BEEP…. BEEP…BEEP…..SLAP!
I opened my purple eyes and brushed my black hair out of my eyes, took a deep breath and looked around at my surroundings. Still unclear, but recognizable, I reached for my black glasses and slipped them on top of my nose and got up prepared for a day of "enjoyment".
As I was buttoning my shirt, my bedroom door flung open revealing an impatient ten-year old. "MOM! We are going to be late for school AGAIN, If you do not hurry up!" She yelled. I smirked and replied "Fine Mother." My little ten year old rolled her pretty blue eyes and walked out of the room, but I could still hear her muttering to herself, "And I thought the kids were suppose to be immature…." I laughed slightly at her comment. Then finished getting ready myself.
After I finished slipping my shoes on, I left out of my room and headed toward the kitchen where my daughter was eating cereal. "Finally!" She said, and got up and headed to grab her backpack.
"Don't forget, Lilly, you are getting picked up by your father today instead of me." I said yelled as she walked down the hall. "Ya… ya…." She yelled back. I sighed and chuckled, then looked down at the papers on my counter, the divorce papers. I sighed, and picked up my daughter's cereal bowl setting it in the sink before heading out the door with my daughter as westarted our walking journey to her school. Half of the walk there was quiet then Lilly decided to speak up, "Why are you and Daddy get a divorce?" She asked randomly. I was a bit shock by her random question, "Umm…. That's kinda hard to explain sweetheart…" I said sighing. "Don't you guys love each other?" she asked looking up at me with her long black pigtailed hair going into her face. "At one point… Yes…" I said looking down at her. "Not now?" She asked, raising her eyebrow at me, with a sad look on her face. I looked straight ahead and sighed, "Honey…. We shouldn't talk about this right now…" I said still not making eye contact with my daughter, I only heard a sad sigh come from my daughter's lips.
A couple minutes later we finally made it to Hope Community Elementary Public School. (A: I dont know if that is a real school) We stopped I looked down at my daughter and got down to her height, "Okay, Bye Sweetie, I will pick you up tomorrow Evening." I said kissing her cheek. "Ok bye mom" she said looking down. Now i felt bad about our conversation, "Lilly... look at me." I said, grabbing her chin and making her look me in the eye. "It's NOT your fault..." I said looking at her with conern and love. She just nodded, I then pulled her into a hug after a few seconds she finally returned it. "It will NEVER be your fault for what is happening to your family... okay?" I said, hugging her with everything i had in me. "I know mommy..." she said then let go, wiping the tears from her eyes... and backing away then making her way up the steps of the school, "Love you" I said, she looked back at me "I love you too, mom..." she then went inside.I stood there for a minute, rethinking our previous conversation to myself and then continued down the streets of New York to my job as a designer's assistant down the street of the school.
As I was walking my phone started to ring, I grabbed it out of my purse, and looked at who it was, Jess. I picked it up, "Hello?" I asked. "SAM! Where the HELL are you?" She yelled, I pulled away my phone from my ear. "Walking to the office right now… why?" I asked with a bit of a sour attitude. "Lee is getting impatient and keeps asking where you are! So I suggest you get your butt over here and FAST!" She said, then hung up. I sighed, that's just my life...
Pretty soon, I was walking into the main office of Lee Designs,(A: I dont think that company is real either)you see I am a intern/assistant for the world famous Lee Francess. Lucky huh? Ya…not really… being a designers assistant can be... difficult. "Sam there you are!" said Jess, running toward me. I raised my eyebrow at her,"What now?" I asked, putting my hand on my hip, waiting for an answer. "She is freaking out! She wanted me to tell you to get her coffee, but I forgot to tell you when i was on the phone with YOU!" Jess yelled, I looked around and everyone was staring at us. I put my hands on her shoulders, trying to calm her down. "Why are you freaking out? I amthe one who is going to get my butt fired because I never got her coffee!" I said. Jess looked around and grabbed the cup of coffee that Lisa, the calls operator, was holding and handed it to me. "GO!" She said well pushing me toward Lee's office. "What? I am not giving her a cup of used- SAMANTHA MASON!" I stopped my sentence and looked over, and the devil herself was standing there. "Oh thank God! You brought my coffee!" Lee said well walking over and taking it out of my hands. "Uhh…" I was about the something but Jess hit me in the arm, I closed my mouth. "I need you to run this to the main desk in the lobby for delivery in the morning" Lee said handing me this mid-sized package and taking a sip of the used coffee. "Ok I will be right on it.." I said heading out the door and to the main hall before Lee could yell at me about the "awkward" taste of her coffee.
I walked up the the front desk, where my friend George was sitting and waited for my turn. "Hey George" I said a few minutes later after finally reaching the front of the line. "Hey Sam." He answered back, not looking up from his computer. "Miss Lee making you run around like a chicken with its head cut off again?" he asked looking up and smirking. "Not at the moment… but probably later today.." I said setting the package on the desk in front of me, resting my arms on top of it. He smiled and chuckled a bit. "So how is life?" he asked. I sighed, and only answered with "Stressful...", he looked up at me again with eyes full of concern, then asked " How is Lilly taking the divorce?" George asked, taking the package and setting in behind him. "Not good…" I answered. "She is being a little dramatic about it…" I continued. "Of course she is… a ten year old with parents that are breaking up… I would be dramatic about it too…" He said, typing something into his computer. "Yea… I know…" I said sighing and leaning against the hip-tall desk. "I just wish she didn't have to go through this..." I continued. He nodded, "How is he doing?" George asked. "How should I know? I don't speak to him anymore, the last time I did was a couple weeks ago." I said, looking around making sure no one was listening. "Still cheating?" He asked. I looked at him and crocked my eyebrow, "Well not on me… anymore…" I said, bitting my lip. Before George could answer, I said, "I better get back up there before Lee has HUGE fit… Bye George... see you later." I said walking away. "Bye Sam! Say Hi to Lilly for me!" I looked back at him and nodded, before turning around and heading back to the evil witch of the west's office.
