BEEP…. BEEP…BEEP…..SLAP!

I opened my amethyst eyes, took a deep breath and looked around at my surroundings. Still unclear, but recognizable, I reached for my thick-black glasses and slipped them on top of my nose, as they slumped off a bit. I slow sat up and stressed as I got prepared for my day.

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 rolled my eyes and replied "Fine Mother." My little ten year old smirked 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 a few minutes, I finished slipping my shoes on, and left my room toward the kitchen where my daughter was eating cereal. "Finally!" She said, and got up and headed to grab her backpack that was by the door.
"Don't forget Lilly, you are getting picked up by your father today instead of me." I yelled as she walked down the hall.

"Yea… yea…." She yelled back. I laughed slightly as looked down at the paper on the counter; I slowly picked up them up. The divorce papers, I sat there holding the papers for a few minutes. I sighed, before hearing my daughter yell for me. I quickly headed for the door, and held my daughter's hand as we walked to her school.

Most of the walk was silent, 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 kind of hard to explain sweetheart…" I said sighing, trying not to look her in the eye.

"Don't you guys love each other?" she asked looking up at me. "At one point… Yes, I did…" I said looking down at her.

"Not now?" She asked, raising her eyebrow at me. I looked straight ahead and sighed, "Honey…. We shouldn't talk about this right now…" I said, once again not making eye contact with my daughter.

A couple minutes later we finally made it to Hope Community Elementary Public School. "Okay, Bye Sweetie, I will pick you up tomorrow Evening." I said kissing her cheek. "Ok bye mom" she said walking up the steps of the school and into the building.

I stood there for a minute, rethinking our whole conversation.

I don't love him anymore… and I never will…. I thought to myself, a tear dripping down my face, and continued down the street to my job as a designer's assistant down the street of the school, in New York City.

As I was walking down the crowed streets of New York, 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.

"Walking to the office right now… why?" I asked. "Lee is getting impatient and keeps asking where you are! So I suggest you get your butt over here and FAST!" She said, and then hung up.

I sighed, that's my life…

Pretty soon I was walking into the main office of Lee Designs, you see I am a intern/assistant for the world famous Lee Frances.

Lucky huh? Ya…not really… being a designer's assistant can be difficult.

"Sam! Oh thank God! There you are!" said Jess. I raised my eyebrow at her. "What now?" I asked, putting my hand on my hip.

"She is freaking out! She wanted me to tell you to get her coffee, but I forgot!" She yelled. I put my hands on her shoulders, trying to calm her down.

"Why are you freaking out?! I am the 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, pulling her sunglasses above her head, well walking over and taking it out of my hands.

"Uh…" 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.

"Ok I will be right on it..." I said, heading out the door and to the main hall again.

I walked up the front desk and waited.

"Hey George!" I said finally reaching the front of the line.

"Hello Sam." He answered back, keeping his eye on the computer.

"Miss Lee making you run around like a chicken with its head cut off again?" he asked looking up and smirking. "Yes! I don't think the entire time I have been working here, I have been in her office for more then ten minutes." I said setting the package on the desk in front of me. He smiled and chuckled a bit.

"So how is everything going?" He asked. I sighed, "Stressful, He is not making this easy." He nodded giving me a sympathetic look. "How is Lilly taking the divorce?" George asked, taking the package and setting in behind him. "Not good…" I answered.

"She keeps asking me questions about 'Why Mommy and Daddy don't love eachother anymore…" I continued.

"Of course she is… a ten year old with parents that are breaking up… I would be asking questions about it too…" He said, typing something into his computer.

"Yea… I know…" I said sighing.

"I better get back up there before Lee has huge fit, bye George! See you in a bit." I said, before he could say anything else.

"Bye Sam, say hi to Lilly for me!"he said as I started to walk away. I turned back around to him and nodded.
