Elsa's POV:

"Mommy, Mommy!" Lila exclaimed when she came out of my parents house. She must have saw my car outside the house.

"Hello, my sweet girl," I said as I picked her up and kissed her forehead. Her arms wrapped around my neck hugging me.

"Did you have fun at grandma and grandpas?" I asked as I walked towards the house.

"Yeah! We played at the park today!" She exclaimed.

"That's awesome!" I said.

"Mommy, Where's Daddy?" She asked.

"He's still at work baby. He won't be home for a little bit," I said. Jack told me to go home early today because he didn't want me to stress.

I walked through the door and saw my mother waiting by the door and sitting on a chair reading a book. My father was sitting in his recliner watching tv which is new.

He's never done that because he is usually working but since the company was passed down to me... he's been like this.

"Hey guys, I hope Lila wasn't too big of a handful," I said.

"She wasn't dear, she was an angel as always," mother said. I looked at Lila and she just grinned. I smiled and kissed her head.

"Good girl. I think we are going to head out now," I said.

"Okay, please come visit us more often," my mother said.

"Yeah, we miss you," my father said.

"We will hopefully," I said.

I grabbed all of Lila's stuff and put them in the car. I put Lila in her car seat and buckled her seat belt. Then got in the drivers seat myself and buckled up.

"Mommy, why is daddy still working?" She asked.

We have a secret we have been keeping from her. We planned to tell her tonight.

"He wanted to stay working a little longer sweetie," I said. She just sighed and nodded.

My phone started to ring. It came up on the car screen saying Jack was calling. I smiled.

"Hey, Babe," Jack said.

"Hey, I just picked up Lila," I said. He's on speaker.

"Hi daddy!" She exclaimed from the back seat.

"Hey baby girl. You're being a good girl right?" He asked. I rolled my eyes and chuckled.

"Yes, when are you going to be home?" She asked.

"I will be home in a few minutes princess. I might beat you guys there," he challenged.

"No way! Mommy and I will be," she said. I chuckled again.

"We will see! I'll see you two at home. I love you guys," he said.

"Love you too," we both said. Then hung up.

"Mommy, Are you and daddy okay?" She asked.

"Yes sweetie. Why are you asking that?"

"I don't know," she said. I looked through my rear view mirror and saw her with her head looking down.

"Sweetheart, what's wrong?" I asked.

"I don't know. You and daddy yell sometimes," she said.

"Sweetie, it's nothing to worry about. We are actually going to talk about it once we get home Okay?" I asked.
