A/N: none so far.
Most people don't remember their childhood much less at the age of ten months. But I do. And I guess at this age everything was has it should have been. Mommy and Daddy were together; therefore all was OK in the world. The big bad monsters under my bed and in my closet could never get me because mommy and daddy were there to keep them away.
It's kind of weird, you teach your kids how to count from 1 to 10, or the ABC's before they are one. But I never knew any of that: what I knew was that mommy was called Mrs. Elena Kast, and she sure was beautiful with her blond, shoulder length hair. Her brown eyes often captivated my father always: Billy Kast just your regular average Joe, and he wondered how he caught my mother so to say. My father had shaggy brown hair, and clear blue eyes. These two were inseparable and I thought this would last forever: Daddy, Mommy and me.

At Home
Nine month old Elsa Kast lays in her crib staring up at her parents in glee. She does not much but drools as her father tickles her feet for the umpteenth time. But when her mother joins in on the action, she can't seem to contain the joy so she laughs.
"She looks so beautiful Billy; I have always wondered how you and I created something like that." Elena ponders on this.
"She's not as beautiful as you, Elena. And she will never be." At this Billy gently strokes his wife's cheek, kisses her goodbye and heads towards their bedroom to catch on some sleep before work tomorrow.
"Goodnight Elsa, don't let the bed bugs bite." Elena leaves the Elsa's door wide open in case anything happens, and off to bed she goes where her husband waits.
At Work
"SHIT!" Billy yells as coffee spills on his favorite white shirt, he glares at the culprit only to be stunned into silence.
A petite young burnette of 27 appears, "I'm sorry… I… I didn't mean for that to happen." She tries her best to wipe the coffee stain with napkins, only to make it worse. "Um… if you want I can pay to get you a new shirt?"
"How about you buy me lunch, instead?" When Billy utters this ridiculous offer, he knew this was the end of something but he knew not what.

In the House
"Where are you off to today, Billy?" Elena questions as she works on her latest brownie recipe in the kitchen.
"Oh..." What do I say? "I'm to work." Wow? That's a wonderful excuse, especially since I don't usually work on Sundays.
Elena can't shake off the feeling that something is going on, but she doesn't know what. Therefore she shrugs it off by asking a question, "But… honey it's a Sunday?"
"I know… that's what I said. But you know the boss. I'm working for a big law firm, so you would think they would be concerned about my feelings too. You know, help the client out."
I'm probably just tired from breastfeeding Elsa.Yep, I bet I just worrying about nothing."Ahh… don't worry honey, I didn't mean to stress you out. I was just wondering."
Mission accomplished…
At the Law Firm
The brunette asks, "So, how did you get away from that nagging wife of yours?"
Billy responds with a chuckle, "She's not that old Allison, she's only 34. Besides I just told her I'm going to work."
Allison sits across his desk in the office surprised at his revelation. "I didn't call her old Billy, you did. Which means you might not love her like you say you do."
Billy doesn't know what to say, he just realized that maybe his pretty brunette is right. Maybe Elena isn't right for me anymore. And at the same time, maybe I don't want to be a father anymore much less a husband.
"Do you want some coffee?" Allison offers.
"Sure… Allison I will love to. Just lead the way and I will follow."

At home
AHHHHH! Elsa yells at the top of lungs, but her noise is not heard since her two worlds are erupting. Hoping, praying that the screaming from mommy and daddy can just stop. Tears now stream down her red, hot, chubby face and she sucks in air only to yell so more.
"Why, now Billy? Why? What have I ever done to you? What about Elsa? How can you do this… to us, your family?" Elena screams at the top of lungs.
"Elena, PLEASE?" Billy pleads with her trying to make Elsa calm down, but to no avail.
"Please, what? You go around buying women coffee, and you pretend as if you are working on a big case, when you are not!"
"Actually… its only one woman not women and her name is Allison" I don't understand why she is so mad.
"I don't care what her name is; she shouldn't be touching, looking or even thinking about you." Elena grabs her head and she feels a killer migraine coming.
"Look, Elena its only coffee. I am not doing anything else with her." Not like I am having sex with her, we are just drinking some harmless coffee.
"Billy, you say that now but sooner or later it might be more than coffee. I want you to end it with her."
"Really… Elena? You are that paranoid?" Billy scoffs.
"I'm not paranoid; I'm just scared that I might lose you to someone not even worth your time or effort. We have been together for five years now, please Billie… we can work this out."
"Of course… Elena. I will do anything you want."
"Thank you…" Why do I feel like this Allison person has just wont he war?
At the Coffee Shop
Allison questions, "You told her that we are over? But you aren't breaking up with me?"
"Yes… I love you Allison, will you marry me?"
At this, Allison gasps in glee, "Of course I will, Billy."
Flashback (12 months= one year old)
At Home
Elena stares in disbelief at the now empty house. Everything that was Billie's is now gone. Allison that stupid brunette took from me what she shouldn't have. "Promise me, Elsa you will never fall in love." Elena whispers to her one year old baby. "Because all you will find is heartache." Tears fall from her eyes, and she gasps for needed air and watches her Billy leave her for a flight attendant. 5yearsdownthedrain… 5years,but at least I still have you… Elsa to help keep me sane.
