Punched - CV & SD & AMR & MK

It all happened so fast. One second Charlotte was explaining to a parent about their child's day, filling them on on the reason behind the bag of dirty clothes in their bag and then the next there was a raised voice followed quickly by stunned silence.

Sorscha stepped in quickly, gesturing for the parent to leave. She made sure to keep herself in between the parent and her friend all while Chloe moved all the children to the book corner away from everyone else.

Charlotte stood stunned with her hand on her cheek. She had just been punched by a parent. Sorscha waits for the parent to be completely out of sight before moving towards Charlotte, placing her hand on her back gently. "Chloe, are you okay while we just head to the office?" Sorscha spoke calmly as she felt Charlottes whole body shaking I her arms. Once the young girl confirmed she was okay, sorscha took her time helping Charlotte to the office to find Mia and Marjorie. "You're safe. We will find Mia. You are okay. Im here." Sorscha spoke calmly as they walked side by side.

"Sorry to interrupt, but we have had an incident in the room with once of the parents and Charlotte." Mia's head shot up at the mention of her girlfriends name.
"Sweetheart, what's wrong?" Mia questioned the second Charlotte, and Sorscha walked inside the room. The tears that the brunette had been holding back the whole time since the incident finally began to fall at the sight of her girlfriend, her safe space.

Sorscha rubbed her back to comfort her briefly as Mia crossed the room, wrapping her arms around Charlotte gently.

Sorscha took a step back, letting Mia hold her girlfriend. Charlotte's whole body shook while in Mia's arms with her head buried deep into Mia's chest. Charlottes tears soaked through her girlfriend's top with ease. "The parent thats just leaving now just punched Charlotte because their child had a change of clothes." Sorscha told them quietly while standing between the two women and the window.

Mia moved quickly, carefully guiding Charlotte towards Marjorie while giving her a slight nod before rushing out of the office. "I will head back to the room, but just call if you need anything. As for you, Charlie, i will talk to you later." Sorscha spoke before being interrupted. "No, get outside and keep an eye on Mia. Autumn isn't here, so you are the next person i would trust to stop her. I will watch from here. If it gets too much, i will get chef as well. She is not getting done for assault today." Marjorie instructed sternly. Sorscha nodded, quickly shutting the office door behind herself. As much as she wanted to stay and support her best friend,  she knew she needed to go and stop Mia from doing anything she would later regret.

"Char, come here, my love. Let's sit you down, and I will grab you a tissue." Marjorie hushed while guiding her friend towards the couch that lived in the office. "Stop, please. I'm fine. I need to get Mia inside and get back to the room." She whispered while wiping her tears with the tissue from Marjorie.

The manager moved slowly, standing up to watch out of the window while holding Charlotte's hand. It was clear that the conversation was almost done by the time Sorscha joined them there. "I'm pulling Noah from this nursery." The parent finally gave up, walking away. Mia nodded before looking at the Irish woman. "You were being kicked out anyway after that stunt." She muttered through gritted teeth, getting the last say, while they walked side by side towards the building.

Sorscha kept quiet, sensing the rage that was bubbling up inside Mia. "I'm going back to the room. Just please let me know if you need anything." She muttered before moving towards the room door. "Thank you, Sorscha."

Soon enough, the office door swung open, making Charlotte visibly jump, and a fresh wave of tears fell. "Mia! You scared her! Again!" Marjorie yelled while continuing to stroke Charlottes hair. The redhead didn't respond. She couldn't, but the look she gave spoke louder than any words could. She was fuming.
