Chapter 22

“Happy birthday to you, happy birthday to you, happy birthday dear Lola, happy birthday to you!”

Jenna laughter at the godawful singing of a house was filled with guests attending Lola’s birthday. She laughed even harder, Vince chuckling at her side, as Lola blew on her candles so hard her little face turned red with the effort. It was her fourth birthday and she was beyond excited for the cake, presents and friends. She bounced around like only a little girl on a massive sugar high could.

“Excuse me,” Jenna said, slipping out of Vince’s embrace and heading to the kitchen for the plates and forks.
