I am giving Lively Summer up to adoption, if you would like to adopt it, please PM me, this is going to be a first come first serve basis, also, if you want to adopt this story, you would have to tell me some of your ideas for it. Thanks (:
I am making some changes to this story now that I read it back over, and the only one I came up with right now is that let's pretend that Yumi's job was never a veterinarian, and that it is a nurse, this is going to be her permanent job. I thought it over and was like she has a better job being a nurse than a vet, also I just wanted it to be so cliché to have Ulrich be a lawyer and Yumi a nurse (:
I ALSO DECIDED TO MAKE A MAJOR CHANGE FOR THIS STORY, THEY ARE GOING TO LIVE IN AMERICA, BECAUSE THIS STORY HAS MANY OF THE AMERICAN THINGS AND HOLIDAYS AND STUFF LIKE THAT, THEY ARE GOING TO LIVE IN AMERICA. EVERYTHING IS STILL GOING TO REMAIN THE SAME. SAME JOBS, HOUSES, COMMUNITIES, NOTHING IN CHANGING AT ALL, IT'S JUST THAT THEY IN THE USA NOW. THANKS, AND THIS WON'T CHANGE NOTHING IN THE CHARACTERS!

One Year Later
|Monday,*August 11th 2018*|
|5:00 AM|
[Normal POV]
"Wake up sleepy heads! It's Monday, August 11th, at 5:00 in the morning. Wake up to the bright morning sun, the singing birds, and the car horns honking. It's going to be a beautiful Monday morning here at Wes…" The alarm clock was snoozed by a slightly tanned hand that fell to the side of the bed.
"Ugh, I really don't feel like getting up." A masculine voice groaned in tiredness.
The person next to the voice picked up their head, and rubbed the cold out of their eyes. "You're the one who went to bed late last night Tristan." A feminine voice responded.
Tristan looked over at his wife, Selena. "You went to bed late last night too angel."
"But, I don't have to go to work until eleven o'clock." Selena acknowledged.
"Touché." Tristan claimed, and rolled up out of the bed.
Selena slightly smiled, and got up out of the bed as well. "I'm going to go check on Valarie."
"Okay, I'm just going to get dressed for work." Tristan said, as he went into the bathroom before their two dogs jumped up on Tristan. "Hey pups." Tristan petted both Jasper and Shadow, and then headed toward the master bathroom to take a shower.
Selena then walked out of the master bedroom and across the hall to her daughter's room. When she walked into the purple colored room, she went to the white crib and picked up Valarie. Her daughter looked more like Selena, than Tristan. Valarie had auburn hair that came to her shoulders, light green iris with ocean blue eye color.
Valarie, being very tired, didn't open her eyes. Once lifted in her mom's arms, she placed one hand on Selena's shoulder, while she sucked her thumb on the other hand. Selena's then went downstairs.
"Wake up Val." Selena said soothingly.
Valarie slowly opened her eyes and looked around, as she was placed in her in the miniature purple high chair.
"Are you hungry?" Selena asked her daughter who looked up at her while still sucking her thumb. She took her thumb out her mouth.
"No." She smiled.
"No?" Selena repeated with a smile.
"No." Valarie said again.
"Are you sure?" Selena asked once more.
"Yes."
"Yes hungry, or no hungry?" Selena smiled at her daughter, for some reason had a big grin on her face.
"Foo!" Valarie pointed to the baby food on the counter.
Selena chuckled and went to the counter, and opened the yogurt for babies. After getting the baby spoon, she went back to Valarie and put down the opened plastic cup of yogurt; and handed her daughter the tiny light green baby spoon.
"Don't rush eating okay?" Selena told her daughter.
The one year old dipped the spoon in the yogurt, and put the yogurt in her mouth, slowly letting it slide down her throat.
Selena smiled, and went over to the pantry to fix her breakfast. She pulled out a box of Apple Jacks cereal, and placed it on the counter. After getting the milk and bowl, and putting it the cereal and milk into the bowl, she began to be munching on it.
A few seconds passed as before Tristan came down in his Army uniform, with our dogs following closely behind him
"Doggies!" Valarie exclaimed as she saw the dogs, and dropped her spoon. "Uh oh."
"Uh oh." Tristan smiled and picked up the spoon. Selena went into the drawer and got another spoon and handed to Tristan, who handed it to Valarie. Tristan took the spoon that fell onto the floor into the sink.
"Tank qa." Valarie tried to pronounce, and continued on her yogurt.
"What time you get off work, cause you know your shifts change up quite a bit." Selena asked, and put another mouthful of cereal in her mouth.
Tristan sat down at the table, and fixed his cereal. "I should be off around eight or so, I call you if it's later."
"I was thinking, maybe we should start putting Val in a daycare, I don't want to be a burden on my real parents, and foster parents. They have to work too, yah know?"
"Why a daycare, my parents are in town, they could watch her?" Tristan spoke, after he chewed the cereal in his mouth.
"But they're on a business trip right now." Selena reminded her husband.
Tristan sighed. "Do you know how much a daycare costs?"
"There are many different types of daycares Tristan."
"Such as?" Tristan asked.
"You have the normal daycare centers, home daycares, or a nanny."
"Let's think of the pros and cons to those Lena, a daycare center costs at least three hundred to a thousand dollars a month, and the caregivers care for more than one child, they are hard to find because of the capacity, Val can get sick easily, they are closed during holidays and bad weather, and the stupid times to pick-up and drop-off." Tristan explained. "We just don't have all the money to do such a thing."
"But the pros to a daycare center are that it can be more affordable than the others, good supervision, she can socialize with other kids, the staff members are trained, and they are licensed." Selena also explained.
"Why can't she just stay with a relative Selena?"
"Because I told you why Tristan, there is nothing wrong with a daycare, she was going to have to go to one eventually. What about Carol, she lives near us, and one of my good friends. She doesn't charge much, only two dollars an hour, she was recommended in the newspaper for best in-home day care. Carol is fully licensed, and she's good at what she does, and she's fifty-six, older people have more experience too. She knows CPR, and has all the things necessary just in case a child gets sick or hurt. She also said she would love to take care of Valarie."
"I don't know Lena." Tristan sighed, as Valarie knocked over the empty plastic cup.
"Uh oh." Valarie said innocently.
Tristan got up and took her out of the high chair, and let her walk slowly over to the play area.
"What is there to not know, it's not like I can stay here for twelve hours a day. She's only there for eight hours, that's it!" Selena rolled her eyes, as Tristan picked up the empty cup and put it in the trash.
"Okay, she can go to the daycare, I was just worried okay?" Tristan said, as he picked up the spoon and put it in the sink.
