Just as I was about to tuck Chase into be my phone started ringing, I looked up at the clock seeing that it was about eight o’clock at night.

“Hi Mumma. “I heard Darcy smile into the phone, at least she isn’t sad anymore.

"Hi baby, Chase is here with me.I’m sorry I left."

“How is he? “She asked.

"He’s good.” I said, nodding my head.

“Tell him I love him. “She said.

"Mumma who’s on the phone? “Chase asked.

"It’s Darcy baby."

"Can I talk to her? “He question, sitting on the bed next to me.

"He wants to talk to you."I said, before handing Chase the phone

“Hi Darcy.” He said, with the biggest grin on his face.

“I miss you baby sis.”He said, resting his head on my lap.

“I’m coming over to stay with you.”Chase said, smiling up at me, whilst I stroked his hair.

"Nana an pappa are going away."

"Who’s Trevor. “Chase said, with a confused with a puzzle expression plastered across his delicate features.

"Okay, and Harry? “He asked.

"Oh."

“Is unkiAndrew there with you?”Chase asked.

"Mumma Darcy wants to talk to you."Chase said, handing me back the phone.

"Hi baby."

“Mumma why did you lie to Chase?”

"Baby it’s complicated."

“But Mumma you taught me that lying isn’t nice.”

"I know baby. Mumma made a mistake."

“Mumma why is Chase coming to live with us?”

"Nanna and grandpa are going away on holiday, so Chase gets to come and live with us."I said, tickling Chase’s sides.

“I know but where’s he going to sleep?”

"The spare room.” I said,

“Does that mean we get to go shopping? “She asked, her voice seeming excited.

"Yeah baby.” I said, looking over at Chase who was playing on the ground with his toys.

“Okay Mumma. I love you; do you want to talk to Harry? “She asked.

"Yes please baby.” I replied,

“Okay. “She said, I could hear some shuffling before I heard his voice.

“Hello?”

“Harry, I know you’re probably wondering why I left so suddenly but I had to go see my mother. “I said.

“Okay...”

“I needed to go see my son who’s now coming to live with me next month. “I said, taking a deep breath. “His name is chase.” I added, hesitantly.

“Right…”

“Look I’m sorry for doing that but I had to go, and I didn’t want Darcy to have to deal with my mother, seeming as for some strange reason they don’t get along that well” I said, before letting out a slight chuckle.
