Mother's day

Lauren woke up to find Callen not in bed and then she hears laughing and knows that he is making her breakfast. Their daughter Emma is about three-year old and things were changing in their family. She and Callen have had trouble since his recent case. She was hoping today would change her relationship again for the better.

The kids finally came into the room with her breakfast and Callen was nowhere in sight. She looks over to see her three-year old daughter crying.

"Mommy, are you and daddy getting divorced?" Emma asks her mother.

"No baby. We will work it out." She promises her daughter. "Come on and let's celebrate my day as a family."

Two hours later

It's been two hours since the kids had seen their father and Lauren was starting to get worried and so she tried her husband's cell. It went straight to voicemail and she left him a message. It was around 7pm when he finally got home and so the kids were in bed. She was waiting for him on the couch.

"Where have you been?" She asks her husband.

"No where that concerns you." He says coldly to her.

"What is going on with you?" She responds to him.

"Nothing. Why?" He counters back to his wife as he goes to get some beer.

"Because ever since your case, you have acted weird. Please talk to me." She begs her husband. "Our daughter thinks that we are getting a divorce."

"I don't know what you want me to say." He responds in a louder voice. "I am still here."

"what happen on that case?" She asks again as he gets up and walks out of the house and leaves. She heads upstairs while crying and climbs on his side of the bed. She just found out that she is pregnant again with their fourth child and not sure about her future with her husband at the time.

Sam's house

Callen arrived to his best-friend's house still upset about what is going on with him and Lauren. It's been really hard on him since the case that changed his relationship with his wife. He had found photos of the kids and Lauren being followed and he is trying to distance her from him to keep her safe. He heads to the door and knocks on it. Sam lets him stay there for the night.

"G. You need to tell her what's going on before you lose her for good." Sam informs him.

"I know but how can I tell her that I can't protect her or the kids from this person." He responds him with fear in his voice. Sam says good night and heads back upstairs leaving Callen in his thoughts. Both him and Lauren don't get that much sleep. They both wonder when things are going to change again.
