The visit
Early the next morning, when Carmen came downstairs for breakfast, she saw that Ethan and Dax were already at the table.
So she walked over to the table, pulled out a chair, and sat down.
“Morning, mommy. Ethan said as she smiled at her.
"Morning son,” Carmen said as she stared at him and smiled.
Then she turned to Dax, but he kept his eyes focus on the food, but she still smiled at him and said, “Good morning,”
Although there was tension between them, when Dax lifted his head and saw Ethan staring at him, he gazed at Carmen and mumbled, “Morning.”
A few minutes after breakfast was over, Carmen was about to stand from her seat when Dax finally looked at her and said, “The driver will take Ethan to school. I will drive you to work.”
“But…” Carmen mumbled, pausing for a second as she stared at Ethan.
ReverI am hopeful that before next week I will end this story and sincerely apologize to all my readers that it took this long to do so.

Ten minutes into the drive, she stared into the V-mirror and saw Ethan tightly holding his stomach. “What's wrong, honey?” Carmen asked, looking back for a second before focusing on the road. “Nothing, mommy,” Ethan mumbled as he quickly let go of his stomach. But at that moment, his stomach grumbled, and Carmen couldn't help but giggle. Then she smiled and asked, “Do you want us to stop at a restaurant and grab something to eat.” “Ummm…” Ethan mumbled, staring down at his shoe. “Are you okay?” “Are you?” “What?” After a brief moment of hesitation, Ethan looked into the mirror and mumbled, “Why were you crying, mommy?” “I was just sad.

And it's sure isn't fair to me!"Staring into her watery eyes, Dax ignored the tightness in his chest and asked, "What are you trying to say?""I can't keep doing this.

When the sunlight shone on her, Carmen raised her arm before her face, rolled to her side, and raised her eyelids. Then she blankly stared at the spare pillow, sighed, and mumbled, "There's no way of escaping you, is there?" After taking a moment to fully awake, she sat up, and at that moment, her door opened, and Ethan hurried into the room. Then he jumped on the bed, rushed into her arm, and mumbled, "Morning, Mommy." Smiling softly, she ran her fingers through his hair and gently asked, "You are not mad at mommy anymore?" With a smile on his face, Ethan slightly shook his head and mumbled, "I'm not angry at, mommy, but I am mad at the grey eyes guy." "Ethan," "Grandmother said I should call you for breakfast."

Then she looked at her husband and said, "Give her the paper,"A heavy sigh escaped his lips as Mr. Smith picked up his newspaper from the couch and handed it to Carmen.With a look of hesitation in her eyes, she took the newspaper from her father's hand and opened it."Is the first grandson of the Smith family an Ash or a Davis?"

I believe they think that we are still living together, and are here to ask some questions." Dax said as he stared down from his bedroom window at the crowd outside."Can you get security to remove them?""Well, I could, but I don't want to."For a moment, Carmen kept silent.