"I know, I understand, but you know where I am coming from right?" Selena spoke, and put her and Tristan's bowl in the sink. She then looked up at her husband, who was watching their daughter play with a teddy bear. He then looked over at Selena.
"Yeah, I understand." Tristan nodded his head. "Well, I have to go to work, I'll see you tonight, I love you." Tristan kissed Selena's cheek, and then walked over to his daughter. "Bye Valarie."
"Ba ba." Valarie struggled to say bye bye.
Tristan kissed Valarie's forehead, then placed her down back on the floor so she could continue playing.
"Bye Lena." Tristan waved, and then headed toward the front door.
"Bye." Selena sighed.
(A/N So I know one year olds don't talk that much, but hey, it's very cute to see them talk)
[Meanwhile]
[6:15 AM]
[Jeremy and Aelita]
In the Belpois household not much has been going on except the normal everyday plans; which were taking care of CJ, household work, and just plain going to work every day. As of now Aelita and Jeremy were just waking up from their slumber to get ready for soon to be long day.
Also, Aelita has even started to write her own book, but the title was yet to be named. She has also taken up knitting in her spare time. She loves to make scarves, which she had made some for Yumi, Selena, Trinity, as well as herself for when the winter season arrives. Aelita also makes gloves, purses, and belts.
For babies she created bibs, booties, blankets, and mitts. Jeremy, as well as she didn't know whether to start selling the knits she made, or just keep them while she continues to constantly make things.
As for Jeremy, he has also taken up some new hobbies when is not working. Darts was one of them. Jeremy had placed a dart board in the garage, due to Aelita said she did not want anything to be broken at the end of his dart game. Even though he was fairly new at the game, he was still better than he thought he would. Of course, as told by his friends that he would eventually choose a boring that would make them go to sleep, Chess.
Jeremy sighed as he got up, and out of the bed. "Come on Aelita, we have to get ready for work and take CJ to daycare." He looked beside him and saw that Aelita wasn't lying next to him. Seconds later a familiar smell wafted upon his nose. Jeremy removed himself from the bed and headed downstairs.
"Morning." Jeremy spoke as he saw Aelita fixing breakfast, and CJ eating oatmeal.
"Good morning." Aelita smiled over at her husband.
"Dada." CJ spoke in his high voice.
"Hey bud." Jeremy softly rubbed CJ's head, and then looked over at Aelita. "You sleep well."
"Not really, CJ wanted to play all night." Aelita answered. "You hungry"
Jeremy nodded his and looked over Aelita's shoulder to see what she was fixing. Aelita was fixing bacon and scrambled eggs.
"Hey, I have to go to work at little bit early." Aelita mentioned. "We have meeting at seven."
"Alright, I'll take to my parents place before I leave." Jeremy spoke, as he went over and turned the television on to Good Morning America.
"This is absolutely incredible how Kobayashi ate thirteen grilled cheeses in one minute!" The news lady spoke.
"Either that or he was selfishly hungry."
"Let's get back to some more news that is happening around the California, Irvine region. Last night there were shooting outside of a convenient store, for what did he rob the store for. Four packs of chip, and one pack of gum."
"Please, what is this world coming to, robbing store for chips and gum, that total just comes out to five dollars and come change, maybe less than that! But in other news, there has been a prisoner that escaped from prison and is now on the run. This man, Frank Howard has escaped, and the police is now trying to locate him, if you see this man please do not hesitate to call the emergency line, many have claimed that Howard may be armed, and is very dangerous."
"We are just switching from good news to bad new today huh? In other words, it has been rumored that the PearPhone8 should be coming out by mid-September, this phone should have a 20 megapixel camera, many apps to download for an unlimited about of space. As well as the texting keyboard could be slid down to seem as if you're are typing on the table on your phone."
"Wow, this technology is something else now a days…"
"Sure is, but we have to commercial, stay with us…"
"PearPhone8?" Jeremy looked over at Aelita.
"Pretty cool huh, I came up with it." Aelita smiled. "But, I'm going upstairs to get dressed."
"Okay."
Jeremy went over to CJ who smiled up at him. "You done eating?"
CJ just nodded his head and lifted his arms for Jeremy to lift him. Jeremy returned the smile and picked up his son, and took him towards his toys and played along with him. A few minutes passed when Aelita came down in her professional clothes.
"I'll take CJ to your parents' house instead; I already bathed him and everything. And as you can see he's dressed." Aelita went over towards Jeremy and CJ, and picked her son up.
"Okay I'll see you later." Jeremy got of off the floor.
"Bye." Aelita said as she walked out the door with CJ in her arms, and her bags.
(A/N Hmm, what's going on with Aelita and Jeremy, they seem…out of it.)

[With Trinity and Odd]
[6:25 AM]
"Tonniiiiight we areeeeee yoooooung, so let's set the world on fireeeeeee, we can burn brighterrrr, than the sunnnnnnnnnnnn." Odd sang with radio to We Are Young, by FUN
"Odd shut up okay. It's way too early in the morning for you to be singing!" Trinity spoke to Odd as he came downstairs.
"Oh come on, it's going to be a great day, and this is how the day is going to begin!" Odd grinned, as he swooped Logan up from floor and started dancing with him. "Sing with me Log. Tonniiiiight we areeeeee yoooooung, so let's set the world on fireeeeeee, we can burn brighterrrr, than the sunnnnnnnnnnnn."
Logan had a smile on his faced and he and Odd spun around the house, dancing.
"Don't make him spit up his food, he just finished eating!" Trinity indicated.
"Okay." Odd stopped spinning happy Logan around and just danced with him.
"Why are you such in a great mood?" Trinity smiled at her husband.
"I don't know, I just woke up feeling good, I think I'm not going have a big breakfast, I'll just have an apple or something." Odd responded, as he put Logan back down on the floor, and looked at Trinity. She was already dressed and was getting ready to leave for work.
"Alright if you say so, there's a fresh apple in the fridge." Trinity pointed, and walked into the foyer to check herself in the mirror. "Hey, do you think I need to lose weight?"
Odd walked into the foyer with the apple in his hand. "What makes you say that?"
"I haven't lost any weight since Logan was born, I have stretch marks, and I have excess fat now almost everywhere now." Trinity looked back at her husband, who was munching on his apple.
"I think you look fine tootsie." Odd smiled, and placed his lips on Trinity's forehead. "I love you."
Trinity returned the smiled. "I love you too, see you later. Bye Logan!"
"Ba Ba." Logan waved at Trinity. Trinity blew him a kiss, and then waved to Odd before walking out of the door to go to work.
Odd waved to Trinity as she pulled out of the driveway. He then went back into the house, shutting the door behind him. As he walked into the family room area he saw that Logan was still playing with his toys, he smiled and threw the core of the apple into the trash can. As he did so, he went over to socialize with him some more before he heads off to work.
