I had to babysit Stella today. I wasn't over the moon about this arrangement but Stella wasn't that bad. She was honestly really funny for her age.

Natalie, Stella and I were having a movie day. It wasn't the typical movies we wanted to watch because currently Stella was going through a 'Frozen' phase. It wasn't like Natalie and I were watching much of the movie though.

"No." She simply said.
"Stells, that was deal. Another movie and then a nap." I explained.
"No, no no. I'm not tired, I want princess braids."

She leaned over and kissed me on the lips. Then she walked up to the staircase and walked up it to Stella's room.
I sat on the couch as I heard Natalie and Stella talking upstairs. I scrolled through Instagram and Snapchat and saw clicked on Hollis' story.

And truthfully, for the first time in a long time, I didn't think anything of it.
She seemed happy and that made me happy.
"You wouldn't happen to know where your warden keeps her brush." Natalie yelled from up the stairs.
"Bathroom. And fyi your phone s ringing."
"Pick it up. I'll be right there." She yelled back.
"Hey babe, I just got out of work." A guy said, "What time do you get back from Hannah's?"
