Happiness is a luxury

Chapter 38

I lifted my top and looked in the mirror. There were stretch marks running across my stomach and baby fat. Yesterday was amazing, I had finally gotten to go home after a week in hospital. They had to make sure I was okay and the stitches didn't come lose. When I got home yesterday they threw a welcome home party for me like they did Aria. My mum was there and she apologized for not being allowed to stick around at the hospital.

Lydia had began to cry, I went to her cot and picked her up.Caleb was at work. He was finally out of the dodgy phone tech business and finally work with the apple company. The job was great for him he keeps telling me when he gets home. I rocked Lydia back and forth trying to calm her down. She slowly fell back asleep. I placed her back into her cot. 'What I'm I going to do with my life' I thought, would I be a home mum all the time or would I actually get a job in the future. I guess I could hold of a year and the go university or get a job. There was a knock on the door. I went over to open it. It was Alison and Grace. "Hey Alison, Grace." I said confused.

"You didn't show up at the grill so I thought something might be wrong." Alison said to Grace. I let them into the apartment. "No...Sorry I forgot we were going to meet." I said.

"Its fine." Alison explained. "So how is Lydia."

"She keeps crying, she just went back to sleep." I cleared.

"Maybe she is just super hungry all the time, thats how Grace was." Alison said.

"What do you mean?" I asked.

"When Grace was born, whenever she wasn't sleeping or constantly crying she was eating." She replied.

"But she is so calm and quiet look at her." I said.

"I don't know when we were in New York she wasn't as quiet as she is now. She isn't troubling at all which is good for me." She said. "Okay, I better get going my parents are probably wondering where I am."

"Okay thanks for stopping by, come back soon." I said as Alison got up and left.

We got home and went upstairs. I sat down next to Grace. "Grace why are you being so quiet, you were really loud and had lots of energy in New York." I said in a sweet tone.

"I...D..Dont like it here, I want to go back to New York."

"We can't do that. Do you understand?" I cleared. She gave me a small nod.

"Tomorrow your starting in your new nursury, you will make lots of friends." I said.

"But they wont be the same friends like New York." She cried.

"Your allowed to cry about these things, my little girls has been so strong. Some times your allowed to break. I will be here to put you back together." I explained. Grace cried herself to sleep in my lap. I picked her up and put her into bed. I sat down in bed next to Grace an pulled my phone from. I flicked through my messages and replied to them, then drifted to sleep.

I woke up to someone jumping on the bed."Wake Up...Wake Up." Grace chanted. "Hey, your being yourself again. Are you going to do this every morning?" I asked. "Yeah...Yeah...Yeah." She laughed.

"Do you want me to get you ready for nursury ." I asked.

"Yeah." She replied.

"Okay lets get you changed and ready for school." I said.

I grabbed her clothes which I had set out yesterday and got her changed into it. I then brushed her hair and got her to brush her teeth. We went downstairs and Mum was already sitting there. "This is a change your down here early today." Mum said.

"Today is Grace's first day in the new nursery." I said. "Where is Dad?"

"Honey...Me and your dad got divorced a couple of months after they supposedly found your body." She cleared.

"Oh." I sighed. "Grace what would you like for breakfast?"

"Jam..Jam..Jam." She chanted.

"Thats the first thing I've heard her say." Mum said.

"She was jumping on the bed to wake me up today, she back to normal." I giggled. I handed Grace some bread with Jam on it. She gobbled it up. I wiped the jam she had gotten around her mouth and then made our way to the nursury.
