Fallen Angel

I need some therapy pt 1

***

I woke up to the soud of light music playing downstairs and a strong scent of food creeping through the cracks of my bedroom door.

Praying over the day, I made my way to the bathroom to freshen up.

Coming out a few minutes later, I finally checked my phone, and it was already noontime. No missed calls from Ebenezer and a message from my secretary.

Walking down the stairs, mama was setting up the dinning area for lunch with Israel in his bassinet cooing.

"Hi mama" I said walking over to hug her,

"Good afternoon my darling, did you rest well"? she questioned.

"Surprisingly yes, I haven't slept this well in so long, I felt as though I could sleep for an eternity " I replied.

I went to the bassinet to pick up my baby.

"Oh Issy, I missed you so much, did you miss mummy"? I said in my baby voice kissing him gently, receiving his dribble over my mouth. (it's gross I know but you kind of get used to it).

I sat down with him on the table and mum prepared a plate and placed it in front of me, as well as a glass of water.

We to talked over the table and discussed some important matters.

She had told me that dad caught an early flight overseas for some business and she mentioned leaving to go to the markets with some of her friends, so it was just going to be me and Issy at home.

After grandma had left, Israel decided that it would be a smart idea to take a nap, so it was really just me, a lone wolf .

I had nothing to do here, usually at home I'd be cleaning or doing laundry but mum's house was clean and organised already .

Having no other options I sat on the couch and flicked through Netflix for a movie until Issy woke up from his nap.

I grabbed a few snacks before making my way to the lounge room.

After scrolling for almost fifteen minutes, I finally found one and played it.

Half way into the movie, my phone began to ring, I quickly ran towards it, afraid that Israel would wake up from it.

Without look at the caller ID I picked up the phone and answered, "hello"?

"You know who this is" the voice snarled over the line. The voice sounded familiar but yet unrecognisable.

"Sorry I don't, but could this be that Shanice girl that claimed to be my husband's girlfriend" I said sardonically. She isn't going to get the last laugh out of me I thought.

The call went quiet for a second then I immediately ended the call, not wanting to deal with her.

The same feelings began to buildup inside me again; 'I need to talk to someone' the thought came naturally into my mind.

I went on to finish watching the movie and coincidentally, Israel woke up from his sleep exactly when it ended. Talk about perfect timing.

I went upstairs to breast feed and change him into some new clothes, placing him in his carrier with his dummy and went to taken a quick shower and get dressed.
