"Mommy! Mommy! Mommy!" I heard a small voice.

I felt myself being shook and I slowly opened my eyes.

I rubbed the sleep out of my eyes and saw that my kids were standing over me.

"Hi kids.... What is it?" I asked as I sat up slowly.

"We're hungry," Cecilia said.

I had such a pounding headache.

"Ok... daddy's going to fix your breakfast this morning," I said.

"Daddy's not here," Cecilia said.

"Yes he is.... He's probably upstairs in our bedroom bean," I said.

"No he's not. Mason and I checked there first," Cecilia said.

"Ok... then give mommy a minute and I'll go fix you two something to eat," I said.

I got up off the couch and stumbled a bit.

I know I didn't drink that much last night. I shouldn't have been this hung over.

I went to the hall bathroom and washed my hands and splashed some water on my face.

I also took some medicine to knock this headache out.

I fixed the kids some cereal and as they ate I went to see where their father was.

He wasn't home like Cecilia had mentioned so I called his phone.

His phone went straight to voicemail.

"Caleb what time did you leave this morning? Are you at the club? Call me," I said as I left him a message.

I also texted him to see if he was at work.

Usually he'd let me know he was leaving or at the very least text me to let me know he left early.

I looked at the time and knew I had to get Cecilia to school.

I'd have to get it together real quick if I wasn't going to be late.

I went upstairs to my bedroom and took a quick shower and got changed.

Once I was done I went back downstairs and the kids were finished eating.

I got both kids dressed for the day then left the house with only seconds to spare.

I was able to get Cecilia to school on time and once she was dropped off I sat in the parking lot for a minute so I could check my phone.

I wanted to see if Caleb had called me back.

I checked my phone and saw that he hadn't called or texted.

I decided I'd just stop by the club to see if he was actually there.

I drove to the club still having a slight headache.

Damn how much did I drink last night?

I swear I only had a couple shots and one martini.

I shouldn't be feeling it this hard this morning.

When I got to the club I didn't see Caleb's car parked in the back lot.

He wasn't here.

Where was he?

I pulled out my phone to check it again.
