Jimmy sat on the couch waiting for Kim too come over. She was supposed to be here to pick up Joey and drop off Ellie. Jimmy heard the doorbell and got up to answer. "Kimmy, you're late," Jimmy said in an impatient tone.
"I'm sorry. It took for ever to get Ellie over here. She said that she was too scared," Kim replied. A part of Kim wanted to take Ellie back with her and protect her from whatever was hurting her.
Jimmy saw the scared look in Ellie's eyes. He just wished that Ellie would tell him what was really going on. "Well I come get Joey next Saturday," Jimmy said. He saw Joey go out the door and Kim turn around to leave. "Kim wait," Jimmy said.
"What do you want?" Kim asked.
Jimmy grabbed Kim by the arm and kissed her softly on the lips. Kim moaned softly. She missed this so much. Kim slowly pulled away from the kiss. "You're married. Remember?" Kim said and left.
Jimmy knew he shouldn't of kissed Kim. But he couldn't help himself. He still loved her. "Daddy, are you and mommy going to get back together?" Ellie asked hopefully. She missed them all being a family. And she hated living with Connie.
"I'm sorry sweetie, but mommy and I aren't getting back together," Jimmy said softly. He saw the disappointed look in Ellie's eyes. "Get ready for bed," Jimmy said.
Ellie walked into her bedroom and went to bed.
Jimmy sat down on the couch waiting for Connie too come home. He needed to talk to her about Ellie.
Kim sat down on the couch next to Joey. "Joey did you notice anything weird about the way Connie acted?" Kim asked. She didn't know what Joey would've noticed, but it was worth a try.
"No. But she told me that you wouldn't be around daddy anymore, and that Ellie would be going away to school," Joey said. He didn't know why his mom was asking questions about Connie. She never wanted to hear about the stuff Connie did or said.
"Does your dad know about all this stuff?" Kim asked. She hoped that she couold get too the bottom of this whole mess that had Ellie upset.
"No. She was going to talk to him about it tonight," Joey said. "Can I go to bed now?" Joey asked.
"Sure sweetie," Kim said.
After Joey was asleep Kim went too bed. She would talk to Jimmy tomorrow.
