“I love my child. I love my child. I love my child,” I told the clear sky
above me. It was an unseasonably warm Saturday in September, and I
was already overheated from losing my patience with Finn.
He yanked on my hand. “Oh! Oh! Oh!”
Go. Go. Go.
“Yeah, go get run over by a car. You won’t like it,” I mumbled, holding
tighter to his fingers as he tried to rush off through the parking lot at the
same time a car pulled out in front of us.
He whined in frustration. “Ooooooh!”
I bit back the string of curses that had been threatening to release for the
last few days and sighed. “You can wait.”
“No!”
Those speech lessons had been working. If only for one word. “No.”
I fought to keep Finn at my side as we made our way to the sidewalk,
and then I let him loose. He sprinted to the doors of Imagination Station and
Play Center, where he was too tiny to grab the handles of the door, so like
any feral three-year-old, he attempted to jump for them and ended up
smacking his forehead.
“Oh Christ,” I muttered, rushing to help him up, checking that he didn’t
display any signs of a concussion. I knew them so well with how often my
child willingly leaped off or climbed on furniture.
“I it,” Finn told me with eyes watering behind his glasses.
“You hit your head, I know. You shouldn’t be jumping around.”
He leaned into me, silently asking for a kiss, and I rubbed the reddening
spot before kissing it. Then he was off as soon as I had the door open.
“There he is!”
I turned toward Jude’s voice, and he had his to-go coffee mug held aloft
in a salute.
“How’s it feel to be famous?”
I trudged over to the bench we always sat on and plopped down at the
end.
Dylan acknowledged me with his usual nod, though his shit-eating-grin
was new.
“Shut up,” I grumbled before he could say anything, and both of my socalled friends laughed. “Seriously. I’ve been getting so much shit the past
forty-eight hours, I can’t…” I pushed my hands through my hair and bent
over, exhausted, embarrassed, angry…everything. It was too much.
“Here. Figured you could use this.” Dylan handed me a coffee. I’d
forgotten mine, so I accepted it gratefully.
Jude passed me a box of brownies. He never went anywhere without
something sweet. Not only was I pretty sure he was addicted to sugar, but
his family owned Gray’s Candy shop.
I helped myself to a brownie, nearly
shoving the whole thing in my mouth, as I watched my third of what was
essentially one big floor filled with imaginary play centers. Among them
were a doctor’s office, a grocery store, a salon, and an auto shop. The kids
loved it.
Well, most of them.
Jude’s eldest, Sebastian, mostly hung by himself in the corner playing
some video game or chatted with us if he was feeling particularly friendly.
The other ones—Amelia, Seb’s sister; Dylan’s kids, Scarlett and Tucker;
