Chapter 1

One day 39 year old Sarah Braverman was back home in Berkeley doing Camille's list of chores she had in the kitchen to remind herself when Sarah starts doing them for her and is coming down the stairs with the laundry basket.

"hey." he says kind of loudly freaking her out since she wasn't expecting him to be there

"Adam." she says confused

"what are you doing?" he wonders

"Mom's list of chores she had just sitting in the kitchen." she tells him

"oh." he says

"yeah so what are you doing home from work so early in the day?" she wonders

"just came for lunch." he tells her

"oh." she says and starts to walk over to the couch carrying the basket

"so how are you Sarah?" he wonders

"I'm...I'm fine Adam and you?" she wonders dropping the basket onto the couch

"also fine." he tells her

"and the fam?" she wonders

"thier good too." he tells her

Sarah smiles "awe well that's good." she says

"yeah, so how are Drew and Amber?" he wonders

"thier fine." she tells him

"still doing well in school?" he wonders

Sarah just shrugs and scofts "well I wouldn't exactly say that." she tells him

"What, why not?" he wonders

"well I get calls from thier school principals like everyday now so I wouldn't consider everything fine." she tells him

"well maybe you should pull them out and move them back here to Berkeley and start over start fresh a new slate." he tells her

"What?" Sarah questions like he's crazy and that's the most obsurd thing she's ever heard

"well it could help them you don't know." he tells her

"I do know Adam I know my kids and I am not moving them back here so they can hate me even more than they do now." she tells him
