I was exhausted I'd been up all night with Sofia because she was nervous about starting preschool today. Which didn't even happen much to my chagrin, she was too nervous and the only reason I was doing it was for socialization which I know is important but at this point I was too tired to even try to push it. I was going back to college in less than two months and I wanted to get her settled into the preschool before I started back but I guess that wasn't going to happen. I was slowly getting into the swing of things but I still didn't know what I wanted to do with my life. Everything was all up in the air still because I didn't even know why I was bothering going back to college, at this point everything felt so pointless.

When we woke up we went to Starbucks for drinks because it's her absolute favorite place to go, she has an obsession with their hot chocolate and she loves their croissants. When we walked into the Starbucks, Sofia ran straight up to the front of the line to order her drink, by this point she had her ordered memorized and wasn't even afraid to order by herself. I followed behind her and while I was paying I noticed that she had wandered off. I finished paying quickly and looked around for her only to find her talking to a stranger, albeit a gorgeous stranger, but a stranger nonetheless. I paused and stared at the woman for a second, caught in a daze, she was surrounded by books and I guessed she was probably studying.

I shook my head and walked over to them. "Hi, I'm Callie. I am so sorry that she just walked over and interrupted your studying. I swear she knows better."

"But, mommy, she likes surgery, too. I saw it on one of her books and I asked her 'bout it and she said she's gonna be a surgery-on. Just like you, momma!" Sofia said excitedly.

"You're going to be a surgeon?" The hot blonde asked and without thinking I nodded in response.

"Yeah—I mean no, I mean, maybe. It's a lot harder to have a definite plan when you have a kid. I was originally going to go to medical school and go on to be an orthopedic surgeon but now I'm not sure if I have the time, you know?" I said, kind of drifting off at the end of what I was saying.

"I get it but even with this adorable little beauty," she said looking at Sofia, "you should still work for your goal. I have no doubt you can do both. Even if it is harder than doing it with a kid. I'm Arizona, by the way, it's nice to meet you." I heard my name called and as I turned to get our drinks, she stopped me and handed me a napkin with a phone number scrawled on it. "Text me and maybe we can get together one night after she goes to sleep."

"Yeah, I'll text you." I said as I walked over to get our drinks. After I got our drinks I turned to leave instead of picking a table to stay at like I normally would because I needed to think over what just happened.

As I buckled Sofia into her carseat I kept going over what had just happened in my head and I didn't know what to think. I mean, she gave me her number but what does that mean? I don't even know what to do with it. I shut the door to the backseat and got in my seat up front, I tried to push the thoughts of her out of my mind because I knew she was distracting me. "Ready to go to the park, Sof?" I asked Sofia.

"Mmhm," she mumbled sleepily.

"Are you too sleepy, baby? Do you want to go home and go to sleep?" I asked while looking behind me and I saw her trying to keep herself awake. "Let's go home and we can have daddy come over later after you're nap, okay?"

She nodded sleepy before taking a bite of her croissant. When we got back to my apartment I noticed that she was already asleep so I picked her up to take her into the apartment, carefully closing the car door behind us, trying to be careful not to wake her from her sleep because as adorable as she was she had a tendency to get crabby when she was woken up.

When we reached my apartment door I carefully reached into my pocket to get the keys and I unlocked the door as quietly as possible only waking her a little. "Shh, baby, it's okay," I calmed her before entering the apartment, closing and locking the door behind us. I took her to her room and laid her down in her bed. After she was tucked in I headed back to the living room and grabbed my laptop off of the side table. I was so conflicted about what to do with my future and talking about it today definitely didn't help.
