People, in the grand schof things, are just too insignificant.
There are so many battles we simply can't win...
"What's wrong with him?" Karen sniffled, looking up with teary eyes. "Did he have a fallout with Dorothy?" Jeffrey pursed his lips. "I don't know. You heard about Everett's mom passing away, right? That's what I meant." "Oh." Karen made a face. "She got what she deserved! If Dorothy hadn't been so helpless, given the whole manslaughter thing, she'd have been behind bars ages ago!" Jeffrey was caught in the middle, unsure if he should agree with his wife. It made sense, but...
That was still Everett's mom, the woman he'd always called Aunt Amanda. Jeffrey had always known she had her issues, frequenting hospitals, but she was a kind soul, always greeting him warmly. He never imagined Amanda could be the one responsible for Dorothy's mom's death.

Karen said there was no news yet, but she had managed to drive Eleanor away.
Dorothy sighed. Given her situation, it wasn't her place to comment, so she chose to remain silent.
Hanging up, she stepped into the Bay Residence. The sounds of Abigail and Langston playing immediately reached her ears, the warmth of hsettling her nerves. After all, it was just these past few days that had Everett upset, which was understandable.
Could he really end things over this? Dorothy couldn't see Everett falling for Quincy. Even if Quincy made her move, it wouldn't matter.
Why was she bothering with jealousy? Could Quincy be by Everett's side at a tlike this? The Caldwell and the Lopez families were close, and Jonathan even wanted Quincy as his daughter-in-law. It was only natural for the Caldwells to be around after Amanda's death.
Dorothy took a deep breath, trying to soothe her own nerves.
Just a little longer, this would pass, and Everett would cback.
She changed her clothes, and Abigail ran over. "Mommy! Brother just tolda joke, it was so funny!" "Yeah?" Dorothy patted her daughter's head, lifting her onto her lap.
Abigail wrapped her arms around her mmy's neck, "Where's Didn't you and daddy always ce together?" Contenty? "Daddy... he's got sthings to take care of." "But daddy always had things to take care of and still chto spend twithand brother every today!" Abigail couldn't get used to a day without seeing her dad.

Dorothy secretly longed to hear, Everett's voice too.
The call went through on the second try, and finally, Everett picked up. The ΝΟΥ content is on novelenglish.net! "What's up?" His voice was a bit cold.
"Daddy!" Abigail blurted out.
"Yeah." Everett's tone softened.
"Daddy, Abigail misses you. Can you chtonight? Mommy says she misses you too!"
