The Connor & Ronni Duet:
Excerpt:
Chaos.
Utter. Total. Chaos.
I’m trying my best not to scream. Screaming would be stupid.
Extraordinarily stupid now that the boys have settled down.
I’ve held down the fort on my own in LA for six full days.
The longest motherfucking days of my entire life. The nanny Kris found quit on
day two, despite my offer to double and then triple her pay. She met someone
and is off to Europe, leaving me high and dry.
With me, myself and I to rely on, there’s no choice but to
take up swearing like a sailor. It’s not on brand, I’m America’s fucking
sweetheart after all. I don’t give two shits. Connor’s in Seattle for at least
another week to attend a band meeting after he’s been there helping out after
his father’s stroke. I haven’t had time to even think about posting an ad for a
nanny.
Cussing’s the one thing getting me through the day.
I flop down on my unmade bed. Close my eyes so I can’t see
my surroundings. The entire house is in shambles. I have food stuck in my hair.
My breasts are leaking. I’m a flabby, out-of-shape blob. I’m starving, but too
tired to eat. My gel manicure is peeling. To add insult to injury, my period
came back today. The one-of-a-kind custom pearl-gray sofa I commissioned is
ruined. I bled through onto it when I was napping with Torin splayed out across
my chest.
The bubble has burst. This is not what I signed up for. My
life, as I once knew it, is over.
God, what I’d give to turn back the clock.
Instantly, I feel sick I’d even have that thought. My babies
are my world. I love them desperately. It’s just—the day-to-day is so friggin’
hard. It’s all I can do not to sob.
My phone lights up. Connor. I accept the call, grab the baby
monitor and crawl under the covers. The quicker the call, the faster I can grab
a couple of hours sleep. “Hey.”
“Are things any better? I haven’t heard from you all day.”
Connor “Are things any better? I haven’t heard from you all day.” Connor
squinches his eyebrows together. He looks pale. Disheveled. Exhausted.
I shake my head. Bite my lip. He has enough on his plate
without me adding to it. “No, I’m hoping Kris can let me borrow her admin for a
day or two. At least set up some interviews.”
“I wish you’d reconsider bringing everyone up here. At least
we’d be together.” Connor’s amber eyes are sad. I know he’s crushed at missing
time with his sons.
I sigh. We’ve had this conversation a million times. My gut
reaction is to refuse. My career has been on hold for too long. He’s the one
who unilaterally decided to go to Seattle before we had a plan. Or a nanny. Or
help.
