        Joan was washing the dishes when she heard the knock on the door, she went to check it and it was her mum.

      She greeted her and she came in

    She enters inside sadly with a long face and Joan asked "Mum what is the matter" her mother with long face sat on the chair.

       "No no it's not possible, why" said mum.

     "What's the problem, what is not possible" asked Joan and her mum still have her same reply.

     Her mum finally took in air within  two seconds and finally breaths it out.

      "Mum please answer me" said Joan.

     *Mr Smith was at work*

    "I still had that dream" said mum touching her head.

     " Mum you are over exaggerating" said Joan.

     "The dream that Smith divorced you" said mum and finally breaking down in tears.

        "Mum, I told you it's just a dream"said Joan.

       "No"said mum standing from the chair and looking at Joan disappointedly.

      "Why does it come over and over again then"said mum.

       "I do not want you to get divorced , it is not proper, and it makes the family look incomplete" said mum.

      "Do not worry, I will not get divorced" said mum.

      " I do not want my son to be fatherless" said Joan.

     After they talked her mum went home and Joan kept on thinking of what her mum told her.

     After some hours, Mr Smith came back and Joan gave him food then she asked him if he was okay and she kept on checking on him in case of necessities.

       She kept on checking and checking until he asked " why so you keep on checking on me".

      Joan replied" Nothing, I just want to see if you are okay"

      Joan was really worried and sad at the same time.

3 YEARS LATER

      A toy car moves on the ground slowly to the sitting room and hits Joan's leg.

     "Mike why don't you play it in your room" said Joan, she smiles as she picks up the toy car and gives it to him on his hand.

      "Okay momma"said Mike taking the toy and headed towards his room.

      Joan changes the channel and comes to the kitchen to see what she was cooking.

      "Ohh, it almost burnt" said Joan.

    She finally dished for herself and her son Mike..

    *Mr Smith was at work*

     " Mike" Joan called out and moves to his room.

     She opens the door and found Mike watching TV.

      "Mike,come and eat, the food is ready baby, are you not hungry"said mum.

     She carried him and gave him a very big kiss on his face.

     She puts him down in his chair and puts his food on his table.

    "I made your favorite, I hope you like it as always"said Joan.

      " Of course momma" said Mike.

  He took his fork and started eating
Then Joan also sat and ate her own food.

     Joan had earlier find out that she was pregnant and she did tell her husband, he was not surprised.

     She told her mum and she was happy for her.

      She was 4 months pregnant.

   Smith had already formed the habit of not coming early from work.

      So at night they did not worry about him coming early.

       They just live their lives.

     "Mum why do dad come late from work" said Joan.

     Carries him up and put him on her lap "Dad is very busy with work lately so he has to work very hard and it takes time"said Joan.

      Mike came down from her leg himself and went into his room then Joan looks at the TV and took the remote to change the channel.

      Mr Smith came back early from work that day and Joan was shocked at same time happy that he came back early.

      "I did not have so many meetings to attend" said Mr Smith.

     " Okay" Joan replied.

    Mike rushes out of his room on hearing his dad's voice and hugged him.

     " Daddy, I missed you"said Mike.

       Mr Smith carries him up "I miss you too" said Mr Smith.

         Mr Smith kisses him on his cheek and Mike smiles and touches his father's face.

       Mr Smith went to freshen up, while Joan went to prepare his food.

     He finished and came to the dinning table to eat.

        Joan had already put the food on the dinning table.

      When Mr Smith finished eating, he sat in the sitting room and Joan came also.

      Joan told him about Mike starting school soon but Mr Smith insisted when he marks five years.

      Joan wanted Mike to start school early, but Mr Smith insisted otherwise.

       Joan also told him that she wanted to start a small business, but Mr Smith told her to rest because she is pregnant.

       Joan wasn't happy about his decisions, but she had to take it because he is the head of the family.

      Joan was trying not to depend on Mr Smith.

      Mike continued his online teaching.

      Joan wanted him to make friends at this early stage, so she invites her friends children.

      The Next Day

     Mr Smith went to work and Mike was playing with his toys as always, he left one of his toy on the ground.

      And it mistakely pierced her leg.

   Joan shouted and immediately ran to the get the first aid box and treated her wound.

      Joan was mad at Mike but didn't want to carry out his anger on him so that he won't get emotional hurt because he was still a child and his baby.

      She told Mike not to keep his toys lying around and Mike was also so sorry for what he did.

        "Okay mum"said Mike picking the toy lying on the ground.
