     "Nate?"I called, walking into the studio. "In here!" I heard him call back. I walked down the hall and into the recording room where he was with Jonathan. "Oh, hey Jonathan, I didn't know you were visiting." I said to him. "Hey," he said, getting up and giving me a hug. I hugged him back. "So will you be staying with us or is Sarah here with you?" I asked, pulling away. "Yeah, we're staying at a hotel." he replied. I nodded and the looked back at Nate who was still sitting at the computer. "I'm going to the store to get stuff for the party tonight, do y'all need anything for the kitchen here or just anything in general?" I asked. He looked at the door in thought and then looked back at me and shook his head. "Don't think so." he replied. I walked over and kissed him before hugging Jonathan again and walking out of the house.

     I pushed the cart back into the cart corral and got into the car. My phone rang and I picked it up. "Hello?" I answered. "Ms. Abel? This is Allison's teacher. She and another student got into a physical altercation. Could you or her father come in?" she asked. I sighed, "Yes, I'll be there soon." I told her and hung up. I called Nate and told him that I was going to the school. I drove to the school and parked in the parking lot. I sighed and got out of the car, walking to the front door.

     I hit the buzzer. "Name?" the lady in the office asked. "Maelynn Abel." I replied. "Come on in." I opened the door and walked into the office. "Ms. Abel, in there please." she said. I nodded and walked into the principal's office. In there already were the principal sitting behind the desk, Allison and a little boy and his father. "Ms. Abel, I'm glad you could join us." the principal said as I sat down next to Allison, setting my purse on the floor. 
     "What's this about?" I asked. "He started it, mom!" Allison said to me. "What happened?" I asked her. "He stole my phone and wouldn't give it back." she told me. "And she pushed me down." the boy said. "You shouldn't have stolen my stuff." Allison said to him. "Okay, what are you thinking punishment-wise?" the man asked. "Well Joseph, a three day suspension should do it." the principal said. We nodded and got up. Allison and I walked out to the car and just before I got into the car I heard someone calling my name. I turned around and saw him running toward me holding my purse. 
     He reached me and held out my purse. I took it from him, "Thank you." I said. He nodded and turned around to walk back to his car with his son. I silently debated stopping him and telling him what a horrible father he is for leaving his child all those years ago but stopped myself instead. I quietly got into the car and started it. I drove home without a word and pulled into the parking lot. We got out of the car and walked into the building and to the elevator. 
We got into the apartment and I walked into the living room where everyone was. "Nate, can I talk to you for a moment?" I asked. He paused the game and followed me into the bedroom. He closed the door. "Allison was suspended today." I said. "What? Why?" he asked. "She and another kid got into a fight." I replied, wiping my eye. "Are you okay?" he asked. I took a breath and looked down at the floor. "I talked to him." I said. "Who?" he asked. "My father." He hugged me as I cried a little more. "Nate, I'm fine." I said. "Are you sure?" he looked down at me. I nodded, kissing his cheek and walking back out to the living room.

     I looked through all of the drawers in the bathroom and walked out. "Nate, have you seen my red lipstick?" I called, looking around the bedroom. "No, why?" he called back. "Can't find it!" I yelled. I picked up my purse and dumped it out onto the bed. I looked through the pile of shit and smiled, picking up the tube of red lipstick. I looked in the mirror and put it on. I noticed something in the pile and turned around to get a better look. I sat down and picked it up. "Hey, you ready?" Nate asked, walking in. "You guys go, I'll meet you there." I replied. He kissed my head. "Okay, I'll see you when you get there then, love you." he said. "Love you too." I said as he walked out.
