Chapter Six: Marie

Next Saturday, I set a peanut butter and jelly sandwich in front of Emily and put a cut up one in front of Ethan. I give both of them a cup of milk and then glance down at my phone.

We have a giant family group chat of all of my family that lives close, all of Danny's family that lives close, and everyone's friends.

Megan sent a text in it.

Megan: whats everyone doing today? We need to have a family get together. I haven't seen some of you in months *cough* Danny *cough*

Hubby: I'm working

Caleb: no you're not, you're texting

Hubby: so? When you're your own boss, you can go on your phone

Beatrice: actually that widow that's giving you five million is your boss

Dad: she's right

Danny sends back an eye roll emoji.

Abby: I'm not doing anything. Addison really wants to see Emily though

Megan: Justin could play with some kids his age. Grace, are the kids sick?

Me: no they're fine

Kyle: dan when are you coming back?

Hubby: soon

Caleb: what's "soon"

Hubby: within the next two weeks

Dad: why are you being so vague

Me: because he's stubborn and wont tell me when hes coming back

Megan: we need to hang out you guys. When is everyone available?

Garret: Abby and I are home with Addi doing nothing. We're available all day and tomorrow

Lucas: Justin is playing alone and Megan is eating ramen and I'm trying to convince her to eat it with hot sauce

Lucas: basically we're available all day and all day tomorrow

Beatrice: Grace? Are you able to do stuff today?

Me: yeah

Danny: :(

Abby: if ya wanna penetrate your wife, come home

Me: omg Abby stop

She sends a shrugging emoji and I roll my eyes.

Abby: I'm kidding...so are we hanging out today?

Beatrice: yes. Who's house?

Abby: Grace and Danny's

Kyle: Danny and Grace

Lucas: Grace and Danny

Me: why does everyone pick my house

Abby: because you have a boat and you live on the ocean and your house is big

Me: but what if it's dirty

Miley: bullshit. Send a pic of your kitchen table

I step back.
