"I'M HOME!" I yell as I walk inside, putting the groceries down and listening. I hear the pounding of footsteps and I smile to myself.

"MOMMY!" My quadruplets yell. Yes I have 4 children, and I love them to death.

"Mommy did you buy me some yogurt?" My daughter Emily asks me while playing with the hem of her shirt.

"Mom did you buy me that new game?" My son Evan ask me and grins at his brothers.

"Mom you were suppose to buy me knee pads my skateboard!" My son Ethan whines while stomping his foot.

"Hi Mom, did you have fun at the store?" My last but not least, son Eli asks while looking at the groceries.

"Listen guys your nine years old and if you want things you have to work for them." I told them and they all groaned. "But yes Eli, I did have fun sweetheart." I added before I started to put the groceries away.

"Ethan if you go outside and get the mail I'll pay you a dollar, okay?" I ask him and he nods before running outside, I smile softly to myself as I look at my other children.

"Mom you got some mail!" Ethan cries excitedly and he hands them to me.

"Okay let's go to the living room and I'll read you the letters." I say and finish putting the last bit of groceries up before I heard them to the living room.

Okay we've got a letter from my publicist and your great grandparents.
I pick up the letter from my grandparents and start reading it, at the end of it I'm crying.

"Mommy what's wrong?" Evan asks softly, Eli, Emily, and Ethan come over to me and hug me.

"Your great grandpa died guys. Your Grandma is all alone." I say with tears in my eyes. I then get up and go to my room getting the emergency suitcases. The kids run up the stairs after me.

"Where are we going mom?" Emily asks her eyes wide with confusion.

"Where going to my old home kiddo." I state and look at my kids with a sad smile on my face.

"But that jerky daddy is going to be there! The one that was mean to you!" Ethan exclaims, moving his arms around in wild gestures.

"Yes Ethan your daddy will be there, but we will ignore him because he's a bad man." I state, as I drag the suitcases down the steps.

"But Mommy!" Emily cries, stomping her foot.

"But mommy nothing, get in the car guys." I said in a serious tone and they all slowly walk to the car.

I put the suitcases in the trunk, before I get in and drive. Back to the place where I was just a shadow.
