"Mum, I'm late" Emma screamed as they arrived at the school.
"You are not, the bell is just about to ring" Jac said.
"Come with me, if it rings before I get there I will get into trouble" Emma complained.
"For god sake Emma, just hurry up" Jac said jumping out the car. They had just got to the school gates when the bell rang.
"Run" Jac said and Emma ran off. She got about 4 steps before turning around and running back to Jac to give her hug. Jac was slightly surprised.
"Thank you" Jac said before encouraging Emma to run on. Emma went into school and they were all sat down at their tables. Emma was at the blue table.
"So, year 2 I want you to draw me a picture of your family while Year 3s are going to PE with the other year 3 class." The teacher said and everyone got to work. Emma drew a picture of her and Jac outside their house and then Jac and Bonnie at another house and then a hospital.
"How do you have 3 homes?" One of the girls asked.
"Well, I live with mum and then my dad lives with his girlfriend Bonnie and then my Uncle Elliot and auntie Mo work at the hospital with my mum and dad" Emma said.
"What your mum and dad don't live together" Another asked and Emma shook her head.
"Really, that's weird you need a mum and a dad to make a family" One said.
"Well, I do have a mum and a dad" Emma said.
"Yeah, but that doesn't count as they don't live together. You can't have both of them love you if you only live with one" She said.
"But I have a bedroom at my dad's" Emma explained. They laughed.
"You won't for long, it won't take long and then your dad and his girlfriend will have a baby and then you will be forgotten about" She said.
"No I won't, my dad loves me" Emma said and the girls just left it. Emma was now starting to doubt herself. Maybe her dad wasn't going to love her forever. What if he and Bonnie had a baby, would she be forgotten about? She spent the rest of the day working quietly, she couldn't get her mind off her mum or dad leaving her. Because she lives with her mum more does that mean her mum loves her more and her dad doesn't want her. Or does it mean that soon she isn't going to get to spend as much time with her mum as she has to love her dad too. The whole day all these thoughts were going through her head.
Soon it was the end of the day and Emma stumbled out of the school. She was a bit tired and confused. She noticed Jac's car and crossed the road and jumped into the car.
"What's wrong with you?" Jac asked.
"I'm really tired" Emma said. The 6 year old stared out the window daydreaming and thinking about the day. They arrived at the hospital and Emma jumped out the car. She instantly grabbed onto her mum's hand something which she didn't normal do. Jac usually had to cling onto Emma's wrist when they crossed the road.
"Do you want me to get your spare clothes out the back of the car so you can get changed into something more comfortable" Jac asked and Emma nodded. Jac always kept a spare outfit in her car in case something happened which meant Emma needed to change. Jac grabbed the leggings and long top before they walked into the hospital.
"Come on, let's get you changed" Jac said.
"But what if someone walks in" Emma asked.
"Emma, you are 6 years old, you have nothing to hide" Jac said sitting down in front of Emma and pulling off her pinafore and tights. She helped the girl step into the her black leggings and then she pulled off her polo shirt and was just getting her greeny blue baggy baseball style top ready to place over her head.
"Quick Mum, I don't want people to see my boobs" Emma said and Jac laughed putting the top of.
"You don't have to worry you don't have any boobs" Jac said gently placing her hand on her daughter's ribs.
"Do you want to have a bit of a sleep" Jac asked and Emma nodded. Emma got up and lay on the sofa. Jac instantly felt bad that her daughter didn't have a blanket or anything to comfort her so she got out and walked out the room.
"Mummy, where are you going?" Emma asked.
"I'll just be back in a minute" Jac said and Emma nodded. Jac soon returned with a blue blanket. She placed the blanket over Emma and made sure the girl was covered.
"You go to sleep now, I'm just doing some paper work" Jac said and Emma nodded. She quickly drifted off. She felt like she had just closed her eyes when she was being shaken.
"Come on, baby it's time to go home" Jac said and Emma moaned.
"You won't sleep tonight unless you get up now" Jac said and Emma started to get up before she had another idea.
"Up, please" Emma pleaded. Jac sighed.
"Okay but just this once" Jac said picking Emma up and placing her on her hips. She carried the small girl to the car and placed her in her booster seat.
They got home and Jac made tea. After tea Emma then had a bath before it was nearly time for her to go to bed.
"Come on, my little tired girl" Jac said guiding Emma to her bed. She placed the girl in her bed and kissed her on the head before leaving.
Jac went down the stairs and watched the TV for a couple of hours before going to bed. She had finally gotten to sleep. Meanwhile Emma had been sleeping but she had been dreaming about her mum and dad and them leaving her. She was tossing and turning and woke up dripping in sweat. Suddenly she felt the bed under her go wet. She couldn't believe it, she hadn't had an accident since she was 2 and getting potty trained. She wept in shock, her mum would be so angry. She climbed out the bed and managed to get the sheet off the bed and she dragged it and her duvet down the stairs to the laundry room.
Jac woke up after hearing noises from down the stairs. She ran down the stairs in a panic and noticed the laundry light was on. She soon noticed the little girl standing there.
"Emma what the hell are you doing?" Jac shouted.
"I'm sorry mummy, I really am" Emma said starting to cry again. Jac instantly felt bad and knelt down to her daughter's height.
"It's okay sweetie, just tell mummy what is wrong" Jac asked nicely.
"I was scared and then I had an accident" Emma said.
"Oh baby, it's okay" Jac said pulling Emma into her arms.
"Let's go and get you cleaned up" Jac said carrying Emma into the big bathroom. She quickly gave the girl a bath and then carried her into her room.
"What were you scared about" Jac asked placing Emma on her bed and climbing in the other side.
"That you and Daddy were going to leave me" Emma said starting to cry again.
"Sweetie, I'm not going to leave and neither is daddy" Jac said.
"But at class one of the girls said that mummy and daddy have to live together and that Daddy and Bonnie are going to have a baby and leave me. And then you will get stressed and leave me too" Emma said.
"Sweetie, me and your dad don't live together because we don't love each other anymore but we still love you the same. In fact I love you even more because I have more love to give to you" Jac said ticking Emma and the girl giggled.
"Come on then, baby let's get to sleep" Jac said holding Emma close to her. Emma nodded.
"I'm sorry mum" Emma said.
"Sh, sleep time and I know I'm sorry I shouldn't have shouted at you" Jac said and Emma nodded silently scooting closer to Jac before slipping into a deep sleep.
