"Cheyenne Leeanne Ryder!!" I took a peep out of my peephole in my front door. "I know you have Ashley in there!" I looked at my 15 year old child, that was sitting in the living room, watching her Saturday morning cartoon such as Garfield, Pokemon, etc. "Leave me alone! You know I get her every month around this time. Don't make me call the police!" You're probably wondering what happened between Damon and I. Well, it all started thirteen years after we got married.

~*Two Years Ago*~

"Honey! Are you picking the kids up after school?" Damon's voice rang throughout the house, asking me one question. "Yes, sweetheart! I'll be there as soon as they get let out." Our kids name is Ashley Renee Fizzy and Jayden Neil Fizzy. Ashley's 13 years old and Jayden is 10 years old. Damon was just about to leave for work, Ashley and Jayden for school. They went to Buckner Hall and are A honor students, along with being on the principles list. Damon worked at YouTube headquarters and I was a stay at home mother. I looked at the clock and noticed it was just barely 7 am. "Ashley, Jayden, you both need to head out for school." They nodded and grabbed their lunches and backpack. They gave me kisses on the cheek as they headed out.

I walked over to the front door and stood in the doorway, watching them board the bus. Since we live too close to the school, they can only get a ride out to the school but not back home. (This actually happened to me when I was in 8th grade. I'm a freshman in college now lol. At 22 years old.) I think it's stupid but that's how it is. I waved them goodbye as they waved in the windows of the bus. The bus left and I closed the front door. I walked back to the kitchen and started cleaning up the meals from breakfast. The house was already clean since the kids are of age to start helping around the house.

I went to the computer room and sat at the desk that the computer was sat on. I logged in and went straight to my college's website. I'm a sophomore in college, I'm only 23 years old but I decided to wait on going to college because I didn't think I would even go. I went to my classes page and checked what all was due soon.
Psychology 220: Module 3 assignment and test due January 29th.
Math 102: Module 3 assignment due January 25th.
Biology 101: Module 4 assignment due February 4th.
Criminal Justice 101: Module 2 assignment and test due January 29th.

Simple enough. It's only January 19th. I've got plenty of time but I always like to get ahead in classes. (True btw. I'm ahead in everything.) I have a GPA of a 4.0. I have to keep my grades up in order to be a neonatal nurse. For the next four to five hours, I worked on classes and even got ahead in some of them.

~*Five Hours Later*~

It's now one in the afternoon and my kids get home at three, Damon gets home at four. I had nothing else to do so I ended up watching a bit of Netflix. When I mean a bit of it, I mean two hours worth of Netflix. As soon as I knew it, the kids come running through the front door. "We're home!" I stopped my show and met them in the kitchen. "How was school, kids?" They smiled and went to the fridge for snacks. "It was good. We met a new friend!" I tilted my head but smiled anyways. So glad they're getting to know other people. "Who's your new friend?"

I heard a knock at the door and the kids started jumping up and down happily. "That's them!" Them? They ran to the front door and opened it wide. "Hey Bailey and Christofer!"

Oh shit.
