To Love Again
Chapter 5
When the alarm went off that morning, Elena switched it off and got out of her bed. Today was the day she was going to get a new job. One that allowed her to get more time taking care of her children while supporting them. It was going to be diffucult, but she had no other choice in the matter. Not if she wanted a roof over her and her children's heads.
She tossed her hair up into a messy bun and went online to fill out different job applications and posting. Hopefully she would score at least one interview. She had to.
"Hey mommy." her daughter said coming into her room.
Elena turned around and smiled picking her daughter up. She was getting so big.
"Hey sweetie."
"What are you doing mommy?"
"Just looking for a new job."
"I thought you liked your job."
"I do I just need a new job. Sometimes adults have to do that."
Her daughter shrugged as she snuggled her closer. She always loved mother daughter moments like this.
"Mommy?"
"Yes sweetie?"
"Will we be okay?"
Elena sighed and hugged her daughter."
"Yea. I think We'll be."
"I miss daddy."
"Oh baby I miss him too."
she sighed and just sat there holding onto her daughter for as long as she could.
