CHAPTER 53

Robbie kicked Janice out of our home.

She came out of nowhere, taking me by surprise, because he was at office and I had never been alone with Janice ever. Robbie never gave a chance to.

She had come in screaming for him and I told her he was not here. She started shouting at me then. She asked me to call him and beg if I had to, for him to come home. I plucked my baby girl out of her swing and frantically called Robbie that Janice was here and demanding his presence.

I walked into the living room to see her angrily throwing Lia’s toy telephone to the wall, breaking it to pieces. I could not be sure if it was the sound of her favourite toy breaking to pieces, made Lia cry or her angry screaming mom.
