CHAPTER EIGHTEEN | DANCES AND NEWS

A Daughter is just a little girl who grows up to be your best friend. A mother is she who can take the place of all others but whose place no one else can take. — Cardinal Mermillod

"Did you have fun in dance class?" I asked Kassandra as I carried her to the car.

"Yes, I did spinning circles." She said.

"That's great; when we get home, will you show me?" I said.

"Yes." She said.

We made it to the car, and I put her in her seat and buckled her belt, and got in the driver's seat. I made my way out of the parking lot.

"Mommy, I want music, please." She said.

"Okay, what do you want to listen to?" I asked.

"Replay!" She yelled excitedly.

"Replay it is," I said, picking Zendaya and searching up Replay.

Make it stop
Sound so good I can't take no more
Turn it down, turn it up
I don't know, and I don't know (know)
But don't stop, don't move
Just keep it there (right there)
Keep it right there, keep it right there

I wanna put you on repeat, play you everywhere I go, e-e-everywhere I go, play you everywhere I go
Put you on repeat, play you everywhere I go, e-e-everywhere I go, play you everywhere I go

Yeah
Wanna put this song on replay,
I can listen to it all day,
I can listen to you all day,
Hear you all day
Yeah
Wanna put this song on replay,
We can start all over again and again, yeah
Wanna put this song on replay

Don't stop,
Turn it on, turn it up, make it louder
I don't wanna miss a single thing,
I wanna hear every melody, yeah.
B-b-b-b-beating, beating,
Beating so loud, you can feel it (feel it)
B-b-b-b-beating, beating, beating
Beating for you

I wanna put you on repeat, play you everywhere I go, e-e-everywhere I go, play you everywhere I go
Put you on repeat, play you everywhere I go, e-e-everywhere I go, play you everywhere I go

We started singing along to the song.

"Feel it all, feel it all crashing down (down, down) I'm so lost, I'm so lost in your sound
Yeah, wanna put this song on replay (put this song on replay) on replay. Lis-listen to you all day, to you all day! Yeah! Yeah!" We sang.

The song ended, and Kassandra requested another song but by Kelly Clarkson. My daughter's taste in music is all over the place.

I put on what doesn't kill you makes you (Stronger).

You know the bed feels warmer
Sleeping here alone
You know I dream in color
And do the things I want

You think you got the best of me
Think you had the last laugh
Bet you think that everything good is gone
Think you left me broken down
Think that I'd come running back
Baby you don't know me, cause you're dead wrong

What doesn't kill you makes you stronger
Stand a little taller
Doesn't mean I'm lonely when I'm alone
What doesn't kill you makes a fighter
Footsteps even lighter
Doesn't mean I'm over cause you're gone

Kassandra started singing.

"What doesn't kill you makes you stronger, stronger Just me, myself and I What doesn't kill you makes you stronger Stand a little taller Doesn't mean I'm lonely when I'm alone You heard that I was starting over with someone new But told...." She sang before she got interrupted by my phone ringing.

The Bluetooth device announced that Brie was calling.

I pressed to answer.

"Hello, Brie," I said.

"Hey, Shaniece," Brie said.

"Hi, BriBri!" Kassandra screamed.

"Oh, my, is that my favorite girl. Hi, Kassandra!" Brie said.

"Yup, I just picked her up from dance class, and she has this new move that she calls the spinning circles," I said.

"That's nice. I want to learn the spinning circles." Brie said.

"I'll teach you, BriBri," Kassandra said.

"Well, then why don't you guys come over now so I can learn that dance and I need to talk to you, shaniece," Brie said.

"About what?" I asked.

"I'm pregnant!" She said excitedly.