After a few minutes of playing with his son, he quickly got himself dressed, as well as Logan. When he went downstairs with Logan in his arms, he noticed the core of his back on the counter.
"What the…." Odd made sure not to let a curse word not to slip his mouth while his son was around; due to the fact Logan repeat everything he hears. Odd put the apple core back in the trash can. He then turned around and picked up his bags, when he lifted himself back up he saw that the apple core was yet again back on the counter.
"What the hell!" Odd shouted without thinking, he looked over at his son who looked wide-eyed at him. "Do not say that, okay. That's a very bad word."
"Kay." Logan slightly nodded his head, and put his thumb in his mouth. Odd rolled his eyes and slammed the apple core in the trash.
"Come on Log, time to drop you off at daycare while daddy receives the money." Odd spoke before anything else weird could happen. As soon as Odd was about to walk out of the door, he heard something fall from upstairs.
He looked at the top of the stairs, confused. "This is weird."
"Uh oh." Logan put his hand over his mouth.
Odd slightly smiled, he turned around toward the door again to leave and head to work. "Tonniiiiight we areeeeee yoooooung, so let's set the world on fireeeeeee, we can burn brighterrrr, than the sunnnnnnnnnnnn." Odd sang. "Tonniiiiight we areeeeee yoooooung, so let's set the world on fireeeeeee, we can burn brighterrrr, than the sunnnnnnnnnnnn."

[6:45 AM]
"Wake up again sleepy heads it is six forty five in the morning here in Irvine, California. The sun is shining, the birds are chirping, and the car horns are honk…" Ulrich slammed his hand on the alarm twice that morning. He then rolled over and placed his head in the crock of his wife's neck, like he does every morning.
"What time is it?" Yumi moaned in tiredness.
"Six forty-five." Ulrich answered.
Yumi sighed and wrapped her arms around Ulrich's back. "I'm too tired to get up." Yumi didn't get a response, figuring her husband must have went back to sleep again. "Ulrich babe, get up. We have to take Kammi to daycare, and we have to work."
Ulrich mumbled something before his voice became quiet again. "What?" Yumi asked, starting to lift herself from underneath her husband.
"I don't feel like it, I'm sick." Ulrich rubbed his eyes after he felt cold when Yumi moved away from him.
"Well, get well soon." Yumi said as she pulled the covers off of Ulrich. He then got out of the bed, and sighed. "Can you feed Kammi for me?"
Ulrich nodded his head, and walked out of his and Yumi's bedroom. Seconds soon, he walked into his daughter's room. He smiled as he saw Kammi standing up in her crib smiling up at Ulrich. He smiled in return. Over the year, Kammi was beginning to look more and more like her mother, with the exception of her eyes being dark green, like her father's. Ulrich went over to Kammi, and lifted her up out of the crib.
"Morning Kam." Ulrich kissed his daughter cheek.
"Mo na da." Kammi ran her pointer finger down Ulrich's nose. Ulrich smiled as she tried to say morning dad, but she was progressing. Ulrich walked out of Kammi's room to go downstairs to try to find something to eat. He placed Kammi in the high chair, and went into the fridge find something for breakfast. Nothing.
"Hey Yumi!" Ulrich called for his wife. He heard footsteps come downstairs, and into the kitchen. Ulrich closed the door, and looked at Yumi who was dressed in her scrubs for work.
"I know, I know. I'm going to the store after work." Yumi spoke. "We don't have any breakfast foods though, not even for Kammi?"
"I mean, we have some of those oranges my mom recommended. Those um…Mandarin Oranges." Ulrich looked back inside of the fridge and pulled out the oranges he just talked about.
Yumi nodded her head. "That's fine, she really loves those too." Yumi walked over to Kammi and pulled her out of the high chair to hug her.
"Mo na mama." Kammi poked Yumi's cheek, and then put her finger in her mouth.
"You are just teething on everything don't you?" Yumi smiled, and then looked over at her husband who was cutting the oranges. "Babe can you drop her off at daycare, I have to be at work at 7:30."
"Yeah sure, I don't have to be at work until 8:00, but can you watch her until I get dressed and back down here?" Ulrich asked, and handed her the plate of sliced oranges.
"Sure." Yumi smiled.
"Thank you beautiful." Ulrich kissed Yumi's lips, and then went upstairs to get ready for work, while Yumi feed her daughter.
Several minutes passed when Ulrich came back down dressed to go to work.
"I have to go get going." Yumi told Ulrich, she then looked at Kammi who just finished eating. "You're done eating?" Yumi said in her baby voice, and then went to get a napkin to wipe Kammi's face.
Yumi lifted Kammi out of her high chair and let her walked to Ulrich who picked her up. "I'm gone."
She went over to Ulrich and kissed his lips, and then playfully kissed Kammi's cheek; which made her smile.
"Bye have a good day." Yumi waved to the two.
"You too." Ulrich called after her.
"Ba mama." Kammi spoke.
[Meanwhile with Selena]
Selena walked out of her house with Valarie in her hands to check out the daycare the rest of her friends children go to. Once she walked up to her 2018 SL RED NISSIAN JUKE. She strapped Valarie in her car seat.
"Are you ready to leave, Val?" Selena asked, as she ran her fingers though her daughter's hair.
"Yes." Valarie smiled up at her mother.
Selena returned the smile. "Okay, let's go." Selena closed the back passenger door, then to the driver seat. Once the car was started up, she was on her way to Carol's home, the babysitter. After a less than three minute drive, she was in front of a beautiful, very modern town home. After Selena got out of the car, and got her daughter, she went up to the home, and rang the doorbell.
Selena heard footsteps come toward the door, the door was then unlocked and then opened. "Hey Selena, how are you?"
"I'm just peachy, and yourself?" Selena responded, and examined her. She changed over the few years. Honestly, it's been at least five years since she last saw Carol. She had raven colored hair, sort of like Yumi's hair, but much darker. Her hair length was just touching her shoulders. She had hazel eyes, and she was wearing a light blue shirt that said 'The Babysitter', and black shorts that stopped just above her knee cap, along with white sneakers.
"I'm good, and this your daughter?" Carol asked, knowing the answer.
"Yes, this is Valarie. Say hello Val."
Valarie looked up at Carol, before she turned her head and laid it upon her mother's shoulder. "She's shy." Selena smiled.
"It's fine, all babies are like that when they first meet me." Carol smiled, and opened the door wider to allow Selena and Valarie in. As they walked in they noticed that the townhome looked small on the outside, but it was really big and spacious on the inside. As you walk in to your left, there were two stairs cases; one that connects to the basement, and the other to upstairs. Both were blocked off by gates though.
