El woke up as Billie ran into her and maxes toom hopping on the bed "mommy!" She giggled as el chuckles "morning sweetie, where's momma?" She asked a little concerned "shes on the kitchen making breakfast as she went in to the kitchen hugging max from behind as max was cutting io green onions "morning sleepyhead" she chuckled and el took a deep inhale enjoying the smell of cologne ,coffee and slight hint of smoke as max was a light smoker (heavy at first, trying to stop for billies wellbeing) she always wanted to try her best that she didnt end up treating Billie like Billy did to her, she didn't like him when he was alive but found herself visiting his grave on Sunday to tell him all about her week, she always asked herself what could've happened if she had been nicer to billy if it wolves changed outcome,her face always displayed when she was thinking of it and el hugged her tighter "max,its ok it wasn't your fault he died, he was protecting us, not you not me, he was what was saving us, o know you blame yourself but theres no one to blame, he did what hame had to do" el comforted her as Billie chimed in "yeah momma! Dint be sad" she said, she was all to young you wrap her head around what max was going through "how about the park to get our mind if off it?" Max offered as both agreed and Billie got a bag of flour for max for the pancakes and tried spilling it everywhere as she started to tear up as max was concerned as she hadn't seen it but remained calm "shh shh, what happened?" She said "i-i tripped with the floor and tried cleaning it up and o tried cleaning it but it just made it worse!' She said her tears about ti come out as max still remained calm "shh shh, for get a bucket of water and the mop and we can clean it up" she said wieoing away bullies tears as billie did so, if max did that was a kid Billy would have hollered at her for it
