Chapter 2
Scarlet walk swiftly from work eager to pick up Katie from day care. She was worried about her. She had heard of some killings around the neighborhood and Scarlet Didn't want to be out late with Katie more than she already was. Pushing herself forward Scarlet speed walked the last few blocks as fast as she could in heels. Stopping in front of the day cares gate Scarlet cot her breath before she unhinged the gate claps and walk the five steps to the front door. Brushing her bangs out of her face, Scarlet knocked lightly on the door. She didn't have to wait long before Mrs. Bennett's big white hair showed itself through the doors windows.
"Hello Mrs. Bennett, how are you?" Scarlet asked as soon as Mrs. Bennett's wrinkly face came out from behind the door. Mrs. Bennett blinked her wispy eyes before she pick up the glasses hanging from her neck. "Is that you, Ms. Potter?" Mrs. Bennett asked while she was situating her glass. "OH! It is you Dearie, come in, come in out of this heat." Mrs. Bennett said ushering Scarlet through the door. Fidgeting her necklace Scarlet softly walked into Mrs. Bennett's foyer.
As soon as Mrs. Bennett closed the door Scarlet could feel the cold air from the AC seeping into her gray linen suit. Wrapping her arms around herself Scarlet turned to Mrs. Bennett to ask were Katie was. "She's right in the living room Dearie." Mrs. Bennett said reading Scarlet's mind.
"Thanks." Scarlet replied with a smile.
Mrs. Bennett went ahead and headed towards the living room as Scarlet followed silently behind her. As they reeled into the living room Scarlet saw her. Putting her finger in a be quiet gesture Scarlet pointed it to Mrs. Bennett. Understanding Mrs. Bennett nodded her head silently when Scarlet started to tiptoe into the living room. In front of Scarlet was her baby. Katie.
She had her chestnut curls in a little red bow and she was trying to shove another little plastic block into a tiny little ball with a hole in it the shape of the block. Katie was sitting in the middle of the living room rug in front of the window. The last remembrance of the sun was shining on Katie making her little three year old body in a yellow like glow.
Crowching down quietly behind Katie, Scarlet tapped her daughter on the shoulder. Scarlet's smile widened when her daughter fixed her matching bright green eyes on Scarlets own.
"MOMMY!" Katie cried throwing herself at her mother. "Katie-Bug!" Scarlet said hugging her daughter for all she was worth. Picking up her daughter Scarlet stood up. "Are you ready to go home my Katie-Bug?" Scarlet asked her daughter. "Mmmm-Hmmm!" Katie replied to her mother shaking her head up and down.
Scarlet and Katie grinned back a each other as Scarlet turned to Mrs. Bennett. "Mrs. Bennett I can't thank you enough for watching Katie when I'm at work." Scarlet directed towards Mrs. Bennett.
"Your welcome Dearie, Katie's no problem at all and with all that's on your plate you deserve to be able to go to work with out having to bring Katie, Dearie." Mrs. Bennett replied handing Scarlet Katie's baby bag. Strapping Katie's bag on her shoulder next to her purse Scarlet walked out of the living room with Mrs. Bennett. "DON'T FORGET TEDDY!" Cried Katie trying to squirm out of her mothers arms. "Alright, we won't forget Teddy." Scarlet reassured her daughter going back to pick up the stuffed bear she'd given to Katie on the day she was born.
Scarlet handed the bear back to Katie, which she started to hug the light out of it, then continued to the front door with Mrs. Bennett. Hitching Katie higher on her hip Scarlet stepped out on Mrs. Bennett's porch as Mrs. Bennett held the door for her.
Turning back to Mrs. Bennett, Scarlet said,"Mrs. Bennett, thank you again for taking care of Katie, how much do I owe you?" Mrs. Bennett smiled at Scarlet and Katie. Waving her hand Mrs. Bennett replied," No Charge Dearie, your little Katie is an angel, I wouldn't charge you a dime for such a well behaved child. Now don't look at me like that Ms. Potter I mean every word I say and anyway I'm already old and rich I don't need any more money, Now shoo you and Katie must be getting home its not real safe after dark, especially will all those new crimes the Bill are having."
Sighing in defeat Scarlet said goodbye to Mrs. Bennett telling her she'd see her on Monday, and headed towards home holding Katie. Katie babbled on about her day while Scarlet listened intently to her daughter for the entire thirty blocks to their apartment. Katie was still going on about how she and Teddy had a tea party with all of Mrs. Bennett's little dolls when Scarlet finally hiked up the twelve flight of stairs at their apartment building.
Once they stepped through her front door Scarlet locked it and set Katie down on the floor to remove their shoes. Picking Katie back up, Scarlet walked them to the bedroom they'd shared. After Changing into more comfortable close for both of them Scarlet and Katie ate a small dinner before she and Katie brushed there teeth for bed.
"Mommy?" Katie yawned sleepily while Scarlet was tucking her in. "Yes, Katie-Bug." She replied. "Can you sing the song?" Katie had asked. Smiling at her daughter Scarlet sung her daughters favorite song, Scarlet's song, till little Katie was fast asleep.
Moving to her own bed Scarlet remembered she had the day off tomorrow to play with Katie. Happy at the thought of spending a full day with her bubbling daughter Scarlet fell into a peaceful sleep.
