Apple Dash

Monday, April 29, 2013

“Apple Dash,” Sephiroth questioned, “Your really still into My Little Pony?”

“Yes,” I say finish up my outfit on Polyvore. He stares at me with a puzzled expression on his face. “I watch it with Yazoo.”

“Don’t you mean Loz?”

“No Loz watches Dragonball Z Kai and Naruto.”

“And Kadaj?”

“Kadaj is into anything he can get his hands on without anyone noticing. I mean have you seen his side of the room”

Sephiroth shook his head and reached over to my mini fridge to get a Mountain Dew. “So how was work?”

“It was work,” I said.

“How’s Lizzy?”

“She’s fine,” I say, “Are we going to play twenty questions or are you just going to ask what’s on your mind?”

Sephiroth smiles menacingly, “Just wondering if you’re up for some fun before bed.” He walks up behind me and wraps his arms around my waist.

“Nice try Sephy,” I say lifting his arms off of me and snatching the Mountain Dew out of his grip. “Deal with it yourself. I’m not in the mood.”

I shut of my computer and head to our bedroom. “Not even a little,” he calls after me.

“No,” I reply finishing off my drink and tossing the can in the small box we keep in our room for recycling. “Mommy,” I hear my oldest call from his room.

‘What now,’ I think to myself as I let out an annoyed sigh. I walk across the hall to the boys’ room. “What it is love?”

“Can I come sleep with you and daddy,” Loz asks, “I had a bad dream.”

“Get over it and go back to sleep,” Kadaj demands rolling over under the covers.

“Not tonight,” I reply, “Your father’s in a weird mood.”

“I wouldn’t be if mommy would be nice,” Sephiroth called from our room.

“And if daddy doesn’t shut it he’s going to be sleeping on the couch,” I yell back. Loz starts to cry, which sends a pillow flying in his direction.

“Shut up you big cry baby,” Kadaj demanded as Yazoo started to whine.

“All right all three of you chill out,” I yell. “Kadaj! Apologize to your brother.”

“I’m sorry,” He said mockingly. I sigh, “We’re going to have a long talk in the morning young man. Right now I’m to tired to care.” I shake my head giving in to my eldest son, “Come on Loz.”

He jumps out of bed, his pillow in tow and follows me across the hall. “He’s never going to get anywhere in life if you keep babying him,” Sephiroth informs me.

“Couch! Now,” I demand. Sephiroth rises from the bed. He grabs his pillow and a cover and pushes past me as Loz jumps up on the bed. “Not everyone go to sleep,” I cry out as I make my way over to the bed. I fall face first into my pillow.

“What’s wrong mommy,” Loz asks.

“People are stupid, your fathers a jerk and I have no patients left,” I answer bearing myself under the covers. “Go to sleep baby.”

“Goodnight mommy,” He gives me a kiss on the forehead and rolls over hugging his pillow. “Goodnight Loz,” I reply.
