EIGHTEEN

~CLAIR~

I yawn as I walk down the stairs. Everywhere was still dark and quiet since it was still early. Martha was on leave so I needed to prepare the kids breakfast and everything else.

"Clair?".

I jump in fear and turn around to see Luca. "You ass, you scared me!", I yell holding my heart. He chuckles tiredly and walks towards the fridge. "Morning", he says. "Morning. Why are you awake this early?", I ask him. "Work, you?", he says.

"Breakfast and to clean the house", I say. "You are already practicing being a mother", he jokes and I chuckle. "See you in the bright morning", he says as he grabs a bottle of water. I wave at him before he ascends up the stairs.

I turn back to the kitchen and flip on the lights. I breathe relief. He didn't see what I was wearing. My over large Mickey Mouse T-shirt was the only thing on me with my messy hair.

After cleaning up the kitchen and living room and making breakfast. I went up to wake the kids and prepare them for school.
