And Then…You
Group: “Happy Birthday toooo yoouuuuu!”
Bette: “Blow the candles out baby.”
Angelica leaned over the cake blowing as hard as she could only affectively blowing out half.
Tina: “Xavier, honey don’t you want to help Angel blow the candles out?”
The small boy sat staring straight ahead and shook his head. He had been growing more and more uncooperative the longer Stevie stayed away. His small mind couldn’t wrap around the fact that his mommy was gone and maybe not coming back. He also didn’t quite understand she didn’t intentionally break her promise to never leave him again. All he knew was that just like his daddy his mommy was gone now leaving him with little to nothing.
Bette: “That’s ok. How bout we cut the cake then we can open up the presents. Sound good?”
Alice: “Yeah! Come on Angelica. We’ll cut the cake together and make a mess.”
Bette put on a wry smile to her friend in thanks as she watched the small boy sulk around the room. He was still interacting with the other children but his movements were tentative. The confident and rambunctious kid was slowly fading becoming jaded and inactive.
The brunette woman looked at the almond shaped eyes of the boy as she searched for something to make him temporarily happy but found nothing. Those eyes reminded her of the eyes she spent hours gazing into and was totally terrified to never look into again.
Jenny came up next to Bette reading her thoughts and facial expressions easily.
Jenny: “He understands more then he should.”
Bette nodded in agreement.
Jenny: “Shane?”
Bette: “Hospital. She’ll be here later to watch the kids.”
Jenny: “I could always watch them again.”
Bette smiled at her friend. They all had done so much in the last 10 days. 10 days. That’s how long it had been. The more time that passed the more bleak it looked but they all turned a blind eye to that. They had to worry about the kids and keeping things as normal for them as possible.
Bette: “That’s ok really. Shane likes to spend time with Xavier.”
Jenny nodded in understanding.
