Audrey:
I walked back into the house thankful that Lili was back happy and safe. She will had a good day and that was something that I was happy about.
"Do you have a lot of homework to take care of?" I asked gently. Lili nodded, but a small smile formed on her face.
"Yes, and you are going to help me with it because I remember that you are going to read a book." She said, and I laughed, shaking my head. I had ignored going to the library today, but I could not afford going with Lili being on her first day at school. At least I wanted to be the one to pick her up, and with the number of things that I had to deal with today, I just couldn't find it in myself to go there. It was not an excuse, I knew that.
