Thanksgiving break was nearing. "Only a couple more days", I tell myself. I was excited to get away from this life and spend it with people I can call my family.
One thing I was excited about was getting away from Easton who is on my last nerve. What he pulled at the gym last weekend was so immature and I was about ready to punch the man. Even if he wouldn't feel it. It would make me feel better.
But of course, when I saw Easton as Miles, my heart melted into a puddle. Miles was my dream man, but in a nightmares body.
When I walked in from running late, he looked at me and his lips parted as if he was going to ask me if I was okay.
I wasn't.
I had gotten a call a couple nights ago, Sunday to be exact. It was my one and only mother. I didn't have her number saved. I didn't even recognize her voice. I froze when she said my name. I couldn't even ask her how she got my number.
I hadn't spoken at all to her. I really thought she was dead due to not speaking to me for years.
She told me that she heard about my gig, made fun of me, called me a failure, and said that she and my dad would laugh at my downfall.
I broke down when she hung up. I immediately tried to call Daisy. It took a while for my shaky hands to press on her contact. But I'm glad she knew something was wrong when I hadn't spoken to her when she answered.
She came over and we talked, cried. Daisy was emotional. And when I first told her about my parents, we spent hours in her room crying our eyes out, but also thanking the Lord that we had met each other.
I didn't get any sleep that night. Daisy stayed with me and we watched a movie and ate. And early in the morning, we slept in without a care in the world. We knew no one would understand, but that was okay with us.
And I've been miserable on set since. I had to tell Tanner at least something when he came into my trailer that morning and asked me. I just told him that I was having family issues that night and I wouldn't let it happen again.
But it would all be okay soon. Because I was going to go home for the week and spend it with my real family. The family that raised me and loves me.

It's Friday night and normally on Fridays we have table reads for the next coming week. Due to us not coming into work next week, Tanner thought he would throw us a little party.
I walk in with my head high and my arm around Daisy. I wave to the people on the crew that I have gotten familiar with and take a seat at the table.
Daisy leaves me to go get us some food and I sit quietly and take all of it in. I hadn't realized that I also had a family here. Everybody loved each other and we were all comfortable around each other.
