Seattle, Washington
I wake up and look over to see the bed empty, I grab my phone to see a text from Ethan.
Had to go into the office early today.
I roll my eyes sitting the phone back down then get out of bed heading to the bathroom. After a shower and getting dressed I head down stairs into the kitchen. I walk in seeing the table set with a rose and plate with cover over top. I walk over to table looking a the roses seeing a card sitting in front of it.
"Wanted to get something as beautiful as you."
I sit down the card sitting in the chair uncovering the plate to see French toast with strawberries on top, an omelet and apple wooed smoked bacon my favorite breakfast meal. I start digging into my food when my phone goes off. I pick it up looking to see my mom FaceTiming me and I answer seeing Melody face pop up.
"Mommy." Melody says smiling.
"Hi baby." I say to her.
"I miss you." She says.
"I miss you too, are you having fun with grandma?" I ask her.
"Yes we went swimming with dolphins, I got to ride on a float and we went sky diving." She says excitedly.
"Mama!" I yell into the phone.
The phone moves around a bit and my mom's face pops up.
"You took Melody sky diving?"
I ask her worried."Calm down, it wasn't really sky diving it was the place that they have for the kids when they're in a tube like thing." She says.
"Oh thank god." I say relieved.
"I'm appalled that you think I would actually take her sky diving." She says.
"You took her bunging jump for her birthday." I say.
"That's neither here nor there, how are you?" She ask.
"I'm good." I say.
"You look tired." She says.
"I've been putting a lot of hours in at the shop." I say.
"I don't mean that kind of tired." She says.
"Mama." I say.
"I won't say anything, just make sure that you're taking care of yourself and you do what's best for you and why makes you happy." She says.
"What if I don't know what that is anymore?" I ask her.
"You know, you're just afraid to admit it." She says.
______________I've been at the shop for about three hours now. It's Friday, which is one of our busiest days. The bell goes of letting know that another customer has entered.
