from the people you are meant to be with in your life". I took that advice and wished he was still alive to talk to. I miss my grandfather a lot.

He was the one person I could talk to about life, he would tell me all sorts of things. Like never stop loving, never stop waiting and more.

I always hoped that one day, just one day I'd be with her. I know she's in a relationship and I'm happy for her, but is it wrong that I wish she was mine?

I got off my bed, slipped on my sweats and walked out of my room. I walked downstairs and joined my daughter in the kitchen.

"What time do you want to head to Auntie Scar's?", I ask as I pull my phone out of my pocket.

"Whenever", she says and I nod.

Scar 🕷️

Me:
Hey,
When can I drop Rory off?

Scar 🕷️:
Anytime!!

Me:
So like now?

Scar 🕷️:
Aha yeah that works

Me:
Good, because she woke me up
and I want to sleep.

Scar 🕷️:
Oh haha

Me:
We'll be there soon

"Get your things, we're heading now", I tell her and she takes off. I just want to get my work done before the trip, so honestly I want to rid of my daughter as fast as possible. I love her, but it's hard to focus when she's here.