When you walk in further to the home, there was a decent sized kitchen, which all stove knobs, and door knobs were covered. In fact, the whole kitchen was blocked by a gate. On the right side across the kitchen, laid the family room, or in a lot of people's eyes. The playroom. There were toys everywhere.
"So I need you just to fill out some papers for Valarie, just tell me here medical records, what she is allergic too, etcetera. (A/S: I never knew how to spell "etc." like that, we spell things really weird, like aisle…. Lol)
Selena nodded her and placed down Valarie on the floor, but her daughter didn't go anywhere, just held on to her leg. "Go play, mommy has to fill out papers about you."
"No." Valarie looked up at her mom, and denied her.
"Yes, go." Selena pointed to the toys. Valarie sat down on the ground started crying, begging to stay with her mother. But Selena paid her no mind, even though she wanted to, this was the only way to not have her daughter grow up and be in control of everything, or just plain baby her for the rest of her life. Yes, she was one years old, but the discipline had to start sooner or later.
Carol placed the papers on the table for Selena to fill out. "Aren't you going to get your daughter?"
Selena nodded her head. "No, if she has temper tantrums like that, just don't let her know she's in control of you."
Carol nodded her head. "Okay."
Selena took a pen out of the cup holder on the table, and then looked at the table.

"Okay, mommy loves you." She kissed Valarie on her nose before facing Carol again. "Here bag is in my car, I'll go get it, if you follow me."
"Oh, yeah sure." Carol said, as she followed Selena outside to the humid weather. Selena opened the trunk to her car, then handed her the purple bag.
"Here it is, I get off work before dark appears." Selena said and walked over to the driver side of the car. "You have my number just in case of emergency?"
"mama, mama, mama." Valarie half-way ran, hopped over to Selena. Selena scooped her off of the ground.
"Val, mommy has to go work, if you behave we will get some ice-cream on the way home, deal?"
"Yes." Valarie smiled, as wrapped her arms around Selena's neck, hugging her. The mother smiled as hugged her daughter back.
"I love you Val."
"I la yo mama."
Selena smiled, kissed her once more before handing her to Carol. "So, I'll see you later? And thanks again for this Carol."
"No problem, see you later Selena!" Carol waved. Selena smiled before getting into her car, and starting her day.
[Meanwhile]
[With Aelita]
Aelita had just arrived at her job after dropping CJ, her son, off at Jeremy's house. She sat in the car for a minute, just replaying recent events that have been going lately. Jeremy has been acting completely distant from her, it was weird; but this has been happening for a couple of days. She sighed and got out of the car.
"Maybe it's nothing, probably work." Aelita thought to herself. She picked up her suitcase from the back of the car, and then walked into her office building. When she walked in, she saw Sasha walking towards her, well skipping joyfully in her high heels.
"Aelita there you are!" Sasha exclaimed.
"Um, what did I miss?" She looked at her boss confused.
"Oh just a great deal, we just took note that the pear phone is going to attract millions of people across the country, and maybe even the world. We are going to have an emergency meeting about shipping our products world-wide." Sasha grinned.
"That's great." Aelita said in a downcast.
"What made your electric spark, huh?" Sasha placed her hands on her hips.
Aelita nodded her head. "It's nothing, we should get back to work."
"Oh no you don't, we are going to your sparks to stop flying and fix your cords…"
"What on earth are you talking about Sasha, have you been around technology too much now?" Aelita said, and sat down on the modern couch in the lobby, knowing she isn't going to get anywhere without explaining herself to her boss.
Sasha sat next Aelita. "So, what's up?"
Aelita sighed, and glanced over to Sasha. It dawned on Aelita what her boss was wearing; which consisted of: a light yellow tank top, a blue mini-skirt, and black high heels. "What are you wearing?"
"Hey, don't ask a question with a question, answer mine." Sasha said, popping gum in her mouth.
"I'd rather not talk about it, okay. In fact, I don't even know what's going on, so if you don't mind Sasha, I'm going to go ready for this meeting, if you don't mind." Aelita got up from the couch, and went to the elevator; going to her office.
Once Aelita was in her office, she slammed the door shut, and put her face in her hands. She sighed. Aelita looked slightly over to her left and noticed the phone, debating whether to call Jeremy, or just stop overthinking it. Over the past few days, things were awkward, weird, and silent. Whenever Jeremy came home, he would watch television, go to sleep, eat, or play with CJ. There were a few words spoken between her and Jeremy like: How was your day, their son, plans for the weekend; but that was really it. The couple, without being negative, only had sex once when CJ was born.
Aelita tried, but Jeremy was just too tired, or not in the mood. Aelita decided to call him; hopefully he would be too busy.
No answer.
She slammed the phone down, and sighed heavily. Soon then there was a knock on the door. "What?"
"The meeting is about to start." Sasha said from outside of her door.
Aelita stared at the wall for a second before turning her head toward the door. "Okay." Aelita got up from her chair and opened the door revealing Sasha, she waved at Aelita.
She put on a fake smile, and walked toward the meeting room. She saw that some of her co-workers already were ready for the meeting. Five minutes passed with Sasha walked up to the white board in front of the room.
"So, now we all know what we are here for, and that is to make our products go worldwide." Sasha pointed to the white board that now had an image of her computer on the whiteboard. "We will go to France, Spain, England, Germany, Japan, China, Australia, Poland, Canada, Mexico, and many plus more. We will create the world's best technologic products. We will be better than the rest of the other technologic companies! We will go above and beyond than what is expected from us. Now, we all know the PearPhone8 is being released next month, and many people are already talking about camping out the stores…" Sasha was interrupted by Aelita's phone ringing, which caused her to her to gain attention from her co-workers.
"Mrs. Belpois, you know cell phones aren't allowed during meetings." Sasha scolded.
Aelita looked at her caller I.D and saw that Jeremy was calling, she looked up at Sasha. "I'm sorry, I really have to take this." Aelita walked out of the meeting room, then outside to her car.
"Jeremy we need to talk seriously…"
"Okay, what about, and make it quick I have to go back to work."
Aelita rolled her eyes, annoyed of the fact she was being rushed to what she had to say. "Never mind, we'll talk later."
"No let's talk now, you already called? So, what's going on?" Jeremy said, with slight annoyance.
"Is something wrong with you, you aren't acting like yourself at all." Aelita asked, quite concerned.
"You don't need to worry about me, okay? I'm fine, I'm at work taking care of kids."
"I know that; don't tell me what you're doing like I don't know what job you have. Now will you let me explain what I have to say first?" Aelita snapped. "What I wanted to say was that, you've been distant…"
"Not this again Aelita, just lie off and stop telling me that I'm being distant. I'm fine, I come home every night, and we talk, what else to do you want from me, huh?" Jeremy responded rather loudly.
