A Different Way To Finding Each Other

His First Sick Kid

Robert Quinn was told by Lena that Caleb and Callum were going up North for an event with Dana and Stuart, their grams and gramps. Dana was taking Caleb to see the Thomas And Friends convention, as well as the Jay-Jay The Jet Plane and Friends and Stuart was taking Callum to see the Disney Cars and Disney Planes convention.

So Robert was only going to have Callie and he nodded, but deep down he was going to miss seeing his boys. But he was going to plan a special weekend for him and his baby buggy since she was the only one going to be with him from Friday after school and till Sunday morning.

The week later, on Wednesday Lena called Robert. "Hi Lena," Robert said into the phone as he had a coffee and breakfast sandwich. "What's going on?"

"You need to pick up Callie at my office on Friday after school, the Daycare will be closed for staff evaluations and meetings."

"Understood," he said. "Does she know it will just be me and her?"

"She does and is a super excited," Lena told him. "Have something planned?"

"Yup," Robert said. "Are you and Stef worried?"

"A tad bit," Lena replied. "But we trust you."

"Good and I will see you and Callie on Friday," Robert stated. "And my mansion is ready for their 5th birthday party and I got all the activities,  and food ordered."

"Good and Stef and I are grateful that you opened up your home for their 5th birthday party."

"Don't mention it and I'm excited," Robert said. "It will be huge."

"Can't wait," Lena said as she ended the call and smiled. Robert was a good father and very responsible and she still loves him and it is hard to forget a man like Robert Leonard Quinn since she has three beautiful kids who they both created out of love.

The night before, Callie wasn't feeling well as her eyes pinched, her nose hurt a tad bit and she had a mild sore throat and she groaned and sighed as she woke up in bed and got a sip of water and knew she was probably going to be sick.  She knew she needed to keep it a secret and not her mama or mommy at all. 

"What's wrong Callie?" Lexi asked since she spent the night.

"Um just needed a sip of water," she sort of lied. Lexi mumbled something and went back to bed next to her best friend and even though Callie has bunk beds, they always shared the bottom bunk together and the top part was used for Callie's many plush characters. 

Callie knew if she told her mama and mommy of being sick, she would not be allowed to go with her daddy on his weekend and knew she might get in trouble for lying and lying wasn't okay at all according to her mama and mommy and regardless of the reason.

She knew she could get in serious trouble, but her reasoning was that she hardly sees her daddy and he did plan a special weekend as she went back to bed and hoped for a good rest of the night and possibly not being sick.

The next morning her symptoms were gone as she grinned and Lena didn't have time to make breakfast and they all went to Anchor Beach early to eat the free breakfast provided. The kids went to the cafeteria, while their mama went to her classroom and later her office.

"Are you okay?" Lexi asked Callie as she bit into her breakfast sandwich, while Callie opted for the cereal and banana and side of OJ as she poured her milk in her Life cereal.

"Yeah, why?" Callie asked.

"You tossed and turned all night," Lexi said.

"I could not sleep well last night, but I'm better," Callie said as her siblings came over as Jack glared at Callie. "You took the last of the Life cereal," Jack accused.
