I love you

Chapter 4

Zach's mom's POV

I woke up that morning and went to get breakfast. Jeany kept me up all night with her crying. She's four for God's sake! She shouldn't be crying!

After about an hour after that thought I turned on the Tv. I wondered why Jeany hadn't come down yet. Oh yeah, I locked her room last night. Serves her right!

I made my way to her room. When I was almost there, there was a knock at the door.

I looked through the peep-hole. He was trying to sell me something. I went to get a water gun and answered the door.

I sprayed him and yelled "I don't want your stuff!"

I closed the door and turned on the Tv.

Jeany's POV

I heard my momma outside my door and in the kitchen. I heard her yell at the man. Why didn't she unlock my door?

My tummy was rumbling. I wanted food!

"Mommy!" I said loudly. No answer.

I sat down in my bed and stared out the window.

I started banging on the door. I was hungry and needed to go to the bathroom. I didn't want to yell cause then I'd get in trouble.

"Momma! I'm hungry and I gotta go potty!"

I heard footsteps coming closer. my mom opened the door.

"Why were you banging on the door? If you break this door, I swear!"

She let me go and I went to the bathroom. I walked downstairs to find all the breakfast cleaned up.

"Mommy, where's the breakfast?"

"I already ate and cleaned. If you want to eat, you can cook it."

"Okay..."

"Don't forget to clean up! If you don't you're staying the entire day in your room! No food, no bathroom! You understand?"

"Yes ma'am."

"Good."

Jay's mom's POV

I woke up sad, I was lonely. I tried to call Jay. No connection! I couldn't get in touch with my baby!

I got ready. Maybe I'd go to town today! Last night I decided not to move by the way. I couldn't!

I ate, grabbed my purse and got in the car. I checked my appearance in the car mirror.

I had my blond hair in curls at my shoulders. My freckles were looking good, I applied some red lipstick and put on my sunglasses.

I wore a wrap around red dress and some black flats. I felt confident. I missed Jay! She would always tell me how I looked.

My brown eyes started to water. I held them back and breathed so I wouldn't ruin my makeup.

In town

I was at the mall today. I went shopping and ate lunch.

When I was throwing my trash away, this good looking man, about my age, ran into me and I spilled my water on my dress.

"Oh I'm so sorry!" He said.

"Oh no, it's not your fault."

He grabbed some napkins for me and I tried off the best I could.

"I'm Jeremy Parker by the way." He said.

"I'm Michele Blakely. Nice to meet you."

My daughter's last name is Smith but Blakely is my maiden name. When my hubby died I switched back.

"Nice to meet you Michele. Can we talk sometime?"

"Sure!" I gave him my number and we walked around the mall together. We made plans in a few days.

I was so much less lonely now thanks to Jeremy!

In case you were wondering, I did tell him about Jay and my past husband.

This was going to turn out great! I could already tell!