Aelita's eyes widen in shock. "Whoa, wait a minute, who do you think you are talking to like that, I'm trying to fix things between us…."
"There is nothing going on between us, we are fine…"
"Will you stop cut…."
"Like I said I see you every night, I come home and hug you, we have Carter to take care of so we can't really do much Aelita. Figure it out, we can't do the things we did when we were teens."
"Will you shut the hell up and let me talk for once. You always listen to the sound of your own damn voice Jeremy. Ever since Kadic, you just wouldn't hear anybody out. So do me a favor, don't talk to me until you get you anger straight. You freakin called me in the middle of my meeting, so I could be in be trouble because of you. So goodbye!
"Because of me?"
Aelita pressed the end button on her phone, and placed it in the cup holder. She placed her head on the steering wheel for a moment, until she heard a knock on her car window. It was Sasha, yet again. Aelita rolled her eyes, and got out of the car.
"Hey, what the hell was that all about? How could you just walk out on a meeting like you did? My supervisor was there, I hope you know that." Sasha argued.
"Sorry, I'm just finished up an argument with my husband, that's what's been going on with me. Okay?" A tear then slid down Aelita's cheek.
"What was the fight about?"
"He's just being distant from me, and I asked him what was his problem, and he just got very defensive." Aelita shrugged, and more tears ran down her cheeks.
"Can I make you a deal?" Sasha looked into Aelita's eyes, seriously.
"What?" Aelita questioned.
"If you allow me to talk to your husband, and set things straight between you; I would you for you to give me Odd's number, or let him hang out with me." Sasha explained.
"What are you talking about, I can't do that to Odd; he's my best friend. His wife is my best friend as well. And she would kill when if she found out. Not to mention they have a son too!"
Sasha rolled her eyes. "Do you think that bothers me a bit? I don't care that he's married, nor has a son. I grew up with him, and kids who grew up together belong with each other. Oh, and if you don't do this for me, not only will I not help you and your husband out, but you will be fired for walking out on a meeting like that. Your choice."
Aelita looked at her boss in shock. Not only was this a horrible choice, but it was one of the other, she knew if she had gotten fired, Jeremy would be extremely more pissed off than he is. But if she chose to make up with him through Sasha, Aelita would have to hook her and Odd up. Trinity would kill her if she did so.
"Oh, and don't tell his wifey about this either, and you can kiss you job goodbye." Sasha added.
Aelita nodded her head after thinking for a while. "Okay. I'll…I'll help you…ho…hook up with Odd."
[Meanwhile]
[With Yumi]
Yumi had just pulled at the hospital she works at, one of the best hospitals in all of America. Here she works as a nurse. As she turned off the car and walked in the hospital she swiped her card, signing her in for work. Yumi went up to the floor she works on and went to the locker room, locking up her bags, except for her cell phone, and money.
After she came out of the locker room, she sat at the desk and turned on her computer.
"Hey Yumi." A person said between behind her. Yumi looked behind her and saw that it was Avery, her co-worker. Avery was Yumi's height, and the same age. She was Asian, she had dark black hair that stopped a few inches below her shoulders, but it was up in a messy bun right now. She has dark brown eyes, small nose, and thin lips.
"Hello." Yumi responded, as she turned on her computer she checked to see her patients for the day.
"Did you hear about the hot new doctor?" Avery sat down on her side of the desk, and turned her chair facing Yumi; as while as eating her orange.
Yumi chuckled a little bit. "Well no, but I really don't care if he's hot."
"Oh that's right, you still have that hot's for your hubby." Avery smiled.
"And what is exactly is that supposed to mean?" Yumi asked.
"No need to get defensive." Avery laughed. "That's actually a very good thing."
Yumi smiled, and looked at the picture of Ulrich, Kammi, and her taped on the edge of her computer. "Not to mention you have a very beautiful one year old too."
"Yeah, I love both of them with all my heart too." Yumi looked over at Avery. "What about your boyfriend, huh?" Yumi pointed to the picture on her desk of a handsome African American man, about the same age as Avery.
"Oh Trey, we are still together, coming on a year in a few days." Avery smiled.
Yumi smiled in returned. "Do you see yourself marrying him?"
"Uh yeah of course, like my parents are begging him to propose to me already." She laughed. Yumi looked over at her computer; it said that she has a new patient.
Name: Daisy Graham
Age: 54
Sex: Female
In Hospital For: Fainting/dizziness, when standing up she feels lightheaded, hard to breath when standing.
Room: 3102
"I'll be back; I have to go check up on my patient." Yumi looked over at Avery who was admiring her boyfriend's picture.
"Huh, what?" Avery snapped out of her trance, and then looked at Yumi.
Yumi playfully rolled her eyes. "I'll be right back." With that Yumi went to her patient room. She wrote her name on the board and introduced herself. "Hello, I'm Yumi, and I'll be your nurse for the day."
"Hello young lady." Daisy, the patient said.
"So, you want to tell me what's going on with you." Yumi asked, while setting up the machines, to hook up to the patient.
"Yes. It seems when I stand on my feet for a period of time. I start to become light headed, and feel like I am about to pass out." Daisy explained.
"And how long as this been happening?" Yumi asked.
"About a month." She answered.
"Alright, so what I'm going to do is take your temperature, and then your blood pressure. Is that okay?"
After Yumi did the procedures, a doctor soon came in the room to check up on Yumi's patient, while Yumi's back was to the doctor. She didn't know who this new doctor was.
"So Daisy, how are you doing so far." The doctor spoke. Yumi looked up from her clipboard she was writing on, but still kept her back away from the doctor; but she recognized that voice, but it couldn't be the person she think it is. "Nurse, you have everything straight?"
Yumi turned around, and the doctor was exactly who she thought it wouldn't be. Yumi looked at the doctor in shock. "What are you doing here?"
"Doing my job, ."
"For your information, Mr. Dunbar, it's Mrs. Stern now; okay?" Yumi scolded.
William took his attention away from Yumi for a moment, and then looked at the patient who looked confused at the two. "As you know now my name is William Dunbar, a new doctor here."
"Anyway, Daisy, if you need anything just press this button." Yumi showed her the red button on the remote. She nodded her head and turned her attention back to William who continued to speak with her. Yumi walked out of her patients room, when leaned her back and head on the wall. She sighed.
"Of all places to work at, he has to work here? I never wanted to his face again, and this is what I get. Just screw my life right now, my day started out great, until I saw his ugly face." Yumi sighed and went back to her desk and violently typed the patients file on her computer.
"What happened?" Avery looked at Yumi.
"That doctor that you said was hot, I knew that jerk since high school. He's the one who my life a living hell." Yumi rolled her eyes.
