Cole's House...
Cole sighed in exasperation when Kimmy started crying again. "Lindsay! Get her for me!" he yelled as he struggled to control the dinner and the tea. Rebecca was at work until midnight most nights trying to support five kids, so he pretty much took care of the kids except when he was at school when Kimmy was at day care. So he had to go straight from school on his dirtbike to the day care and make sure Lindsay and the twins were home okay.
"I'm doing my homework!" she yelled from the den. "Lindsay, I'm cooking! I can't leave; please get Kimmy!" he yelled back. "Argh!" she screamed, frusterated and threw down her math book. "I hate dad! I hate him!" he could hear her yelling as she kicked the walls. Cole sighed and turned off the stove to the tea. This had become a daily routine; he cook dinner, Kimmy cry, Lindsay scream about how much she hated their father.
About five minutes later, when Cole had Kimmy in his arms, the door opened and Rebecca walked in looking dead tired. She saw Cole looking frusterated as he struggled to hold Kimmy, make the tea, and fix everyone's plates. "Oh, Cole," she cried and rushed to him. She grabbed Kimmy and looked into Cole's tired eyes. "Cole..I'm so sorry.." she said, wiping a tear. "It's okay, Becky really. At least dad's not here anymore."
"But that's whats so wrong! I can't support five kids and you can't take care of three kids and a baby, not at your age. You shouldn't have to." "I don't mind, really, Becky!" Cole exclaimed, finishing up the kids' plates. "No, Cole. I talked to Peter...I want you back at Horizon." she said finally. Lindsay was behind her. "No!" she yelled and ran to her room. "But I need to help out around here, Becky. You can't take care of all of them."
That was when she started to talk and someone knocked on hte door. "I'll get it!" Trev yelled. He swung the door open just as Becky was about to scold him about not asking who it was.
"YOu?" She yelled in disgust. On the doormat stood their father, holding some flowers. "Becky-I just needed a break. I realized how much I missed you guys..." he said, walking in. Lindsay ran in and just stared at him. "You can't let him back here, Becky," Lindsay and Cole said at the same time.
Instead of answering them she walked to him, setting Kimmy on the floor and wrapped her arms around him. Cole stared at her, dumb founded. The twins just moved closer to him. Cole knew it wasn't their fault-they were to young to know everything. "I'm going to pack!" he yelled and ran to his room and slammed the door.
