Dad said he was sorry about dinner and ordered us a pizza. Dustin nibbled on a piece but I wasn't hungry anymore.
I wanted to know why mom was crying.
Dad wouldn't tell us....
What happened?

"Kids," dad said walking out of his bedroom. "bedtime, I need you two to take the bus tomorrow, I'll text you if I can pick up from school other wise just ride the bus again."
"What's wrong with mom?" Dust asked.
Dad sighed. "Don't worry about it. Go to bed please."
We nodded and went to bed. We weren't going to sleep though.
A few minutes Dustin ran in and cuddled with me. He did this when mom and dad would fight. He didn't want to be alone. It didn't bother me....

Dad walked in like he always did to check on us and we were both still awake.
He sat on the floor next to my bed.
"Mom is okay, a friend of hers got in a car accident and is the hospital, it was just a lot to take in at once, she'll be okay. Just give her time. I'm going to take her to see her friend tomorrow so I can't take you two to school. Anymore questions?"
We shook our head.
"Go to sleep." He kissed our heads and left.
Moments later Dustin was asleep.
One of moms friends was Hannah's mom.... What if it was her?
I texted dad.
(C-Callie R-Ross)
C-which friend was in the accident?
R-I'm not sure
C- was it Hannah's mom?
R-I think it was a guy....
C-oh...
R-it's okay. Go to sleep.
C-can I sleep with you?
R-what about D?
C-he's sleeping
R- bring him
I woke up Dustin and we went to mom and dads room
Dad had a huge bed. We all fit, somehow.
I snuggled up to dad.