"Well that's a way to treat someone you haven't since in a long time." William walked up to the desk and looked down at Yumi.
"What do you want, huh? Yumi responded.
"I just want to say hello." He smiled.
"Hi, now leave." Yumi turned her back to William, and faced Avery who looked confused. William came around the desk and stood in front of Yumi, he then saw the family picture tapped on her desk. His face started to turn red.
"How old is your daughter?" He asked.
"None of your damn business, how about that?" Yumi rolled her eyes, and turned her chair to turn her back to William again. William pulled her chair back, for what seemed to be playful.
"Can you not do that?" Yumi stood up from her chair, and walked away from William. She went into the ladies restroom. She sighed as she placed her hands on the counter, looking herself in the mirror. She saw that her face was red with anger, she wanted badly to tell William to get lost, but she could get fired in a heartbeat. Yumi then grabbed a paper towel, wet it, and wiped her face. After throwing the paper towel away, she opened the restroom door, and saw William standing in front of the door.
Yumi jumped being slightly scared. But she then rolled her eyes, not paying William any mind, and walked past him. He grabbed her wrist. She jerked her wrist away from him. "Don't touch me, ever again!"
Yumi turned her back to him once more before walking back to her desk. "Has Ulrich told you about his new secretary?" William called after her. She stopped in her tracks. "Well, she's not really new, the girl has been working with him over a year now."
"You're just making that up. Ulrich would never keep something from me. We tell each other everything, good or bad."
"If you say so Yumi, when you find out, don't saw I told you so." William smiled.
"Whatever, I'm not going to listen to you anymore; you already made my life hell in high school. So why don't you grow up and move on."
William didn't respond because Yumi walked away too fast for him too. Yumi sat down at her desk and noticed that Avery was not there. Yumi sighed and thought about what William said about Ulrich having a secretary. Yumi laughed about it and shook it off.
Hours Later…
[8:00 PM]
The day seemed to go be quickly, the start of the day wasn't one of the best days ever. For Jeremy and Aelita, they had a very off day because of the huge fight between the two. Jeremy called Aelita back again and told her that he would be staying at a friend's house until both of the get their acts together. Aelita wasn't too proud of Jeremy decision, but she could control him. She would hang out with CJ for the rest of the night.
For Selena, she was happy to see her daughter again after a very long day or working. For Tristan, he didn't receive happy news from his general. In a few minutes, he would be home to his wife and daughter to tell Selena, the sad, horrible news.
Tristan opened up the door, he saw Valarie walking towards him. "Dada."
Tristan slightly smiled. "Hey Valarie." He scooped his daughter up from the floor and kissed her cheek. He continued to hold her while he walked into the kitchen where he saw Selena fixing dinner. She smiled over at him. "Hey."
"Hey." Tristan returned the smile, but still had a hint of sadness in his eyes. This went unnoticed by her. "How was your day?"
"It was good actually. Val had a great time at the babysitters, Kammi, Logan, and some other tots been there." Selena told Tristan, who simply smiled.
"I'm going to go change, okay." Tristan went upstairs slowly after he placed his daughter down. Selena took notice of her husband's mood, she decided to talk to him about it during dinner. Selena put attention back on the enchilada she was fixing. Once dinner was fixed, she put Valarie in the high-chair, and fed her the food her parents were going to fix. The dinner was soft enough for her six teeth too chew.
"Eat carefully okay?" She commanded her daughter.
"Yes." Valarie nodded her head and dug her spoon in the food.
"And blow on it, I don't want you to burn your mouth." Selena said, as she fixed plates for her and Tristan. Tristan came down in more comfortable clothes which was a: black wife-beater, and dark blue basketball shorts.
Tristan sat down at the table. "Thanks for fixing my plate."
Selena smiled, at sat across from him. "You're welcome, so how was your day?"
Tristan looked up from his plate at Selena, he then placed his fork down on the plate. He sat his back on the back of the chair. "Selena, I uh…I have to be deported again."
Selena dropped her fork on the plate and stared at Tristan as if he's lying. "You're joking right?"
Tristan sadly nodded his head. "No."
"They said that you were staying here." Selena felt a tear slide down her cheeks, she wiped it away. "Where do you have to go this time?"
"Afghanistan." Tristan answered, as he put some more food in his mouth.
"Afghanistan, really? Why can't you go somewhere peaceful, with everything that has happed so far, they are going to send you there?" Selena pushed her food away, as tears were now streaming down her face. Tristan went over to Selena, he put both of his knees on the floor and looked up at her.
"I'm not going to get hurt Lena. I promise you." He intertwined both his fingers with hers.
"How can you promise me that?"
"Because I will always be thinking about the two most important girls of my life: you and Val."
Selena slightly smiled. "When do you have to leave?"
Tristan sighed. "Tomorrow."
Selena's eyes went wide. "Tomorrow?"
He sadly nodded his head. "I'm going to go upstairs, I lost my appetite."
Tristan watched Selena run up the stairs, wiping her face as she went. He then looked over at Valarie who was starting to fall asleep in her high-chair. She was done eating.
Tristan went over to Valarie, he picked her up out of her high chair, and carried her up to her room. He then tucked her in her crib, before he did he kissed her cheek. "I love you Valarie." With that, he left the room, looking back once more, before shutting his daughter's door.
Tristan went across the room, to his and Selena's room. He opened the closed door, and saw that Selena was crying on the bed.
"I don't want you to go." Selena said, sensing he was in the room. Tristan lied on the bed and pulled Selena into his arms.
"I have no choice baby." He kissed her forehead.
"How long will you be there?" She looked up at him.
"A year."
Selena shot her head up, she was about to get up and go somewhere else, but Tristan caught her arm, he gently pulled her back down, no matter how much she was resisting. He stroked her hair, she cried against his chest.
"I'm so sorry Lena, I don't want to leave, but it does either don't go or get fired." Tristan looked down at Selena, who looked up at him with sad eyes. "I love you so much, and that will never change."
"I love you too Tristan, so much." Selena pushed herself up to his face, and placed his lips on his, he put his hand behind her head; kissing her back.
[Meanwhile]
[With Odd, Trinity, and Logan]
Trinity had just arrived at the house, when she did she smelled a great smell come upon her nose. "Smells good in here."
"Yeah, you would never guess what I'm fixing." Odd grinned, as he saw his wife walk in the kitchen.
"What, pizza, like last night." Trinity placed her bags in the family room.
"Nope, stroganoff."
Trinity's eyes went wide. "Seriously."
"Yup, and it's about to be ready now. Can you wake up Logan, he's on the couch." Odd asked, and prepared all of their plates, and placed Logan's plate on his high chair.
