He Called Me Her- Scars and Second Chances   Chapter Twelve
Chapter TwelveELOWEN VALE WINSLOW âSeems like you'll be working late today,â the lady who had directed me around the foundation and its various wings showed me the way to the kids station. I had forgotten the way and I had been fortunate to find her. I glanced at my watch. It was a few minutes after four in the afternoon. I needed at least three hours to get this place started and get a sense of the places that furniture would be placed and places artwork would be. âI suppose so,â I responded grimly. I didn't like the thought of being away from Seren too much and too often. She was too young for that. She deserved to get picked up from preschool by her mother and then be taken home to a nice meal. The lady glanced back at me and I struggled to remember her name as I smiled politely to assure her that I was fine. âYou know,â she began as we stepped into one of the skybridges. I looked through the glass at the playing field where children ran around. The foundation was not yet in

CHAPTER ELEVENMAEL VIRELIS âSo, what did you want to talk about?â I asked Melrose as I wiped my face. I had just finished brushing my teeth and Melrose had been on speakerphone brushing hers too. She loved being on the phone with me as much as she could. It made me wonder why she had still not moved in with me. We had been together for two years and I had popped the question three months ago. Maybe it had all been a little too fast by the standards of other people, but we were both perfectly fine at the pace we were moving. She still lived in Connecticut and came to visit me often. But it would never be as good as her living with me. âYeah soâŚâ she cleared her throat and shuffled in the background. She was climbing into her bed. Good for her. I didn't have that luxury. I still had some work to finish. âI've been thinking about college,â she said. I paused for a second, thinking about it. âReally?â I asked. âWhat changed your mind?âI remember trying to convince her to go to col

CHAPTER TENELOWEN VALE WINSLOW I walked into the lobby, struggling to balance my purse on my shoulder, along with the paper bags that were almost overflowing with groceries. It had been a long day at the Children's facility. From being directed around the campus to meeting some of the children, my favorite part, and then that meeting. I needed to start working on the interior decorations and the art designs.For now, I needed to get dinner ready for Seren and I. I could not help wondering what she and the babysitter had been up to. It had been fairly easy to find a qualified babysitter through an app I had found on my phone. I was going to ask the building manager if it would be okay to install cameras in the apartment. We had been here three days and it had been great so far. Seren liked her room, although I still felt the need to add personal effects of hers to make it more comfortable for her. I would do anything for her comfort. The elevator dinged, telling me I had arrived o

CHAPTER NINEMAEL VIRELISI walked speedily into the lobby of the administrative building of the children's center, accepting all the greetings that were being thrown my way. I made my way into the elevator, noting how bland and bare everywhere still looked. I was glad that things would start looking better soon, since Aunt Greta had finally found the âperfect person'.I still could not understand why some random woman from Portland was the chosen one in my aunt's eyes. It was okay though. Aunt Greta was a little weird and I was used to that. I glanced at my watch. If the elevator did not move faster, I would be one minute late. And there was nothing I hated more than being late to a meeting or having to wait for someone that was late. My phone started to ring just as the elevator doors slid open. It was Melrose. If I wasn't under so much pressure, I would have smiled. I missed her.âHey,â I spoke into the phone, walking down the hallway to the meeting room where everyone else was.
He Called Me Her- Scars and Second Chances   Chapter Eight
Chapter EightELOWEN VALE WINSLOW The drive to the airport was quiet for the most part, except for Seren occasionally humming a song she had been taught in her daycare back at Portland. âWe're here,â Grace announced, glancing back at me from the front passenger seat. The taxi driver muttered an affirmation and I climbed out of the car. I took Seren out of her car seat and placed her comfortably on my hip. She leaned her head against my chest. Grace joined the taxi driver to take her two suitcases out of the trunk and then walked back towards us with a smile. My eyes watered, but I swallowed the emotion. âThank you so much for everything,â I said as I grasped one of her suitcases and walked into the airport. âIt's my job,â Grace smiled. She reached forward and stroked Seren's hair. Seren smiled fondly at her. âWhen are you coming back?â Seren asked even though I had explained to her that we would not be here for Grace to come back to. We would be somewhere else. New York. She d

Chapter Seven ELOWEN VALE WINSLOW âI do it,â Seren quietly said and took her toothbrush from me after I squeezed her strawberry toothpaste onto it. We both brushed our teeth and I raised her to the counter so she could spit out lather easily. She watched me as I spat mine out. âYou done?â I asked with a small smile. She nodded and reached for my sleep shirt. I drew closer to her and she hugged me. My heart melted. The last few days had been hectic and I felt like I had been neglecting her. I kissed her cheek. I massaged her curly hair and reached for her tiny bonnet. I carefully placed it over her hair. It made it easier for her and me to tame her curls in the morning. âI love you, Mommy,â she whispered as I lifted her off the counter and headed out of the bathroom. The suite was very comfortable and child-friendly. I really liked that. âGuess what?â I asked, as we walked into the room we shared. Grace took the other room. She yawned and looked at me through droopy eyes.
