The new day

253 19 2
                                    

The next morning I get up and see that Erik is not there I thought to myself

"Well he dose get up early"

I get up and go to the chamber room and brushed my hair and my teeth I go to the wardrobe where I find a blue dress

"It's perfect" I say to myself

I go back to the chamber room and undressed till I was in my slips I pulled my corset on to find I'm having trouble lacing it then I heard a voice behind me

"May I help?"

I turn around to see Erik standing there

"Yes please"

He laced me up and kissed me

"I have dinner ready down stairs and the kids are up"

I go down stairs to find Cozzet and Gustove eating there breakfast

"Hello mother" said Gustove

"Hello darling"

"Mommy" I hear running towards me

I turned around to a 6 year old hugging my legs

"Hello baby girl"

She smiles ear to ear I helped her cut her pancakes and we all sit for breakfast

"So what are we going to do today?" I asked

Erik was the first to speak of course

"I am going to teach Gustove more songs on the piano"

Then a pouty voice in the corner

"But Daddy I wanted to spend time with you"

I looked at Erik and he looks at me

"Erik you did promise her"

He looks down and his 6 year old daughter

"Cozzet you will have to wait music comes first

"Erik!!" I snapped

He looked up confused the 6 year old begins to cry and saying quietly

"Daddy doesn't love me"😭😭😭

That was it from Erik she always says that when she doesn't get her way it was kinda annoying

"Cozzet go to your room I will speak with you when I get there"

She gets up crying and runs to her room he looks at me

"Erik that was mean to say she has a bond with you too you never see her"

"She is fine I just need to talk to her, Gustove please do the dishes I will be back"

Gustove gets up and dose the dishes and Erik leaves the table but I follow not so far behind I hear their conversation

"Daddy you never spend time with me do you even love me"

That set Erik on a rampage

"COZZET OF COURSE I LOVE YOU"

he picks the kids up in his arms

"JUST BECAUSE I SPEND A LITTLE MORE TIME WITH YOUR BROTHER DOSE NOT MEAN I LOVE YOU ANY LESS"

Cozzet started to cry at Erik's words I saw Erik's face he started to cry

"I'm sorry Cozzet you should just know I love you just its a guy thing"

She nods her head, Erik puts her in his lap and sings till she calms down

"I have an idea Cozzet how about you and your mom do something like girls with girls and guys with guys"

She nods and says in a sad voice

"Do you think she will teach me to sing?"

Erik smiled

"Of course he will teach you to sing"

She smiles as big as she can

"Cozzet how about you and your mother go to the market today and get whatever you want and when you come back I'll spend time with you?"

"Okay daddy"

I ran trying not to break anything this time I go to the kitchen to find Gustove finishing the dishes

"Mother where were you?"

"I was..........in the chamber room Gustove".

Then Erik walked in with Cozzet in his arms she laughing. Erik set her down and walked over to me

"Will you please take her to the market and get her anything she wants?"

"Yes Erik I will"

I get Cozzets and I's coat and we head out but I heard a low whisper saying

"Christine your not that sneaky"

I looked behind me to see Erik laughing. when we got to the market I picked up some food for the house and took Cozzets to the toys she picked out a doll it has long brown curly hair and had brown eyes

"Mommy mommy!!"

"Yes Cozzet"

"She looks just like you"

Really she did we went and cheeked out and went on our way home

When we got there I saw Erik and Gustove playing the piano but you know what is strange I have not seen Tonya all day

"Erik?"

He looks at me

"Have you seen Tonya at all today?"

He shakes his head no we ran up the stairs as fast as we can and barged into to has room she is not there but we see a note that says

"I just want you guys to be happy with your kids and family I have left to go elsewhere in sorry"
~Tonya

I fall to the ground and start to cry Erik came to my side and was crying to I finally said some words during my sobbing

"Where.....did......she......go?"
