"Ash please I'm begging you I need to know how to get Faith to sleep because she is one pissed off infant and I need my sleep" Randy pathetically begged his best friend over the phone.
"She's not sleeping?" Ashley asked concerned.
"Well do you blame her first her mother disappears then she's dragged away from everything she knows to travel around with her grouch of a father and equally miserable toddler brother"
"How's my little man?" she asked.
"He's been throwing fits like crazy, he wants you to come home"
"What have you guys been telling him" she tried to hide the pain in her voice.
Randy noticed it right away "We keep telling him that mommy needed to help grandpa with something and that you'll be home soon"
"Randy you shouldn't lie to him" she sighed twirling the phone cord around her fingers.
"It's not a lie if I have to add on to this house just so you and John don't have to see each other but are still living in the same house so I don't have to listen to all these whiny kids I'll do it"
"I miss my babies like crazy but tell them that I'll be at Raw next Monday and I can't wait to see them oh and Randy please give them a million kisses for me and tell them that I'm thinking about them and that I love them"
"I will I promise"
"Also tell Dommy I miss her too and I'll call her soon "
"Yep"
"Oh and tell Dean I love him too and that I miss him and give him just as many kisses as you are giving my kids cause I don't want him to feel left out"
"Anything else?" he asked.
"No that's it and just know that I'm safe and taking the time to do some soul searching"
"Ok … is there anything you want me to tell John?"
"No"
"Hey Randy I gotta go but remember what I asked you to do and that I love you"
"I love you too but seriously before you go please tell me how to get Faith to sleep"
"It's actually really simple just sing her a Keith Urban song" she replied.
"Huh??"
"I'm not sure but I think Alex might have listened to Keith Urban a lot while she was pregnant with Faith because I remember one time Faith was fussing like crazy and my cell phone rang my ringtone of course at that time was I Told You So by Keith Urban and let me tell you she stopped crying immediately"
"Really? Good to know but why do I have to sing it to her why not just play a song on the radio"
"Because she likes when the people she loves take the time to rock her and sing to her. It makes her feel safe and secure"
"And that is why I will never be any good at raising daughters they are just too much work"
"You say that now but the moment that little girl is placed in your arms everything else just melts away believe me ask John he'll tell you all about it"
"Well we'll see"
"I really do have to go now"
"Ok so I guess I'll see you on Monday"
"It's a date"
"Take care of yourself"
"I always do"
"Bye Ash"
"Bye Rans"