"Wake up boo boo." Trinity rapidly kissed Logan's cheek. He laughed once he was fully awake. Trinity giggled and picked up her son, she placed him in the high chair, and he stuck his hand in the food, and put it in his mouth.
Once the husband and wife sat down in front of their plates, they began eating.
"So, some weird things were happening this morning." Odd mentioned, remembering this morning's events.
"Oh yeah, make me weird out then."
"You know that apple core I was eating?" Odd asked.
"Mhm."
"I placed it in the trash, right, then when I turn around for a second, it's back on the counter, I repeated this again, and it was on the trash again.
Trinity looked at Odd. "That is weird, you think we live in a haunted house?" Trinity laughed.
"I'm not joking Trin, this really happened, and when I was about to leave I heard something fall upstairs. When I came back home, the lamb had fell in our room."
"The lamp?"
"Yeah, the bulb is every broken, it's in the trash right now though." Odd pointed to the trash.
"Whatever you say babe." Trinity smiled.
"You will believe me eventually." Odd pointed to his wife. Seconds later the T.V soon changed to another channel. The two looked over in the family room strangely. Trinity looked at Odd, who had a I told you so face.
"Don't give me that face, you know how technology acts sometimes." Trinity shrugged. The T.V to the family room then turned off, then back on, then off again. "Okay, stop playing with me Odd."
Odd glared at her. "The remotes over there, smarty."
Trinity rolled her eyes. "Maybe something weird is going on around here."
[Meanwhile]
[With Yumi]
Yumi was finally got off work after a long day. When she found out the William had to work alongside her now, the day did nothing but be a terrible drag. Yumi laid her head back on the seat. She sighed. Before Yumi had left, Ulrich called and told her that he had to work late. Being bored, and wanted to see Ulrich so she could tell him about William, she went to go to his job.
As she arrived at Ulrich office building, she went up to Ulrich's office level, once in the full office, she saw that desks were sitting outside of the individual lawyer's offices. Yumi looked for Ulrich's office, she smiled she found it. But, before she entered the office, she found a desk sitting outside of Ulrich's office as well. The desk didn't have a name plate on it, skimming over the desk, she couldn't find the owner who sits behind it.
"Stop being paranoid Yumi! Ulrich would never lie to you!" Yumi then tore herself away from snooping around. She then touched the cold metal door handle, she slightly pushed it down slowly, carefully not to make any noise. When she did, she saw Ulrich typing away on his computer, with his back to her. She smiled, when she entered the door, she quietly closed it, and locking it afterwards.
Tip toeing over toward a busy Ulrich, she gently placed her small, gentle hands upon Ulrich's shoulders, and massaged them. Ulrich smiled, recognizing who it was. "I thought I told you I had to work late."
Yumi also smiled. "Maybe I wanted to come see you, unless you don't want to see me, I could just leave right now."
Ulrich turned around in his chair, and faced Yumi. "Where's Kammi."
Yumi sat down on Ulrich's lap, facing him. "My mom said she wanted to pick her up and let her have dinner there with Aiden. How was your day?"
"Long, tiring, I just tired of handling all the bad things that happens to people, I just want to hear something good for once all day."
Yumi looked away from Ulrich, with an 'uh oh' expression. "What?"
"That just sucks you know." Yumi spoke, wanting desperately to tell Ulrich about William, but he looked annoyed, and he didn't want to hear anything that would make him upset, and stress him out.
"How was your day?" Ulrich asked.
Yumi waved him off. "Same, things never change. But something's do surprise you."
"I know the feeling." Ulrich kept his eyes on his wife, he then leaned up and connected his lips with hers. She smiled, and wrapped her arms around his neck, kissing him back. Ulrich ran his hands up and down Yumi's back. The kiss then became more intimate, and passionate. The couple's hands ran all over each other. Ulrich lifted Yumi up and laid her down on the desk, moving things away. Their lips never parted. Ulrich merely disconnected their lips, and put a trail of kisses down her neck, then connected their lips again.
Shirts were then taken off or unbuttoned. "You sure you want to do this here?" Yumi looked at Ulrich, he smiled.
"Sure, I mean, the walls are soundproof." Ulrich placed his lips on Yumi's again, she smiled.
One Hour Later…
The couple was soon putting their clothes back on, both were tired. "Well, that was interesting." Ulrich chuckled.
Yumi smiled. "It was, maybe we should do it again sometime."
"Yeah, like you said we were going to bathe together, but that was forever ago. Remember when you told me in the apartment." Ulrich buttoned his shirt back up.
Yumi laughed. "I'm not telling you when that's going to happen again. What time are you going to be home?"
"I'm going to wrap it up in a little bit." Ulrich said, as he went over to Yumi. He wrapped his arms around her waist, leaned down and kissed her. Yumi wrapped her arms around his neck, kissing him back.
"I'll see you at home." Yumi kissed Ulrich one last time.
"I will see you there. I love you." Ulrich moved the hair that stuck to Yumi's face.
"I love you too." Yumi then walked out of Ulrich's office, she smiled to herself, as she waved to Ulrich, and closed the door behind her. Once Yumi was out of the building, she saw Beth towards the office building.
"Beth?" Yumi stopped in her tracks, so did Beth." What are you doing here." Beth started to feel her face rage seeing Yumi.
"I work here, didn't Ulrich tell you I was his secretary?" Beth spoke. "Oh, and by the way, it's Sissi."
Yumi rolled her eyes. "Do you think I'm stupid I knew that, and I knew you were up to something."
"Well, duh, I had to get closer to Ulrich somehow. And dating your bother was the only way. Besides you haven't spoken to your brother in a whole year, so there's no way he would believe you, he's way too in love with me. And I'm in love with Ulrich."
"That's great for you, but I love him more than he loves you. You know why because we just finished making love, and how does he treat you? Like shit, so bye bye. And BTW, you couldn't work for him, because he would have told me."
"Really, because I've been working for him before your daughter was born. If you don't believe me, follow me up to his office." Sissi smirked.
Yumi rolled her eyes and walked past Sissi back to the office building. Once the two were up at the office again, Sissi walked into Ulrich's office, leaving a crack in the door for Yumi to hear.
"Ew, it smells like a wet gym in here. But anyway, do you need anything for your secretary to do?" Sissi spoke.
"Um, no. I'm about to leave in a few minutes." Ulrich responded.
"What?" Yumi said loudly in her mind. She then opened the door to the office with her arms folded against her chest.
"Uh oh, well I better leave." Sissi smirked.
Ulrich's eyes widened, knowing this was all a set-up and Sissi was back. He looked over a Yumi who was burning with fury.
"Yumi, let me explain." Ulrich walked over to her.
