Hi, I just came up with this idea after watching Saturday's episode. Please review and tell me if I should continue :)

Characters

Zoe Hanna- age 36, she is clinical lead at Holby City, she is extremely busy with her new job and is still trying to juggle both working and looking after her daughters.

Eryn Hanna- aged 12, she is currently having problems working out where she stands she is still a little girl but she wants to be grown up. She needs her mum but she is so busy Eryn is finding it hard to find the time to talk to her. She is constantly moody when her mum is there but secretly she just needs to talk.

Lucy Hanna- Aged 10, she is quite shy and quiet. She is having problems at school with girls who used to be her friends but she doesn't want to annoy her mum, she is stressed enough with this new job.

Alannah Smith- 25 year old nanny, who looks after Eryn and Lucy when their mum is at work. She has an okay relationship with Lucy and a non-existent relationship with Eryn as she is sure she doesn't need someone to look after her.

Zoe had just had an extremely stressful evening and it was 9:30 when she arrived home. She had managed to help Tamasha and her sister and now she just wanted to go home. She arrived home and walked into the kitchen were Alannah was sitting reading a book.

"Thank you for looking after them. How were they?" Zoe asked.

"Eryn, very much the same she is in the living room watching TV. Didn't get much out of her apart from getting moaned at about some homework thing, I couldn't help her with. Lucy, was extremely quiet. She's just gone to bed but she seemed quite upset when I picked her up from school." Alannah replied. Zoe nodded and said thank you and they paid her for the week before going into the living room. Zoe kicked her shoes off and sat on the sofa next to her eldest daughter. She grabbed the blanket that was next to her and put it around them both.

"Mum?" Eryn asked and Zoe looked at her

"What happened to Safi" Eryn asked.

"What?" Zoe said, how did Eryn know about this.

"Well she text me asking if you were my mum and I said yes. Then she said to say thank you to you for saving her life and not making her like the others. And then she said something about Nina and Jasmine. And that Nina is in hospital or something" Eryn said obviously worried.

"Baby, how do you know Safi, Nina and Jasmine" Zoe asked.

"They are in my year at school. Safi's really nice but I thought she was on holiday. She said she had to go on holiday to be like her sister or something. What did she mean, mum?" Eryn said.

"Sweetie, something did happen but I don't think you'll want to know" Zoe said.

"Mum, tell me. I'm not a little kid" Eryn said.

"Okay, but you can't tell a single person about it" Zoe said and Eryn nodded her head.

"Well in their community they think that women should be circumcised." Zoe said

"I thought that only happened to boys. I don't get it" Eryn said.

"I know and it is more common in Jewish boys. But some places in Africa think girls should have it done too." Zoe said.

"That's horrible. Poor Safi but I still don't get it" Eryn said.

"It's hard to explain" Zoe said and then she got the laptop. She went on the computer and loaded up the BBC page which explained female circumcision.

"Mum that's horrible. Poor Safi, is that what happened to Nina and Jasmine" Eryn said.

"They were doing it the old fashioned way and we got there in time to save Safi but we're too late for Nina and Jasmine and Nina was bleeding badly but we managed to get her stable" Zoe said. She looked down at her daughter to see tears rolling down her face.

"Hey, it's okay. They are all okay now" Zoe said pulling Eryn closer to her.

"I can't image having to go through all that pain. It's such a shame Safi, Nina and Jasmine are all so nice they don't deserve to have to go through that" Eryn said into Zoe's chest.

"Oh baby. Right, go and get a movie and I'll be right back. I'm just away to check on your sister and get changed." Zoe said pulling Eryn away from her and she walked up the stairs and got changed before going into Lucy's room.

"Hi lulu, do you want to come down and watch a movie with me and Eryn" Zoe asked her daughter who was lying in bed. Lucy turned over and faced her mum and shook her head.

"Come on baby, we all need cheering up" Zoe said. Lucy nodded and pulled the cover off her.

"Do you want carried down" Zoe asked noticing how tired Lucy looked. Lucy nodded.

"Come here, baby. Do you want to talk about what's up?" Zoe asked.

"No, it's nothing. I'm just tired and I'm glad it's Friday" Lucy said.

"Okay, if you're sure. You do know you can talk to me about anything" Zoe said

Lucy nodded. They were all down the stairs and Eryn got the film started and they all cosied up on the sofa, Zoe in the middle with both her girls at either side of her. They watched "Just go with it" and by the end of the film both Zoe's girls were sound asleep she moved them to each end of the sofa and brought Eryn's duvet down from upstairs before going to bed herself.
