We went to an expensive restruant and sat in one of those big circle booth, but the waitress still had to get us two chair. Everybody had come as in everybody I mean: Bex, Macey, Liz, Mom, Abby, Joe, Towsend, even Madame Dabney, along with a person that had graduated with Mom and was now a teacher, Carter, and then the two that had to sit in chairs were, Grace, and Bexs father, of course Lee and I went too.
The waitress had trouble keeping up with our orders and drink but we helped her remember them. Lee had to sit in my lap, her food was brought out first becuase it was ordered when the waitress asked us what drink she wanted.
"Umm this good, try some," She took her chicken strip and poked it in my mouth.
"Yep it is good could you move just a little so I can see my menu sweetie?"
"Yep," She said happily and scooted over about a centimeter luckily it was far enough.
When the waitress came back I told her that I would share with Macey since I knew she would not eat all of her salad and I finished Lees chicken strips.
There were four conversations going on and I wasn't a part of any of them Lee and I just smiled at each other as she drew different shapes on her crossword puzzle, it was good Mom and daughter bonding time. At one point while every body else was eating she sudenly picked up my hair and whispered in my ear, "Mommy I need to go potty," I silently laughed at the fact she was embrassed by it.
"Hey Bex and guys you think you could step out of the booth so I can go to the restroom?" I siad.
"Sure," Bex said.
"Yeah," Macey said getting up.
"Of course. Did you know the the average person drinks," Liz started, "Not now," Bex complained as I slide out of the booth with Lee she interjected, " 2 gallons per day weather from water or food or other things." Liz looked impressed.
"I bet they do," Abby said, returning from where she went to the bathroom , "Now I don't know how many times they go to restroom but whatever the number is multiply it by 2 and you'll get how many times pregnant people do."
I shook my head and smiled as I walked Lee to the bathroom. About the time she got her hands washed I got a call from Zach. I picked her up this time and I walked to the entrance, "Hello," I answered.
I thought I might hear a hi lovely, instead I realized Zach had butt dialed me. I heard a female voice saying, "Why you finally arrived."
"Yes sweetie, I did," He answered.
"I missed you," She said seductively that was followed by some kissing.
I gasped, no way this could not be true, there had to be some reasonable explanation maybe his cover was to be married, no that couldn't be right he only went to London to dead drop information, not on a real mission, he was headed to Paris for that. Still there is no way it could be true, right. I bite my lip and felt on the verge of tears.
"Mommy are you okay?" She sad leaning her forehead against my forehead.
"I'm fine," I said but my voice cracked as I closed the phone, "Walk over to the guys if they ask were I went tell them I went to the bathroom. Tell them that Mommy isn't feeling well," I said as my voice cracked some more," Also if they get up to come see about me, tell her that I said I wanted the boy expert, got it? Yes or No?"
"Yes Mommy and you really don't look to well," she said as I put her on the ground and walked into the bathroom choking on sobs.
I had to have a plan. I had to get my emotions under control and call and ask Zach to tell me the truth. I got a paper towel and was about to savage the rest of mascara when Macey came in, she immediately embraced me, "Whats wrong?" She asked.
"I and Zach and he didn't mean to and ... so I think he might be ...ing on me.
"Okay, I don't know what to do. Zach didn't mean to call me and he sounded like he was kissing someone, so I think he might be cheating on me."
I nodded, she had got every word right, "What do I do?"
"You figure it out. How long is he supposed to be gone?" She asked getting down to business.
"Two days."
"Okay, number one you have to get your feelings or hormones or whatever this is under lock and key. You are sad and mad, but now it is time to be that Gallagher Girl you think you aren't. Okay? Two you call Zach and if he doesn't call you back you leave a message tell him to call you. If he doesn't come home at the exact time we is supposed to when he comes home tell him you know and start interrogating him," Macey said and pulled me into another hug, "Now you think we stop this crying before you loose all of this make-up.'
I nodded and let her fix my mascara, and lightly powdered cheeks before we came out. I looked at myself in the mirror, I had bloodshot eyes it was totally obvious I had been crying.
"Hey Mommy," Lee smiled.
"Hey," my voice cracked so I cleared my throat, "Whatcha up too."
After a few more minutes of everybody else talking Lee said something that made all eyes turn to us, "What did Daddy say that made you cry."
I was aware people were staring at me, even as slightly out of shape spy I was still the Chameleon, "Oh sweetie," I said while trying to find a way to arrange the words, "He didn't really say anything to me. Its okay all you have to know is that he didn't mean to make me cry."
"What kind of answer is that?" She asked.
"What your the genius, what was that am I too smart for you?"
"Of course not," She crossed her arms over her chest as she, everyone else, and I laughed.
