Sorry, sorry, sorry, sorry, sorry for the long wait yet again! How brilliant has Home and Away (Australian pace) been these past couple of weeks? I feel so sorry for Ricky now Brax is in jail, but I've gotta say, I love her relationship with Bianca, Heath and Casey…
"Look at you being all domesticated" Brax chuckled as he walked into the house as I finished vacuuming that morning
"Who else is gonna do it if I don't?" I inquired, raising an eyebrow at him "did Jacob get into school okay?"
"Yep, happy as Larry" he informed me "we got anything to eat? I'm starving"
"There might be some leftover pasta if you're lucky" I replied "I haven't been shopping yet"
"Can you pick up some of that ice-cream you got last time?" he questioned "Jacob and I loved it"
"Yeah, I noticed seeing as though you devoured the whole tub during the Scooby Doo movie" I chuckled "no wonder Jacob felt sick in the night"
He smiled at me and kissed me softly… "What do you have planned for today then?"
"I'm gonna go and do the grocery shopping, and then I've got some errands to run in Yabbie Creek. If you're staying in, can you make sure no-one makes a mess? I don't wanna come back to a bombsite" I replied
"Aye, aye, Captain" he informed me, smirking at me as I rolled my eyes
"I'll see you later" I sighed, kissing him softly before leaving the house
I made my way around the grocery store half-an-hour later. Stopping at the frozen food section, someone accidentally bumped into my shopping cart, hitting me in the side. Looking up, I sighed and swallowed as I came face-to-face with Tegan…
"Sorry, I'm such a klutz" she chuckled "is that for Brax?"
"What're you doing here, Tegan?" I questioned, placing the ice-cream into the cart
"Shopping, just like everyone else" she informed me "this is a grocery store, right?"
I nodded my head, signalling yes… "But I thought Brax told you to leave town? Wouldn't want Heath to find out about your little miscarriage now, would you?"
"He told you?" she inquired, raising an eyebrow at me
"Yeah, like he told you, he tells me everything" I informed her "and I've known him longer than you too so there's absolutely nothing you can say about him that would shock me"
I couldn't help but smile as she marched off in the other direction. Shaking my head and sighing, I continued shopping, making my way back to the Bay…
"Jacob, what're you doing home, baby?" I questioned, making my way over to my son who was lying on the sofa in a blanket
"He's not very well so the school sent him home" Brax informed me as he made his way out of the kitchen "they said they tried ringing you"
"My phone's on silent" I informed him "what's the matter, sweetie?"
"Tummy ache" he informed me, clutching at his stomach
"Has he had some medicine?" I asked Brax, raising an eyebrow at him
He nodded his head, signalling yes… "About fifteen minutes ago. I've been called into work, are you gonna be okay here on your own?"
I nodded my head, signalling yes, standing up straight and making my way into the kitchen with the shopping bags… "Before you go, can I have a word?"
"What's wrong?" he inquired, raising an eyebrow at me
"I bumped into our little friend at the grocery store" I informed him
"Tegan?" he asked
"The one and only" I replied
"What did she say to you?" he questioned
"Nothing, just that she was shopping and that she was a klutz because she bumped into my cart" I informed him
"Hopefully it was just an unlucky coincidence" he stated "I'll see you later, yeah?"
Nodding my head, I smiled as he kissed me softly and said his goodbyes to Jacob…
"So, buddy, do you wanna stay there and watch TV or do you wanna go for a sleep?" I asked
"Can I stay here for now?" he questioned
I nodded my head, signalling yes… "I'll be in here if you need anything, okay?"
"Thank you, Mummy" he replied as I began to unpack the groceries
So Tegan's still hanging around like a bad smell… I wonder why?
