"Good morning" I smile walking through the betting shop
"Mornin' YN" Arthur grunts
"Tommy in his office?" I ask walking over towards it
"Yeah said he's busy though" John states, tooth pick in his mouth
"He's always free for me" I walk into Tommy's office and close the door behind me
"What do you want?" Tommy says not looking up at me. I giggle at his rudeness
"Now is that any way to speak to your wife?" finally Tommy looks up to me
"Sorry, I have so much paperwork and people keep distracting me. Are you ok?" not many people hear the word sorry from Tommy, not many people see the soft side of him, but I do
"I wanted to talk to you about something" I sigh sitting down on the chair opposite. Tommy puts down his pen with a worried look on his face "it's about Charlie"
"Is he ok?" Tommy nervously says standing up "where is he? who is with him?"
"Tommy calm down. He's fine, I didn't mean to worry you. He's with Polly and Johns kids, which maybe is a concern for worry he'll be swearing like a sailer when he gets home"
"YN focus. What's going on?" Tommy frowns now leaning against his desk
"Oh yeah errr ok so. What do you want Charlie to call me?"
"Huh?" Tommy is very confused with my question
"This morning..." I take a deep breath "this morning while I was making his breakfast he called me mummy"
"Oh" Tommy crosses his arms "and you don't want him to call you that?"
"That's just it, I was so happy that he called me that, but... Grace is his real mum and I'm just..."
"His mum" I frown at Tommy now being the one confused "yeah Grace was the one who brought him in this world and I'm not gonna not tell him where she is when he gets older. Hell we probably should have this chat with him now, but your bringin' him up. He can have 2 mums eh? were you worried what I would say?"
"Yeah a little. We all know Grace was the love of your life, and if she wasn't... then I wouldn't..." I look down at my hands ashamed
"Hey look at me" Tommy lifts my chin up gently using it his fingers "I know you worry about if Grace was still alive if I would be with you, I can't lie to you and say no I would have left her because I don't know. But what I do know is that I love you just as much as I did Grace and if Charlie wants to call you mum then that's ok"
"I'm sorry, I know how hard it was losing grace and now here I am being jealous of her"
"It's ok. I don't know what this is like for you. That's why I want you to talk to me about this. Don't be scared if it'll upset me I can handle it. Why don't I finish up here and we'll go take Charlie to the park eh?"
"I'd like that" I smile at my husband before leaving his office
"That was a quick fuck" John calls out laughing
"Why does everything have be about sex with you?" I laugh with him
"John get back to work" Tommy walks out with his coat in hand
"I thought you had paperwork left?"
"Fuck the paper work. I want to spend my afternoon with my beautiful wife and very handsome son"
"Thank goodness Grace's genes came through" Arthur shouts. Tommy rolls his eyes taking my hand in his
"Work. The lot of ya"

Tommy and I walk down to the park holding Charlie's little hands. When we arrive at the park Charlie pulls Tommy and I to the swings
"Mummy can you push me?" I smile at Charlie
"Of course I can" Charlie sits on the swing and I go behind him and begin pushing him, the sounds of his giggles and laughter have me smiling as wide as I have ever before. I do love this child like he was my own
"I love you YN" I feel arms wrap around my waist
"I love you too Tommy"
