Even though Sara, our babysitter, usually put Daisy to bed most nights, I still wanted to do bath time with her. The reality was I got to spend very little time with my daughter because I had jobs to hold down. However, I wanted to make the most of the time we did spend together.
“You can pick the vegetables to add to our pasta tonight,” I said.
Daisy smiled, almost like she tried to pretend to be excited about it.
“Onions, tomatoes and string beans.”
I laughed at that and together we arranged the kitchen tops to prepare dinner.
The pasta boiled and she told me all about her day. I was relieved she wasn’t asking about her father anymore. I still needed some time to recover from the shock of that.
I hadn’t allowed myself to think about him in a long time. I didn’t let my mind go there. He was in my past. I left Nashville because I wanted to get away from him. And even though Franklin wasn’t ideal, and it’d actually feel like home, at least I didn’t have to see his smug face everywhere I went.
My phone rang in the middle of one of Daisy’s stories. I rushed to answer it and saw it was my mom calling.
“Hi, Mom,” I said with a smile. She visited us every few months and I couldn’t wait to see her again.
“Amanda!” she screamed into the phone.
“Mom?” I panicked because I heard the pain in her voice. Something had happened. Something was wrong.
“Amanda. I fell down the stairs. Oh my God. Everything hurts. I think I’ve broken…”
“Mom! Did you call nine-one-one? You need an ambulance.”
“Oh God!” She screamed in pain. I wanted to scream too. Why wasn’t I there to help her? She needed me and I was miles away.
“Mom, please. Just hold on, okay? I’m going to call nine-one-one. I’ll get someone over to you.”
“Amanda, please, honey, I need you,” she cried just before I hung up.
