"Okay we're here. Let's go." I tell Millie as I open the car door.

"I'm so excited!" Millie says jumping up and down. I laugh. This girl sure did miss Marie. Sometimes I feel like she loves Marie more then she loves me.

"A little calm sweetheart. We don't want to scare off Marie." I joke.

"Okay." Millie smiles at me.

"Be on you're best behavior okay? Don't bother Marie too much. I'll pick you up by 7 so you have an entire day to spend with her." I say as we step into the elevator.

"Won't you be spending time with me and Marie daddy?" Millie pouts.

"I'm afraid I can't sweetheart. I have a meeting." I lie.

"Oh." Millie says as she stares at the ground with her mouth in an O shape.

"Behave okay?" I flash a stern look at Millie before ringing the doorbell.

A smiling Marie opened the door and almost immediately Millie was in her arms.

"I missed you so much sweetie." Marie smiles at Millie.