Yumi backed away, but she still looked up at him, extremely pissed off. "Don't bother too." Yumi walked away from Ulrich, she went to the elevator and pressed the button to go to the ground floor.
"Yumi wait!" Ulrich ran to the elevator, but it shut in his face before he could stop the doors from closing.
Yumi kicked the elevator wall in frustration. "How could he do this to me, this is so cliché, having a fight right after sex…"
Yumi slammed her car door shut, she quickly started up the car, before pulling off into the streets, going home. It's going to be a long night.
Twenty minutes passed when Ulrich walked into the front door. He immediately placed his bags down and walked into the family room. He saw Yumi sitting on the couch.
(A/N Oh NO, they are going to have a major argument! And they aren't going to be on speaking terms for a while! It breaks my heart seeing Ulrich and Yumi fight. I'm sad!)
"So, has Sissi been working with you before Kammi was born? That day you had to go to your job because of your promotion, that's when you found out she works for you."
Ulrich looked down. "Yes."
"Why couldn't you tell me?" Yumi looked at him.
"Because you wouldn't allow me to Yumi, you said if I had bad news to tell you then hold it off. Remember?" Ulrich reminded her.
"Okay, but you still should have come out and admitted it; we wouldn't be in this situation we are in now!" Yumi said. "I thought we were going to tell each other everything, but you didn't, you lied ever since before Kammi was born, why couldn't you tell me?" Yumi shouted at Ulrich.
"Because you this is how you would have reacted Yumi, you always tend to jump to conclusions that I always did the wrong thing." Ulrich shouted just as loudly.
Yumi rolled her eyes. "And you always tend to be so shy about everything; I thought you grew out of that! We used to tell each other everything, what changed, huh?"
"Nothing changed."
"I really can't believe that, because of how long you kept this from me, what you are like falling for Sissi or something now."
"Really Yumi, you want to go back to this now. How could I like someone like Sissi…"
"Why was she in your office right after I left?" Yumi calmed her voice down slightly.
"Maybe because she is the secretary! It's not like I wanted her to work for me, my boss said I have no choice."
"Maybe you should have told him about your history with her, maybe that would have changed things a little bit! But like I said, you are now back to your old ways, never telling anybody anything."
"Whatever, I always been like this Yumi, I just don't show it as much, because you always get pissed off when I really don't want to tell you something, or something you don't need to know. Just because we are married, it doesn't mean we have to tell each other every single thing that goes on in our life! Who the hell does that? For example, like this isn't ever going to happen but what if I told you that I just got done watching porn, or drinking a soda. Why the hell would you want to know that, huh?"
"I'm not talking about that Ulrich, I'm talking about the big stuff, like this!"
"Ha, yeah right, you get pissed the hell off when I'm talking to a waitress sometimes, don't act like I don't see the jealously on your face."
Yumi rolled her eyes, and crossed her arms once more.
"Exactly, you aren't denying it because you know it's true."
"Wow, well since we are coming clean about everything and how we feel about each other, let me come clean first before I talk shit about you to your face. William is a doctor at the hospital I work at, I found out today."
"When were you going to tell me that William was working alongside you now?" Ulrich spoke loudly.
"I was going to tell you when I saw you."
"But you didn't obviously."
"Okay but at least I told you when I found out on the same day! I didn't keep it a secret for a year and some change."
"But why couldn't you tell me at the office, huh?"
"Because you said you didn't want to hear anything bad."
"That's exactly why I didn't tell you!" Ulrich slightly shouted.
"But I wouldn't have held on to this little secret for a year! You are so annoying sometimes, I hope you know that. It's going to be hard to trust you sometimes."
"You're really going to not trust me after this petty little thing. We shouldn't be fighting right now."
Yumi rolled her eyes. "That's exactly what I said Ulrich."
"Fine, you do that if you want to, it's really going to be hard listening to what you have to say if all you are going to do is break my heart."
Yumi eyes widened. "You really think every word that comes out my mouth, I'm going to break your heart! How do you think I feel after you broke mine when you didn't tell me that Sissi was working for you?"
"How do you think I feel about William working with you?"
Yumi sighed. "I don't think we can do this right now."
"Do what, huh?"
"Us, I think we should just take a break from each other." A slow tear rolled down Yumi's face.
"You want to do that, really?" Ulrich looked down at a sad Yumi.
"I don't know…" Yumi looked up at Ulrich, then back down at the floor.
"You don't know?" Ulrich paused. "Well, let me make it easier for you." With that Ulrich walked out of the door.
Yumi ran out the door behind Ulrich. Ulrich had just gotten in the car. Yumi slammed her hands on driver seat window. "You're really going to leave, just like that."
"Yeah, it's clear you don't want me here!" Ulrich looked at Yumi.
"Whatever." Yumi rolled her eyes. "Since your leaving, I have the perfect place for you to go, you can go to hell."
Anger filled Ulrich's body from Yumi's words. "Too bad you are already there."
Yumi's eyes widened and her mouth dropped. "You are such an asshole, you are."
"And you're a bitch." With that Ulrich sped off. Yumi's hands were forced off from the car window. She sighed heavily, before she dropped to her knees, soaking in everything that happened. He's gone. Ulrich's gone. Tears flooded down Yumi's cheeks. Thunder was heard from above her, as rain began to fall heavily.
"What did I just do?" Yumi screamed up at the sky. She buried her head in her hands, not caring that she was getting soaking wet.
Ulrich had his left hand hold his head up as his right hand hung on to the steering wheel. His face was red, and his face might as well have been a river due to all the tears streaming down his face. He banged his hand on the steering wheel in frustration, which caused the windshield wipers to come on. He turned them off, he nodded his head, and he did not believe what had just happened. But, he knew he would have to see Yumi again, because if would have to see Kammi.
Yumi still had her head buried when she heard a car pull up the driveway. Thinking it was Ulrich she lifted her head back up, but it wasn't, it was her mother with her daughter. Smiling slightly, she went over to her mother and Kammi.
"Yumi, what happened?" Her mother asked. Yumi picked her daughter up. "I wish not to talk about it right now mom."
"Would you like for me to stay?" Her mother asked.
Yumi started to break down again, but she nodded her head.
"Okay." Yumi's mother looked at her daughter, who looked very sad and depressed. When the two were in the house, her mother took Kammi, and told Yumi to get into some dry clothes. Once she changed into her night clothes, she took Kammi's from her mother's arms, and cuddled up with her.
"Okay explained to me what happened."
Yumi looked up from Kammi, and sighed.
So, this took me forever to finish this chapter. But it was so worth it. It broke my heart writing the fights between Ulrich and Yumi, the fight between Aelita and Jeremy, and Tristan being deployed, and Odd has something strange going on in his house. Things are going to get interesting
