Dedicated to Jehnyfa for being the first voter

On Sunday I woke up exhausted, I had stayed late with the girls. Evie filled me in on what she did with Kel. She seemed excited as she talked. I stroked her hair as she slept, I wonder what I'd without her. Everyone had one person that supports and motivate them. Evie was that for me and I am so lucky to have her.

Good morning mommy." she greeted smiling widely.

"Morning sweetie, how was your night?" I asked smiling as she did.

"It was great. Can we go bath now I want to meet Kel."

"Kel? What business do you have with him?" it came out harsher than I intended.

"It's a secret." she replied running to the bathroom.

Secret? She tells me everything and now she's keeping a secret from because of Kel. How nice.

We got dressed for the day I just wore a big white shirt and a jean mini short and did the same for Evie. We came out of the room and when we passed by Kel's Evie thought it was a good idea to wake him.

"That's not a good idea Evie." I warned. I've never been to his room, it was off limit.

"But he's your husband, why do you even sleep separately?" she asked and I just stared at her unable to come up with an excuse.

"You can wake him then." I said thinking the door was locked but it wasn't.

She opened the door and ran in, I didn't want to enter the room at first but I did not wanting him to shout at Evie who was already jumping on the bed.

"Wakey wakey kel." she screamed turning the bed to a trampoline

"Evie get down from there now." I said sternly

"No. Wakey wakey kel." she continued and he opened his eyes causing me to gasp.

"Who the hell is it by this time? Today's Sunday for God's sake." he angrily said and he looked up to see Evie grinning.

"I'm sorry, she barged in here to wake you up. It won't happen again." I apologized picking her up.

He looked from me to Evie then sighed frustrated ruffling his hair and it was sexy. I motioned for her to apologize, I was expecting him to do something bad instead he took Evie from me and started tickling her and since she was really ticklish she was laughing in seconds.

"Stop." she screamed in between laughs.

Kel was laughing with her still tickling her and the view melted my heart. It felt nice to see them both this way. Who would have thought Kel would be friendly to a child.

"Why did you even wake me up?" he asked, more like whined.

"You were sleeping too much. It's ten already." she stated and he gave her a look that suggested and so?

I felt awkward just standing not being part of the conversation, I wanted to join in but what was I even supposed to say?

"Why don't you people stay together, other married people do."

"Evie." I warned and Kel looked up at me. Great. Maybe he's thinking I told her to ask him.

"You don't like her do you?" she asked.

"That's enough now. Let's go make breakfast. Aren't you hungry?" I asked scooping her up and she nodded.

She looked from me to Kel and frowned, when she smiled I knew she had come up with something. "Let's all make breakfast."
